Show by Chris Lumsdon, Mark 'Skip' Boyd & Dylan McGeouch

Chris Lumsdon, Mark “Skip” Boyd and Dylan McGeouch take the podcast to Game On Carlisle for an episode packed with football debates, career stories and some fiercely competitive bowling.The lads reflect on Carlisle United’s remarkable victory over Harrogate with only nine men and explain why that night may have completely transformed the relationship between the players and supporters.After another encouraging result against Salford, Lummy makes a bold prediction: Carlisle can close the gap on Boreham Wood and comfortably finish second.They also give Rob Elliot huge credit for surviving the pressure surrounding his position, sticking to his beliefs and building a team that finally appears ready to fight for the club.Elsewhere, the lads discuss reports that Jack Grealish missed training following a night out. Is he one of football’s last remaining characters or is he wasting the final years of his career?Attention then turns to the Premier League. Are Arsenal effective but boring to watch, and is Declan Rice genuinely one of the world’s best midfielders? Dylan explains why Rice may struggle to command the midfield for teams such as Barcelona, PSG or Real Madrid.The lads also revisit the Harry Kane versus Michael Owen debate, share stories from difficult loan spells and reveal the lowest moments of their professional careers.Also featuring:- Why the Harrogate victory changed everything for Carlisle- Rob Elliot’s turnaround- Can Carlisle catch Boreham Wood?- Why Carlisle’s squad depth could become a problem- Carlisle’s incredible attendances- Jonah Lawson’s first-team opportunity- Harry Kane versus Michael Owen- Jack Grealish reportedly missing training- Lummy being approached for First Dates- Harry Kane’s difficult early loan spells- Dylan’s experience at Coventry City- Are Arsenal boring to watch?- Is Declan Rice world-class?- The lowest points of the lads’ careers- The reality of recurring football injuries- Playing with a broken toe and nose- Manchester United’s continued problems- Character versus talent- Who Am I?- Most appearances and career goals- Footballers giving women “the ick”TIMESTAMPS00:00 Welcome to Game On Carlisle00:58 Competitive bowling and VAR controversy01:31 Colin Hendry’s fundraising event01:58 Jack Grealish reportedly misses training03:16 Welcome to the podcast03:40 Dylan messages Cristiano Ronaldo04:24 Carlisle’s extraordinary nine-man victory05:18 Rebuilding the connection with supporters05:46 Rob Elliot deserves huge credit06:40 Carlisle’s incredible squad depth07:19 Can having too many players cause problems?08:09 Lummy’s bold Carlisle prediction09:00 Carlisle to win promotion?09:40 Are fire sticks hurting football attendances?10:55 Jonah Lawson takes his opportunity12:00 Why promotion is crucial for Carlisle’s academy12:17 Harry Kane versus Michael Owen13:43 Lummy was approached for First Dates15:59 Harry Kane’s failed loan spells16:34 Lummy’s difficult Blackpool loan18:26 Dylan’s Coventry City loan20:55 Are Arsenal boring to watch?22:06 Is Declan Rice one of the world’s best?22:49 Jude Bellingham has everything23:13 The lowest moments of their careers24:07 Dylan’s difficult Sunderland move25:02 Dylan’s recurring injury problems27:07 Do injured footballers receive unfair criticism?27:43 Playing with a broken toe28:39 Lummy plays with a broken nose29:23 The best and worst television game shows32:54 Who Am I?38:46 Who made the most career appearances?42:05 Who scored the most career goals?43:18 An incredible football coincidence45:32 What’s the Crack?45:40 Carlisle United versus Newcastle United48:17 Manchester United’s problems49:04 Character or talent—which matters more?50:45 How the Harrogate red cards united Carlisle51:13 Footballers giving women “the ick”52:03 Derry’s cup victory54:20 The Game On bowling challenge55:27 Weekend plans and final messages COMMENT BELOW: Do you believe Carlisle United can finish second this season?And settle the debate—at their absolute peak, are you choosing Harry Kane or Michael Owen?Subscribe to 3 In The Middle for weekly Carlisle United discussion, football debates and dressing-room stories from former professionals.#3InTheMiddle #CarlisleUnited #JackGrealish #DeclanRice #FootballPodcast
