Head Coach Update: All change as it's Sparky Out, Elliot In - Season 25/26, Episode 50

It only took 25 days, but United have finally given an update on the Head Coach situation at Brunton Park and it's all change for the 26/27 season - Mark Hughes departs by mutual consent, with former Gateshead and Crawley boss Rob Elliot stepping into the hotseat.

While it took a while, the clarity is clearly much appreicated from the Blues support. We take the time to look back on Sparky's time in charge of the club and the impact he had on stopping the decline and discuss what the new man in charge might bring that can help us get back into the EFL.

Lots discussed in this episode, including:

⚡️ Sparky Departure - What is his legacy?

🧑‍💼 The new boss - Elliot takes the reins

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!
