Carlisle came agonizingly close to winning promotion to the Championship in 2007/08. With just four matches left they had a six point cushion over third place. However they only managed one point from their last four games and missed out on automatic promotion. They then lost to Leeds in the playoff Semi Finals despite winning the 1st leg 2 - 1.
