Carlisle welcome Wycombe to Cumbria tomorrow hoping to improve on a record which has seen them win only one of the five matches played between the two sides at Brunton Park over the years.
That solitary victory for United coming in the 1995-96 season at the same level of the pyramid that we find ourselves at now. Warren Aspinall, Dean Walling, David Reeves and Tony Gallimore from the penalty spot all scoring for Carlisle in a 4-2 win, in which rhyming David's Carroll and Farrell netted for the visitors in front of 4,459 spectators.
Last time the teams locked horns at Brunton Park Wycombe got the second of their two historical away wins in Carlisle. That 1-0 victory coming in late November of the season that the Blues won the League Two title in 2006. RogerJohnson getting the only of the game as late as the 88th minute as 7,033 fans looked on.
