A pair of entertaining draws against Gateshead and Morecambe over Easter could have put a huge dent in United's hopes to finish in third place and go straight into the play-off semi-finals, but two contrasting results for Boreham Wood mean the gap only shortened by one point, and with three games left to go, that five-point gap means United remain in the best position to gain home advantage in early May.

The first of those three games comes this weekend against Sutton United - a side United still haven't beaten, can they end the hoodoo against the Londoners this weekend?

We look back on the games against the Heed and Shrimps, before previewing the visit of the U's to Brunton Park.

We’re delighted to confirm that the Carlisle United Supporters Trust (CUST) will be sponsoring the Brunton Bugle once again this season.

CUST, formed originally in 2001 as CCUIST and later known as CUOSC, is the supporters' trust for Carlisle United. They are a community benefit society, with a one member-one vote democratic structure. They currently have 10% voting control of the club's holding company CUFC Holdings Ltd and are members of the Football Supporters' Association (FSA).

You can find out more about the Supporters Trust and how to join on their website www.cust.org.uk, or you can contact them on X at @CUFCTrust

As part of this sponsorship, we’ll be working closely with the Trust to provide some additional content this season – keep an eye out for these episodes soon!

-----------------

We've had a few people asking how they can contribute financially towards the pod over the last few seasons - we do this podcast because we love our club and are happy to do it for free, but if you'd like to make a contribution that can help towards hosting, online studio or equipment costs, we would be extremely grateful.

It would go a long way to help us keep providing content for the Blues fanbase across the world for the 2024-25 season!

You can now do this on our Ko-Fi page - ko-fi.com/bruntonbugle. Any donation is really appreciated!
