Carlisle manager Greg Abbott is happy with his team's pre-season progress following the 4-0 win at Barrow.

A brace from Mark Beck and goals from Andy Welsh and Matty Robson did the damage and Abbott now plans to give players more game time to step up fitness levels.

He told the club's official website: "It was another good game for us and one where we were able to start to give a few players a little bit longer.

"Obviously that meant others had to sit it out, but we'll try to work it over the next few weeks where everyone is building up their pitch time and match sharpness."
