    Has is sunk in?

    Wouldn't fancy being a Millwall fan right now. Imagine this place if we had been 3-1 up and lost, People would be on suicide watch...

    Match Thread ⚽️ Middlesbrough vs Coventry City Match Thread - Monday 8th May

    I'd go for the max defence option - Dabo & Bidwell rather than JWE & BNC plus Jamie Allen running around harrasing them rather than Godden Suspect Robins will not be as pessimistic. Fear the worst

    So what’s permutations please

    the only upside (although I am not sure it is one) is that everybody else knows they need to win, we only need a draw. Thinking particularly of Sunderland and WBA.

    So what’s permutations please

    In our bones don't we know that we will suffer a narrow defeat and Sunderland and Millwall (most likely) will pip us? Late Sunderland winner anyone?

    Match Thread ⚽️ Coventry City vs Birmingham City Match Thread - Saturday 29th Apr

    one of the wing/full backs has to be more defensively minded - so it is either BNC & Bidwell or Dabo & JWE, or else were re leaving it a bit to chance

    Match Thread Sheff United v West Brom

    There are 5 teams in the mix inc ourselves. Given they are the top teams there is a fair chance 2 of the 4 other teams will win both their last two games. That means 2 teams on 71. Bear in mind that Millwall play Blackburn so only one of those can

    Championship 22-23

    Predicting is a mug's game but it is most likely that Cov, Blackburn, Millwall, WBA and Sunderland will all win this weekend - even Blackburn against Luton - leaving a last day shoot out between the 5 for 2 places Millwall & Blackburn play each other and neither has as good a goal difference...

    Same team as Reading. Dabo v BNC is a toss of the coin as they both have obvious failings just different ones. I would stick with Dabo for all his failings. Tight game, as they are improving, will want to be party poopers (see Millwall), and we will be nervous. All this stuff about losing to...

    West brom Vs Sunderland

    At this level anybody can beat anybody. QPR to beat Burnley anyone? You have to assume any of our contenders could get max ;points, therefore eliminating games in hand is important - so well done Sunderland

    West brom Vs Sunderland

    Forecasting based on predicting future results is a mug's game. Millwall 0 Birmingham 1 anybody. Complete collapse of relegated Premioership teams Watford and Norwich. The key driver imho is purely games to be played, because at this level you must expect contenders to win every game even if...

    King must have a permanent boner.

    SISU made it clear over the summer they were looking to get out - the demise of Wasps was the last opportunity. There was no serious acquisition, just Palmer who was a freebie. The requirement to sell Hyam to cover the repair of the pitch and the desire to sell O'Hare were other clues. Then they...

    Liam Kelly -humble pie time

    Very little makes my teeth grind more than fans doing mea culpa and expecting us to applaud their generosity of sprit. Clint Van D in the latest. example of the type. "In the past I have been really critical pf player x, but I have to admit than he was really good today".Grrr. Perhaps it would...

    Gyok or Wilson

    I just love the Ben Wilson story. It is quite life affirming. Although in his late 20's, before coming to us he had only played about 50 first team games . He was always just a loyal bench warmer. The loyal bit is very important. He kept up that role with us by being 2nd fiddle to Marosi...

    Thank you to whoever posted the link to the Blackburn supporters' blog. Never have I seen so many fans unhappy at being in the play offs. Heaven knows how they would handle the trauma of relegation to League 2. Given what they say about their own lack of power in front of goal without Bradley...

    Transfer Rumour Josh Wilson-Esbrand

    What impressed me on Monday was the decision to lay back to Doyle for the cross to equalize. He was half past his man and has the skill to get a cross in but took the better option

    Player ratings

    Decided to do one of these again: Sheaf & JWB the best. Not sure why people say JWB 'grew' in confidence. I thought he had their RB right from the start. He was clearly our best out ball. Godden: I give up. Tripe for large parts of the game, doesn't do the press we require, looked knackered...

    This summer - potential signings

    Don't forget we will have have Callum Salter-Ostigaard, our longstanding left sided central defender and Sam Maatsen-Esbrand at left wing back.
