Overview

• The Cornish club undertook a near-900-mile round journey of roughly 14 hours to Carlisle, a trip reported as breaking the previous English away-day record of 832 miles between Newcastle and Plymouth in 2009/10.
• Two fixtures later this season are set to be even longer, with Gateshead estimated at about 930 miles round trip and Hartlepool about 890 miles.
• Around 50 Truro supporters were expected at Brunton Park, with no train early enough from Cornwall and travel instead by car or plane.
• TalkSPORT reports Truro face 21 league round trips longer than eight hours this season, including 12 exceeding ten hours and three surpassing 14 hours.
• Truro media chief Gareth Davies described the Carlisle visit as a bucket-list "badge of honour" for fans, while Carlisle manager Mark Hughes noted clubs refine logistics for such long hauls.
