Any positives from the game...

Hallam Hope scored a goal for us against his old club
George Ray back from injury and played 80 mins
Neil Snowball 16 year old academy lad played first team debut
Charlie Brown got on the pitch for last few mins
We end up top of the Group
We get home draw next round

That's a few.

Any positives from the game...

Don't usually qualify, must be first time we've topped the group and haven't got to the regional semi since 2009 in sunny Cleethorpes.

Debut for Snowball
Decent saves by Burgoyne
Brown got on the pitch

[Redalert1970]

Wigan finished 2nd so can we get them or can't you play team from first group

[Keith]

Home to Man Utd U21 would be a good draw. Drag out local Man Utd Sky fans, but should be able to win and get more cash.

I was just beginning to think we might keep a clean sheet

[Redalert1970]

Teams we can get in the draw are as follows...

Tranmere
Port Vale
Wigan (unsure as they were in same group)
Aston Villa 21s
Crewe
Huddersfield
Bradford or Rotherham (they play each other on 19th)
Lincoln

All tough games whoever we get

Was there late changes somewhere?

[Redalert1970]

Yes.. Blackpool ended up winning group and Crewe finished 2nd

Harrogate went out after leading 2 0

[marky No.1]

Yep and Huddersfield scored late goals to leapfrog Man Utd

Can somebody commentate on this match

Those of us at the game were hoping you'd been there to commentate for us!

Most impressive player on the pitch was for me their No 40 Kàdeem Harris who Carlisle signed a few weeks ago on a short term deal until January who has been without a club since returning to England following a period overseas. For me exactly what we are missing in midfield. Someone who can run at a defence with speed and excellent ball control .

Good to see Derek congratulate Snowball on his debut when he was subbed off...
