United Reserves 4-1 Gillford Park

Last updated : 07 April 2011 By Thetashkentterror

Team news - Carlisle start in a 3-3-1-3 formation with players named left to right, at the back Steven Swinglehurst. Graham Kavanagh and skipper Danny Livesey, in midfield Ben Mckenna, Josh Todd and Brad Potts, while Nahki Wells sits in behind a front three of Ryan Bowman, Rory Loy and Paddy Madden, substitutes bench consists of five first-year YTS players. United attack the Waterworks End in front of a very sparse West Stand attendance in the first-half and soon change to 4-4-2 in a game of fluid tactics for the Blues with so many attacking players in the starting eleven.
