Carlisle United fans have been given a mouthwatering new fixture to look forward to - a date with the Johnstone's Paint Trophy at The Lanes Shopping Centre.

The prestigious trophy will be on show at the centre on Tuesday 9 March from 11am until 3pm.

There will be an opportunity for fans to have their photo taken lifting the Johnstone's Paint Trophy as interest in the big final on March 28 reaches fever pitch.

As an extra bonus, Johnstone's are offering fans that wear their club colours an official Johnstone's Paint Trophy mini-ball to take home with them.

Johnstone's will also be giving away other Johnstone's Paint Trophy goodies on the day along with offering fans 20 per cent discount at their local Johnstone's Decorating Centre and the opportunity to enter a prize draw to win one of 10 pairs of tickets to the final!

Johnstone's Paint Trophy sponsorship manager Teresa Hardwick said: "Trophy fever is gripping Carlisle and Cumbria and everyone at Johnstone's is delighted that the fans are getting behind their team.

"So to add to the excitement the trophy will be available for fans to pop into The Lanes Centre and help celebrate their team's trip to Wembley."
