Hard fought victory and playing against 12 men. No not the ref but MR and his starting lineup

Big win!

Too much moaning on here imo. Too driven by scoreline. Lati shit jDS shit etc. no there not. jDS had a v good second half and lati showed why he's rated by doing a job in centre mid. Such a big weapon in our arsenal to have a utility player.

Wright showed that the number 9 conundrum is a tactical issue not really down the individual

Torp was brilliant I thought.

Back in top 6. We're a good team and have a good chance at making playoff. On to the next one

Great win


Fair play to Millwall, who got the goal and then looked very hard to break down, but in the end we deserved it.

Two goals from Wright. Should most probably have been a a hat-trick, but I really don't think you can knock him.

He keeps banging them in and always proves a handful.

Simms too needs some credit for coming on and making a nuisance of himself.

Good to see Simms is getting some credit too, came on and made a real nuisance of himself, and meant the defence had more than just Haji to focus on. Really helped open them up.

Lots of positives from that second half.

Everyone average at best in the first half but really good in the second.

It was worth trying Wright through the middle, particularly with Palmer's good form, but it's clear that whoever plays that central role has little impact and Wright is way better off the left.

Torp was excellent yet again, looks a real player.

Yeah. JDS was caught out a few times, but I certainly wouldn't say he had a bad game. Palmer was quieter than usual, but could have easily scored (deflection over the bar) and
Lati was fine.

It was always going to be difficult against a strong, aerial side.

Would have felt more comfortable with Thomas and Kitching in there, but we got the win and definitely deserved it in the end. Millwall barely laid a glove on us in that second half

He got to rest players ahead of what is a harder game on paper Vs Plymouth.

Robins got the win today whilst doing that.

He is our 12th man.
What you on about rest players, who for ? and for Christ sake don’t say Sakamoto he was buzzing about all match, Robins will pick the team he thinks will beat Plymouth.

Godden, Bidwell, and Kitching rested, Thomas and Simms with 30 mins and Eccles, Palmer with less than an hour… all available for the next match. Gives us a chance to rotate and rest other legs over this next two games.

Either going to be 2-1 squeaky win, or a 5+ goal wind up. Take the attacking initiative early with any chances see what gets through


Edit: sorry, for no reason whatsoever my mind was on the Maidstone draw. Suppose my comments can still stand vs. Millwall instead

Reliable sources indicate if we score 2 goals, prevent them from scoring.... we have a chance to win


Well well well then

My only worry with Saka is teams seem to be targeting and kicking the shit out of him. Happened again today.

He’s a fighter and durable but it all adds up.

Are you happy now?
You'd think I would learn. But up to the point of writing that post, he had got it wrong. Should have been 2 or 3 down inside the first 20 minutes and the first half was very dubious.

Move Wright out to the left and a lot changes
