That is fine but in my post that you quoted, did I even say there wasn't a City version?

Well essentially I was trying to agree with you about the Irish connection, hence the reason I said you never seemed to see a Rangers one attached to the Rags/Scouse hats but plenty of Celtic.

The conversation seems to have moved course a tad.

You couldn't buy any City gear in Carlisle when I was young, it had to be ordered in from a local sports shop, rag and scouse gear all over the place, that is what it was like being a City fan for me, I never saw many City products kicking about.

Do many local kids support Carlisle United now or are they all drawn to the Premier League?

Actually, Carlisle has had a bit of a renaissance on the crowd front, getting 7k+ and sometimes over 10k, I think this weekend there will be over 12k for the Derby County game, a lot of this is on the back of the return of Paul Simpson, dragging the club to promotion last season, ahead of schedule and on a pittance of a budget.

On the youth fan front, there have been a lot of new youth fans and a push for them to form a sort of ultra style group in the Warwick Road End, flags, drums etc, tbf they make quite a bit of noise.

I would think they still had a prem team tbh, you see a lot more City shirts around now, but our son is a Carlisle only fan, so maybe I am doing some of them a disservice.

The wife is a big Carlisle fan and as we do nothing but work normally, she decided we should go to games (a strange type of date night scenario lol), she has always gone prekids/marriage home and away, we took the kids until they wanted to go with their friends and then stopped going.

So I have been to every home game this season for my sins lol
