My friend Mark came up to watch his team [Carlisle] play York in the Conference. Carlisle are second and York are nearly bottom http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/c/carlisle_united/default.stm but Carlisle helpfully levelled things out after twenty minutes by getting their player sent off. Amazingly York won 2-1, which didn’t please the 1,700 Carlisle fans, amongst whom we stood. There were nearly as many Carlisle fans as York, It was good to get to a game, even thought the standard was terrible. Carlisle have a Brazilian striker [who had a stinker] and York have a talented striker who willingly adopted the role of pantomime villain in front of the Carlisle end.
