The Brunton Bugle - A Carlisle United Podcast Brunton Bugle

It's official - statistically, this is United's worst ever season in terms of number of defeats. And there's still one game to go...!
In this week's episode of The Brunton Bugle, Lee is joined by Mike Booth and Adam Tiffen (@adamtiffen18 on Twitter) to reflect on that 3-1 loss to Wycombe Wanderers in the last home game of the season - a miserable way to finish things off for the Blues at Brunton Park for 23/24, with plenty of discussion about some underwhelming individual performances.
That's followed by a look ahead to this weekend's trip to Derby County for the final home game of the campaign - including a great chat with Jake from the excellent Rams Talk podcast about how their nerves are holding up as they look to get the point that will secure them automatic promotion.
On top of that, there's a news round-up and the usual Ex-Blues update.
Your host Lee Rooney is in Liverpool and is joined via the wonders of the internet by Adam Tiffen in Carlisle and Mike Booth in Formby.

Let's be honest - we all want the season to end now, don't we? Another miserable afternoon at Brunton Park leaves us with just two more games to get through.
In this week's episode of The Brunton Bugle, Lee is joined by Adam Tiffen (@adamtiffen18 on Twitter) to look back on the home defeat to Blackpool - not a huge amount to talk about in this game, as all the decent action occurred in the opening 60 seconds!
There's also a look ahead to the final home game of the campaign against Wycombe Wanderers this weekend - including a chat with George from the Wycombe Way podcast about how their season has gone.
On top of that, there's a news round-up - which includes updates from Tom Piatak and a robust discussion about the changes to next season's FA Cup format - and of course, the usual Ex-Blues update.

United's slow-lingering death in League One is over, as defeat at Northampton finally confirms what we've all known for a while - it's back to League Two next season.
In this week's episode of The Brunton Bugle, Lee and Mike review the 2-0 loss at the Cobblers as relegation is confirmed for the Blues - with the game itself being pretty dire, it's more of an initial reflection on what has gone wrong this season (which we'll get more in-depth on in a later episode).
That's followed by a look back on the midweek win at Cheltenham and some of the positives to come out of that (along with thoughts on what United can get out of the remaining fixtures).
We then look ahead to the penultimate home game of the season this weekend against Blackpool - including a chat with Nick from the excellent Seasiders Podcast about how their campaign has gone.
As usual, the episode is wrapped up with the ex-Blues update.

Rinse and repeat - once again this season, United put in a good performance but follow it up with a below par effort in the next fixture!
In this week's episode of The Brunton Bugle, Lee is joined by Adam Tiffen (@adamtiffen18 on Twitter) to look back on the Easter fixtures - with plenty of talk about Jon Mellish's hat-trick heroics in the 3-1 win at Peterborough United, followed by discussion on the defensive mistakes that cost us in the 3-1 home loss to in-form Lincoln City.
There's also a look ahead to this back-to--back away fixtures against Northampton Town and Cheltenham Town - this includes a chat with Danny from the excellent "It's All Cobblers To Me" podcast, where we chatted about how well they have coped with the step-up to League One this season.
On top of that, there's a news round-up and the usual Ex-Blues update.

So near, yet so far - United miss out on their first home win since New Year's Day as Stevenage equalise with the last kick of the game - but surely there's plenty of positives to take from the performance overall?
In this week's episode of The Brunton Bugle, Lee and Mike reflect on the 2-2 draw against Stevenage - plenty of talk about Daniel Butterworth's recent upturn in form, debate about the penalty decision and a robust discussion about Simmo's substitution policy.
We also look ahead to the Easter weekend clashes with Peterborough United and Lincoln City, including a "Behind Enemy Lines" chat with Charlie from the excellent "Stacey West" Lincoln City blog and pod, where he tells us about the interesting back story of their gaffer Michael Skubala.
Alongside those bits, there is a news round-up and the usual ex-Blues update.

There was some good news for United fans this week... the season will be ending two-and-a-half hours earlier than planned! Bad news - we might end our season with a game live on Sky Sports...
In this week's episode of The Brunton Bugle, Lee is joined by Adam Tiffen (@adamtiffen18 on Twitter) to initially answer your questions, including one about whether we'd rather fight Jon Mellish or Harrison Neal in UFC and another about who we'd like to see the Blues sign this summer.
There's also a look ahead to the weekend clash with play-off chasing Stevenage - including a chat with Matt from the excellent Stevenage FC Podcast about their remarkable first season back in League One after promotion.
On top of that, there's a news round-up and the usual Ex-Blues update.
