Solihull Moors will be looking to pick up three much-needed points when they take on Carlisle United on Saturday. Andy’s Bet Club experts are on hand to preview the game, as they will throughout the 2026/27 season. Their site is packed with free football tips , updated daily with expert insight. Match Preview Solihull Moors return home after a 5-0 defeat at Worthing on 10 October in their most recent National League game, in which three goals went in between the 28th and 40th minutes. Worthing created chances worth 2.48 xG, a measure of how likely each shot was to be scored, against 0.97 for Solihull Moors. Carlisle United’s most recent outing in the National League ended goalless at home to Kidderminster Harriers on the same afternoon, although the balance of play leaned heavily their way. Carlisle United had 16 shots to Kidderminster Harriers’ six and built up 2.30 xG to 0.68. Jack Wint in the Kidderminster Harriers goal also saved a stoppage-time penalty from Regan Linney. Solihull Moors Form Guide The first half at Worthing was where the game got away for the Moors. They had 32% of the ball before the break, and Worthing scored through Corey Adjetey-Brew, Razzaq Coleman and Ricky Aguiar in a 12-minute spell. Max Metcalfe faced four shots on target in that half and was replaced by Nathaniel Ford at the interval, when the side also switched from a 4-2-3-1 to a 3-4-1-2. After the change, Solihull Moors held 52% of possession and Ben Wodskou forced a save from Seymour on 51 minutes. Worthing added further goals through Corey Adjetey-Brew on 70 minutes and Dominic Hutchinson in stoppage time. There were individual positives in midfield for the Moors though, with Jamie Andrews making 19 recoveries, and ten of those were in the Worthing half. Carlisle United Form Guide Carlisle United lined up in a 3-5-2 against Kidderminster Harriers and had 59% of the possession. Their PPDA (Passes Per Defensive Action) was 5.9, meaning they made a challenge or interception roughly once for every six Kidderminster Harriers passes. Kidderminster Harriers did not have a shot on target all game, so Adam Desbois was not asked to make a save. Regan Linney was the main source of danger, with four shots, three of them on target, adding up to 1.04 xG. The largest part of that came from the penalty that Kidderminster’s Jack Wint saved in the second half stoppage time. Set pieces gave Carlisle United another route. They won nine corners, and Micah Obiero’s header from one of them in the 73rd minute was worth 0.28 xG. Solihull Moors v Carlisle United Key Duels  Carlisle United’s right flank looks the busiest area of the pitch. Leonard Duru won 17 of his 26 duels against Kidderminster Harriers, including ten of 15 while carrying the ball, and set up three shots for teammates from right wing-back. On that side for Solihull Moors at Worthing, Matty Carson won eight of his 13 duels before being replaced at half-time. Marvin Johnson then took up the left side of the 3-4-1-2 and was the most active crosser there, finding a teammate with two of his five crosses. Alex Whitmore won ten of his 12 defensive duels at Worthing, the best return in the Solihull Moors back line. That matters against a Carlisle United forward line in which Regan Linney had four shots and David Ajiboye three. Further up the pitch, Jacob Wakeling was involved in 37 duels, more than any other Solihull Moors player, and won 14 of them. Conclusion Both of these teams have endured frustrating starts to the 2026/27 season, and will be looking to kickstart it with a positive result at Damson Park.

Chris Millington and his Solihull Moors side will resume their 2026/27 Enterprise National League campaign by welcoming a Carlisle United side, led by former Newcastle Goalkeeper Rob Elliot, to Damson Park on Saturday afternoon. The Moors will know that a win would see them climb the table and take a significant step closer to leaving the drop zone. The Cumbrians are regularly members of the English Football League, but they have found themselves in the fifth tier in recent years, and this year manager Elliot will be looking to get them back to League Two on their second attempt. They know that a win for them could lift them into the top ten. Last time out, Carlisle secured themselves a place in the First Round Proper of this season’s FA Cup after beating Tamworth 2 – 1 at Brunton Park thanks to a brace from forward Regan Linney on the day. As for their most recent National League game, they drew 0 – 0 with Kidderminster Harriers at home. This club has a significant amount of history, with the Cumbrian outfit originally being known as Shaddongate United FC, which was first reported all the way back in 1896 when they won that year’s Carlisle Association Charity Shield at Willow Holme. There were other clubs such as Carlisle Red Rose and Carlisle AFC, with the latter folding in 1899. The new club were gaining momentum, and they had overtaken the aforementioned Carlisle Red Rose by 1903, but by 1906 Red Rose themselves had folded, leaving the club now known as Carlisle United on their own. It was during an annual general meeting at Shaddongate United on 17 th May 1904 that the club was renamed Carlisle United, which has continued to this very day. Interestingly, there were defectors who did try to carry on the name of Shaddongate United Football Club, but they soon disappeared from prominence. Carlisle United’s first-ever Saturday match saw them take on Hexham back on 3 rd September 1904, where they won 3 – 1. And, in the following season, they made their debut in the English FA Cup, eventually losing to the then top side in Cumberland, Workington, 3 – 1 in a replay after drawing 2 – 2 with them in the original game. In 1905, they did compete in friendlies against the likes of Accrington, Darlington, and current Premier League outfit Newcastle United. They also managed to persuade Glasgow Rangers to play them as well on Good Friday that very same year in 1905, with the Gers coming away with what was a narrow 2 – 1 win at Warwick Road in front of a significant crowd of 3,000 overall. We know fast forward to 4 th June 1928, which became a significant date in the history of Carlisle United. On this day, a delegation from the club was bidding for the club’s admission into the English Football League, which had only been founded back in 1888. They were able to succeed in their attempt after receiving 33 votes, the second most, replacing Durham City, who had only secured as few as 11 votes to remain in the EFL. Their first EFL fixture, which was in the Football League Third Division North in August 1928 was against Accrington Stanley who they were able to beat 3 – 2. It was a Carlisle side that included the likes of Prout, Coulthard, Cook, Harrison, Ross, Pigg, Agar, Hutchinson, McConnell, Ward, and Watson. However, they were only able to finish second bottom a few years later, in 1934/35, and as a result they had to resubmit for a place in the EFL; they succeeded, and they haven’t had to do this again since. From 1939 to 1945, which was of course when World War Two took place, Carlisle United decided to only play local football, but by the time that the war was over, the Cumbrians began playing in the English Football League once again under the appointed player/manager Ivor Broadis, the youngest to ever take charge of the team in the club’s history, taking over at the age of just 23. He also then became the first manager to transfer himself when he signed for Sunderland years later, continuing to train and live in Carlisle. He then returned to Carlisle in 1955 after having become an England international. One of the biggest names in football management took charge of the club in 1949 – future Liverpool legend Bill Shankly, who had previously played for Carlisle in his playing days. Shankly was only there until 1951, when he took charge of Grimsby Town, followed by Workington and Huddersfield Town before then famousl y taking charge of Liverpool back in 1959. He was there for 15 years between 1959 and 1974, winning the First Division title three times, the Second Division title once, winning the FA Cup twice, the FA Charity Shield three times, as well as a European honour in the form of the UEFA Cup, now the UEFA Europa League, once in the 1972/73 season. Back to Carlisle United, they were members of the English Football League Third Division North until 1958, when it combined with the Third Division South to become what became known as the Fourth Division, now League Two. They remained there until 1962, though after relegation, they were immediately able to return to the English Football League in the 1962/63 season. In 1964, they were able to gain promotion up to the Third Division, and then in the 1964/65 season, they spectacularly won the third tier title and became part of the Second Division and just one step away from reaching the top flight for the very first time. Carlisle would go on to spend more than 12 years in the Second Division, 11 of them with a top half finish, coming third in 1966/67, fourth in 1970/71, and third in 1973/74. This third place finish saw them gain what was a historic promotion to the First Division, and at the end of the 1971/72 season, they competed in the Anglo-Italian Cup that saw them go toe-to-toe with Italian Giants AS Roma, who they were able to beat 3 – 2 incredibly at the iconic and historic Stadio Olimpico stadium in the Italian Capital. In the early stages of the 1974/75 top flight season, they found themselves in top spot after winning all of their first three fixtures, which included a 1 – 0 triumph over Tottenham Hotspur in front of as many as 18,426 spectators at Brunton Park. However, by the end of the decade, they fell down the English Football League pyramid, and by the time that the 1976/77 season came along, they were now back in the Third Division for what was the first time in as many as 13 years. In the 1981/82 Third Division season, they were fighting for the title, though they only missed out on goal difference in the end. It was under manager Bob Stokoe, and they were of course still promoted back to the Second Division as runners-up to Burnley. Current Premier League side Fulham were also promoted to the Second Division that term. Then, in the latter stages of the 1980s, they dropped back down to the Fourth Division in 1987, which was to be their first experience of that league since 1964. In 1988/89, they came 12 th in the Fourth Division, and in the same season they were only knocked out of the FA Cup in the Third Round Proper by the defending top flight Champions and eventual winners of that season’s FA Cup competition, the mighty Liverpool. By the early 1990s, they still found themselves in the Fourth Division, and a promising start to the 1990/91 season brought about optimism that this may be the season they finally get themselves promoted. However, bad form in the latter part of that campaign saw them fall and finish as far down as 20 th place. In the summer of 1992, Michael Knighton, who had tried to takeover Manchester United a few years before in 1989, became the new Chairman and Chief Executive of Carlisle United Football Club. He invested £4.5 million between 1992 and 1996 to help improve Brunton Park, which included a new 6,000 seater South Stand that was opened by football legend Nat Lofthouse. Knighton then announced the intention for Carlisle to become a Premiership club by 2003 before the 1993/94 season began. In 1993/94, they won the Third Division for the second time in the club’s history, winning the Third Division title with a club record of 91 points overall. Then in 1995/96 they were favourites to win the Second Division title, though they were controversially relegated back to Division Three after the fixture between Brighton and York was rearranged to be played after the formal season had concluded. In 1996/97, they bounced back to Division Two at the first attempt automatically, finishing in third behind Wigan Athletic and Fulham. On 8 th May 1999, they completed a historic and well-known great escape from relegation from Division Four for the first time since 1928. Scarbrough, a rival for Carlisle, only needed to draw against Peterborough United for the Cumbrians to survive. Carlisle were also drawing into second-half stoppage time at Brunton Park, and in the 95 th minute, an iconic goal from Goalkeeper Jimmy Glass secured the win and survival for Carlisle. Knighton left the club in June 1999 after resigning as Chairman and putting his shareholding in CUFC Holdings Ltd up for sale. In the early 2000s, Carlisle had fallen out of the English Football League, though they did manage to finally return after beating Stevenage Borough 1 – 0 in the 2004/05 Promotion Play-Off Final at the Britannia Stadium in Stoke. It was done under manager Paul Simpson, though he left them after securing the League Two title in 2005/06, leaving for Preston North End. Simpson was succeeded by Neil McDonald. They lost in the playoff semi-final to Leeds in 2007. Fast forward to September 2014, they were desperately fighting for safety in the English Football League and hung on to their place in League Two. Under manager Keith Curle, they secured safety with two games to spare, and the next season, 2015/16, they finished in 10 th , never really competing for promotion though. Curle left the club at the end of the 2017/18 season following a 6 – 5 aggregate loss to Exeter City in the playoff semi-finals. Then, in February 2022, the aforementioned Paul Simpson returned to the club to take charge once more with his side in 23 rd place. He kept them in League Two with what was a 20 th place finish before then agreeing terms to a new three year contract. In 2023, they finally secured promotion back to League One after beating Stockport County on penalties in the promotion play-off final after drawing 1 – 1. It ended what was a nine year stint in League Two. Unfortunately, in 2023/24, they were unfortunately relegated back to the Fourth Tier after finishing in 24 th place, finishing bottom with them being 16 points adrift from safety in the end. Then on 3 rd February 2025, Mike Williamson, Simpson’s second successor, was sacked with the club sitting five points adrift of safety in League Two. Williamson was replaced by former Stoke boss Mark Hughes, but he was unable to prevent them from being relegated down to the National League come the end of the 2024/25 season. In 2025/26, they finished in third place in the Enterprise National League with 95 points after playing 46 games. They lost to Boreham Wood in the playoffs, losing 2 – 1 at home in extra time. They will be hoping to get promoted back to League Two come the end of the 2026/27 Enterprise National League season. In the opposition dugout – Rob Elliot Current Carlisle boss Rob Elliot has been in charge since he was appointed as The Cumbrians’ Manager back on 28 th May 2026, which was just before the start of the current 2026/27 Enterprise National League season. This is not his first job in senior management, having previously been in charge of the likes of Gateshead (2023 – 2024; 2026) and Crawley Town (2024 - 2025). In his playing career that spanned 20 years as a Goalkeeper from 2004 and 2024, he played for the likes of Charlton Athletic (2004 - 2011), Bishop’s Stortford (Loan, 2004), Notts County (Loan, 2005), Accrington Stanley (Loan, 2005 – 2006; Loan, 2006 - 2007), Newcastle United (2011 - 2020), Watford (2021 - 2022), and finally the aforementioned Gateshead from 2022 to his retirement in 2024. Key Player – Regan Linney Striker Regan Linney is arguably Carlisle’s key player, with the forward being their current leading goalscorer as of the time of writing, with as many as 6 goals having been scored by the 29-year-old. He recently scored a brace against Tamworth in the Fourth Qualifying Round of the FA Cup, securing his team a place in the First Round Proper following a 2 – 1 win at Brunton Park. Linney has been a player since 2015, having so far played for the likes of Bamber Bridge (2015 - 2019), FC United of Manchester (2019 - 2023), and Altrincham (2023 - 2025) before then joining current club Carlisle United back on 30 th May 2025, signing a three-year contract with the Cumbrian club.

Difficult times test every football club and this is the first time for many years that Moors is experiencing such a period. We remain an ambitious, inclusive and welcoming community club and it is these foundations which will serve us well at this time. Recent performances and results have fallen well below expectations of the First team management, Board and our especially our loyal supporters, who deserve better. We all put our heart and soul into this wonderful community club. Accordingly, we completely understand and share the collective frustration and disappointment and, most of all, we accept our responsibility to leave no stone unturned to put things right. Within the club, we are looking at every angle to improve results whilst ensuring stability and being guided by the values and best interests of the club. We knew this would be a transitional season as we implemented a medium term plan to get the club back to challenging at the top end of the table, after the last 2 relatively disappointing campaigns. This has involved the strengthening of the Board with younger, experienced commercial blood but with equal passion and commitment to the long term sustainability of Moors. We knew this would take time and clearly didn’t anticipate the poor start to the season. We believe there are multiple mitigating circumstances but are in no doubt results need to improve rapidly. We may have differences of opinion - that is the beauty of football - but one thing must never be in doubt: our collective commitment to serve the best interests of Solihull Moors. Board, players, first team management, staff, and, most of all, supporters - we all have our part to play. Our greatest strengths have always been our unity, our positivity and our mutual support. These strengths are even more vital over the next few weeks and months. Let’s get behind each other and the team - and all play our full part in lifting the mood and improving results. Come on, you Moors!

Solihull Moors were beaten 2-1 by Kidderminster Harriers at Aggborough Stadium in the fourth qualifying round of the FA Cup, as Chris Millington's men missed out on the chance of been involved in Monday night's first round draw. Team news Nat Ford started in goal in place of Max Metcalfe. Jevon Mills, Marvin Johnson and Ben Wodskou also came into the side, replacing Tyrell Warren, Matty Carson and Oscar Rutherford from last week's National League defeat against Worthing. Kick-off The referee was busy early on in a frantic start, booking both Jacob Wakeling and Kidderminster's Richard Faakye inside the opening 4 minutes of the game, and Ben Wodskou having a goal disallowed as Joe Sbarra was offside in the build-up. GOAL - 15' Kidderminster. The home sides first chance of the game fell to Lewis Walker. After a nice passage of play, the forward collected the ball on the edge of the box and fired an effort into the back of the net. Kidderminster 1-0 Moors. A chance for The Moors followed, with Joe Sbarra driving a low shot narrowly wide from outside the area, courtesy of a deflection, and out for a corner. Walker was then almost involved in another goal for the hosts, teeing up midfielder Callum Dolan, who's powerful drive flew just past the post. Jamie Andrews had a tame effort easily dealt with by on-loan Manchester City goalkeeper Jack Wint, as Solihull put the pressure on and forced mistakes in the Harriers defence. Captain Alex Whitmore was desperately unlucky to see his effort hit the post when he met a deep corner with a header at the far post. On the stroke of half-time, Marvin Johnson broke through and dragged a shot across goal from a tight angle, with the ball going the wrong side of the post against one of his former clubs. Half-time score - Kidderminster 1-0 Solihull Moors. Second half GOAL - 53' Kidderminster. A second goal for the Aggborough side came when Davis brilliantly found his team-mate Callum Stewart in the box, before the forward, on-loan from Shrewsbury, turned and poked past Nat Ford in the Solihull goal to put the hosts two goals ahead. 2-0 A second chance of the game fell to Johnson, who again struck from an angle, this time getting his shot in target, only for Wint to palm the ball away to safety. GOAL - 58' Moors. Scott High did well to disposses David Davis, before the Moors midfield man stroked home into the bottom left corner to bring his side back into the game. 2-1 It was then almost a disaster for The Moors, when a back-pass was played short to Nat Ford, and left-back Reece Devine reacted quickest as he burst through on goal, and chipped the ball over the keeper, but saw his effort hit the top of the bar. A major let off for the away side. Moments later Ford was involved again, this time superbly reacting when a vicious cross was whipped in from Dolan and deflected goalwards by a Moors defender. Great goalkeeping to keep his side in the game and prevent an own-goal. Moors Manager Millington sent on Elias Kachunga and Henry Rylah, making his second debut of the season for Solihull, returning on-loan from Charlton after his initial loan spell was cut short by injury. The duo replaced Jevon Mills and Ben Wodskou. The influential Johnson was on the attack again, putting a dangerous ball into the box, which found Kachunga, but the forward could only put his effort wide of the target. Florent Hoti then replaced goalscorer Scott High, as Solihull tried to find a way to level the game with 10 minutes left to play. Whitmore did brilliantly to deny a dangerous opportunity for Kidderminster in the final minute, timing his challenge perfectly to prevent Devine getting a shot away from close-range after been sent through on goal by Walker. Deep into second half stoppage time, Moors had one last chance, winning a free-kick right on the edge of the box. Johnson struck low and hard, but saw his effort fantastically saved by Wint, before the referee blew the final whistle and The Moors head out the FA Cup.

Solihull Moors are delighted to confirm that Henry Rylah has returned to the Club on loan until January from Charlton Athletic. The 20-year-old attacker previously joined the Moors earlier this season and now returns to bolster Chris Millington’s squad. Rylah came through the academy at Charlton Athletic and has made three senior appearances for the Addicks. He also gained valuable first-team experience during a loan spell with Derry City earlier this year.  Welcome back to the Moors, Henry! 💛💙

Solihull Moors travel to the Aggborough Stadium to face Kidderminster on Saturday in the FA Cup 4th round of qualifying, and Andy’s Bet Club experts are on hand to preview the game, as they will for the 2026/27 season. Their site is packed with free football tips , updated daily with expert insight. Match Preview Solihull head into their FA Cup tie with Kidderminster on the back of a 5-0 defeat at Worthing in the National League, but did beat Everton U21 1-0 in the National League Cup midweek. Worthing scored three times between the 28th and 40th minutes, added two more in the second half and finished with 13 shots to the seven managed by Solihull. Kidderminster Harriers played on the same day and came away from Carlisle with a goalless draw. They had 41% of the ball and spent long periods defending, with Carlisle taking 16 shots and missing a penalty in stoppage time. Solihull Moors Form Guide Worthing edged the xG last Saturday 2.48 to Solihull’s 0.97. The first half did the damage, with Cory Adjetey-Brew, Razzaq Coleman De-Graft and Ricky Aguiar all scoring while Solihull had only 32% of the ball. There were signs of attacking promise from the Moors in the final third, where they had eight deep completions, meaning passes received within 20 metres of the opponent’s goal, to two for Worthing. Kidderminster Harriers Form Guide Carlisle finished on 2.30 xG to 0.68 for Kidderminster, and the clean sheet owed a great deal to Jack Wint. He made four saves, all recorded as reflex saves, including a stop from Regan Linney’s stoppage-time penalty. Kidderminster made 52 interceptions and 43 clearances, and their PPDA of 15.6 means they made one defensive action for roughly every 16 Carlisle passes. The Harriers currently sit 11th in the National League, but are without a win in their last five games. Tactical Insight The contest between Jacob Wakeling and the Kidderminster centre-backs could shape this tie. Against Worthing, he was involved in 37 duels and won 14, and his six touches in the penalty area were the most of any Solihull player.  Both of his shots were on target, although he lost all six of his aerial duels. Conclusion Despite being second-bottom in the National League, Solihull will fancy a cup tie against a Kidderminster side completely out of sorts.
