World Cup winner Neil Back has wasted no time in becoming the latest member of the Blue Army.
The former England rugby union star was in the away section at Morecambe on Saturday.
Back senior was there to watch son Fin play his latest game for Carlisle United.
The man who helped England to World Cup glory in 2003 posed for photos with some Carlisle fans who spotted him in the crowd.
It was the 53-year-old's latest trip to watch his 19-year-old son who has joined the Cumbrians on a season-long loan from Premier League new boys Nottingham Forest.

Fin has impressed in his three pre-season appearances for the Blues, including 73 minutes in Saturday's 0-0 draw in Lancashire against League One opposition.
He is likely to make his competitive debut in the 2022/23 opener.
