Carlisle United v Morecambe Your Report added at 18:18:57
An easy journey home as now live near Poole: a fair result, a good point against a good Bournemouth team. In Gerken we have a fine keeper, we don't have to look any further for our No1.
We have a generally solid defence - in the middle Smith and Berra seemed quite as capable as any others in this league. We struggled now and then against some excellent attacking wide play from B'mth, but we won't face that too often.
Up front McGoldrick very hard to play against but didn't get many opportunities. Nouble and, especially, Murphy earned their money with strong pressing play mainly out wide.
Taylor didn't have chance to show much after he came on.
IMO, it's our midfield that stops us being top class at the moment - all good players able to get a foot in, to break play up but we too often gave the ball away cheaply with a misplaced pass. Not always but too often.
My gut feel is that as a team we're nearly there and next season could be ours, especially if we somehow add some finesse to our graft and bravery in midfield.
Finally - a fine showing from all the blue fans who travelled a long way, well done to all.
