    If this statement is right - that there was no consultation with EFL or non-lge clubs over key changes to the national knockout competition - then heads should roll, and all clubs should stand with Tranmere. Cast of enablers will be interesting too. Game at the highest is rotten.

    Here at Carlisle United, a group of young fans are giving up their half-term week to spruce up the Warwick Road End at Brunton Park. It's their own initiative and is backed by the club and fan representatives. Absolutely fantastic stuff. More coverage to follow @newsandstar #cufc

    "Your club" is the most insidious part of this. It tries to present billionaires/obscenely wealthy clubs making 55 employees redundant as an unavoidable part of the people's game. Dismal.

    Not been on here for a while, and won't be for a bit longer, and here is why: our beautiful daughter Susie, born last Tuesday. Her mum is a hero, the maternity staff at the Cumberland Infirmary are wonderful, her dad is utterly besotted - and sleep is a fading memory... 🥰

    A great gesture from Fin Back's parent club Nottingham Forest, who have waived Carlisle's contribution to his wages whilst he recovers from injury. An update on the Blues' other injured players was given by Paul Simpson today too #cufc #nffc @newsandstar

    This wasn't easy to do, and is the most personal thing I've written but, as it will be the first football season I won't be able to share with my dad, I wanted to write something about our lifetime of following Carlisle United together: newsandstar.co.uk/sport/17813923… #cufc @newsandstar

    😡Carlisle have today joined the strong condemnation of the "disgraceful" changes to the #FACup and lack of consultation. Director John Nixon, an FA Council member, was only informed 15 mins before the announcement, they say⤵️ READ: newsandstar.co.uk/sport/24264206…

    Random idea for the "big clubs" /Premier League: piss off out of the EFL Trophy and use your massive squads of professionals in the occasional #FACup replay instead.
