Mike Williamson left MK Dons to join Carlisle after release clause met
40-year-old manager Mike Williamson took over at Carlisle United on Thursday after a financial agreement was made between MK Dons and United for the move.
Williamson will take a number of his coaching staff with him too with Ian Watson, Chris Bell and Carl Magnay all joining him up north in Carlisle.
The Blues have chosen Williamson as the successor to Paul Simpson who was dismissed at the end of August.
