Abbott to stay with Cumbrians

Abbott's future with the Cumbrians had come under threat after they needed a final-day victory over Millwall to ensure their League One status.But after the board met to discuss his role on Thursday, they unanimously decided that Abbott - who was only appointed in November - deserved the chance to build his own team and lead the club through a full campaign."We want to bring continuity and stability to the club. Now is not the time for more changes," chief executive David Allen told the club's official website."Greg is in his first permanent post as a manager and he has a contract to take him through to the end of next season."We will be doing everything we can to help him bring success to Carlisle United in that period."
