A rare sight at Brunton Park for a while - goals galore, as United and Stockport play out a humdinger of a game in CA1 but is a point not a huge amount of use to either side in their push for automatic promotion?

In this episode of The Brunton Bugle, the lads look back on a 2-2 draw that was a brilliant advert for League Two football - lots of chat about Simmo's tactical switch, Jon Mellish scoring with his appendage and some of the best away fans we've seen at BP this season.

We also look ahead to the Cumbrian Classic/A595 Derby/just another game (delete as appropriate) as United make the trip down the coast to take on Barrow - we catch-up with Freya from BBC Radio Cumbria's excellent "Out of the Blue" CUFC and Barrow podcast about how the Bluebirds are getting on this season - with discussion about the change from following a non-league side to an EFL side, how Pete Wild's first season in-charge at Holker St has got on and the growing "rivalry" between the two sets of fans..

There's also a news update and a round-up of how Ex-Blues got in in the last week.

Your host Lee Rooney is in Liverpool and is joined via the wonders of the internet by Dan MacLennan in Carlisle. You can find us on Twitter @bruntonbugle, Facebook (search for "Brunton Bugle") and email us with any questions, suggestions and feedback to bruntonbugle@gmail.com.
