How do I start about Saturday's trip to Carlisle? I had a great day? Yes, but it barely sufficient to say just that. Superb, brilliant, memorable etc etc, might just about do it justice!
Despite loads of people questioning my sanity about doing the long trek to the frozen North (there was even snow on the hills outside of Carlisle) especially with a plastered leg!! I had missed out on Crewe for this reason & wasn't going to get talked out of it again!
I was fortunate enough to travel in comfort with JamesTheSuperBlue, his family, a family friend & SUFCJoe. Comfort & lots of laughs made the 330+ mile journey fly past, I'm just glad I didn't have to do the driving. Top marks for Mike who drove the entire journey, as I would have needed a crate of Red Bull to drive all that way! Cheers Mike.
The game itself was brilliant, especially the way we ripped them apart in the first half & stood up to their bully boy tactics in the second. Superb!!
One last bit, I cannot express my gratitude enough for all the help I was given or offered by so many people, many I had never met before. It made my life a lot easier, so thank you all who helped me.
I've put links below to a few of my photo's of yesterday, so feel free to re-live it again. Re-live the helicopter, which was their idea of pre-match entertainment & remember what a sh!t hole their ground was too. I've even included a few of the celebrations too!! I didn't include a few dodgy photo's of JamesTheSuperBlue or his brothers! I will leave that to them to do!

I promise I will learn how to do this properly soon, honest. :dim:
