League Two side Carlisle have confirmed the signing of Tom Parkes from Leyton Orient.


The defender agreed a two year deal with the Os after leaving his former club at the end of last season. The 25-year old plays dominantly in the centre half role. He featured in 44 games last season but Orient were relegated from the football league so he had to look elsewhere.

Current manager of Carlisle Keith Curle said that Parkes has the experience and that the player is hungry to achieve things. He praised the player’s communication skills as well.

“We’re all looking forward to working with him because we think he will have a positive impact on the group,” Curle added.

The player is a product of Leicester academy and has played in various sides that include Burton, Yeovil, and Bristol Rovers. He was on loan at the Rovers but the deal was made permanent in 2012 and he eventually became the skipper. He joined Orient last year but he was not able to keep them afloat.

At the time of writing this article, Carlisle United is the only club of the English League Two that has not sustained a single league defeat as they have secured 6 triumphs and 7 draws out of their opening 13 matches of the current season.


The latest league match of Carlisle United was against Hartlepool United in a match that was played on October 15 and resulted with Carlisle edging out a victory with a final scoreboard of 3-2.

This victory over Hartlepool United was especially meaningful for Keith Curle and his squad due to the fact that they had to compete with only 10 players in the pitch for almost the entirety of the 2nd half and Carlisle United still managed to come out on top with the triumph despite having fewer players in the pitch which shows just how impressively they have been performing in this season.

Carlisle United coach Keith Curle reflects on his two years in charge of the club in a recent interview.


The 2005 floods is one that cannot be forgotten in the club’s history. The club framed an aerial picture of the old stadium grounds being covered with dirty water. The picture is obvious as visitors move through the glass doors at the stadium.

“It’s two years now, but it doesn’t even seem like a week since I walked into the building and got met with picture of the flood. That is something else that is changing,” Curle said.

“It’s not going to be the welcome now in the football club. Yes, it’s a talking point inside the corridors, but we don’t want it in reception. There’s more to this football club than devastation,” Curle added disapproving of the picture. Curle joined United in the summer of 2014, and he has helped the side since joining.

After the flood, Carlisle were relegated from the League One, then they dropped further as they struggled to win games in the League Two. When Curle is asked to sum up his stay at the club so far, he opined that the club is in need of fumigation. The avoidance of defeats in the current season seems to reflect progress, and Curle seems happy with the new spirit in the city.
