One of the worst games of football I've seen in a long time.

Zero intensity from both sides.

Really poor all round.

We got zero points in them too.

I said it isn't as bad as being made out. Rudoni should have scored and 3 points.

It's embarrassing people still crying because robins has gone and we aren't winning 4-0

Time to get over it, he's gone and we have a new manager.
No, not bothered about Robins, bothered about such a nothing performance in a bread and butter game. We won against these a few months ago.

no, it was awful. Totally unable to create anything, we had that one shot and apart from that nothing. They didn’t even pretend to be interested in winning and we didn’t have anything to break them down.
It'd been "awful" if we'd have lost. It's a second clean sheet in a row, which is something that needed to be addressed.

Most entertaining part of the game is watching the people who are so entrenching in their ‘must defend the Robins sacking at all costs’ stance that they have to pretend that wasn’t complete rubbish
Nah it's more entertaining people who clearly weren't there crying about it being as bad as losing to Derby, sheff weds or Swansea.

Robins not being here anymore has literally broken some posters. A lot of discussions on here have become ridiculous.
From where we were it's been a reasonable start from Lampard imo. Today was difficult, Millwall set up to spoil and was always going to be ugly without Wright and EMC.

A lack of creativity and imagination let us down, I said earlier I'd like us to go 2 up top from the start, and Sakamoto has been poor for a while now, so today would of been ideal imo.

I agree with you , but it was incredibly dull , reminded me of the Wimbledon games of the 90s
Yeh it wasn't a great game.

But we are mid table at the end of the year . I expect more improvement yet and that's before factor in any new signings. Seasons not dead at least.

Marginally better 2nd half, but only because Coventry tried to score, the best chance of the game being your shot off the crossbar which went down but thankfully for us, not over the line.

How we had 9 shots to your 4, and 2 on target against your 1, baffles me. Still, bearing in mind I thought we’d lose today, a point away from home isn’t too bad.

Saw our new manager sitting in the stands next to our chairman. I bet after seeing this, Alex Neil is thinking, “Can I change my mind!” 🤣

See you again next season, and good luck for the rest of it.
It was a mid table boring match

You watching via BBC stats again?

Hope when robins gets a new job you fuck off to their forum.

You bring zero to this one.

They made no real attempt to win the match and still ended up having more shots than us- just awful. If you’re trying to say it’s a good thing that we didn’t lose- wow.

Fatigue could be an issue too over this festive period remember. A draw really isn't the end of the world.
Have we played more games than Millwall? Bear in mind, we are at Prem levels of fitness, supposedly.

"our squad is piss poor with no depth...."

"why can't we create anything against 10 men behind the ball when our two best attacking players this season are missing...."

It was weeks.

They nullified us first half. Second half we picked it up and should have scored.

Sakamoto was far too negative for the first 80 minutes.

Far from an entertaining game but I've seen multiple worse games there this season.

Did you not think?
They had more shots, more on target, more big chances, higher xG. We had one moment from a decent bit of play & individual skill. That's it.

You seem a lot more vocal on match threads since robins was sacked

It has really knackered any rational discussion, makes you wonder what is more important to them. Good reason to take a night off. Another clean sheet shame wasn't more. PUSB
