Carlisle is well north and I travelled most of the way up on the Friday evening before. The journey up the motorway through the snow spotted hills was a delight but for a small worry about the weather on the way back. I parked up in one of those football fuelled car park for £2.50 and an offer of my fifth park being free!
This stadium is a mixture of every type of stand known to the twentieth century; stands for standing, stands for seats, stands for kids, and stands built up of sections for standing, sitting and executive boxes. Not a massive crowd but for a cold day in February not bad for a fixture of two sides looking safe but not secure yet.
I enjoyed a PG Tips tea for £1.70 and a jumbo sausage roll to warm me up and at half time was easily able to get another tea and Mars to bolster my fuel intake.
The match was entertaining with three goals, all talking points and the home side took a very useful three points.
I recommend the trip and there are plenty around about to make it worth a making a weekend of it.
