March Offers At Carlisle United

A busy period of matches is approaching at Brunton Park and Carlisle United are looking to keep people coming through the turnstiles with a number of ticket offers.

There was a lovely article in the February edition of When Saturday Comes that highlighted the dilemma that faces Carlisle in deciding whether to ever move away from their historic home, talk of which pops up at regular intervals.

Brunton Park is ageing and its upkeep is expensive but it does maintain the kind of character that a new stadium could never possess while being easily accessible from the city centre with all of the local pubs and cafes that go with that.

In the great rush towards building new grounds that we saw in the late 90's and at the turn of the century there was a kind of keeping up with the Joneses mentality and the planned projects were invariably talked of as win-win scenarios.

The sense of what might be lost is greater now that the downside of moving away from traditional homes can be seen, drastically so at Darlington and Coventry but even perhaps at clubs like Chesterfield where supporters next season look set to be watching National League football without the comfort blanket of being at Saltergate.

Anyway, it's Brunton Park for now and Carlisle have the following March offers in place.
