Cumbrians pass on latest batch of hopefuls

Carlisle boss Greg Abbott has opted against signing any of the trialists who have been looking to earn contracts with the League One club. David Hutton, Kevin Long, Jose Maria Cases and Edgar Chumillas Lopez have all now departed Brunton Park. Abbott is still keen to bolster his ranks before the summer transfer window slams shut, but will now be turning his attention elsewhere. He told United's official website: "As with the other trial players we have seen this season, they all gave us something to think about. "They showed an excellent attitude and we enjoyed working with them, but we have decided there is no immediate place for them in the squad at the moment."
