    Match Thread Millwall

    Millwall are a funny side who seem to do better away and draw a lot at home. They don't concede many and most their games seem tight afairs. This is a team we are capable of beating but I would be happy with a point away from home.

    What do we need to progress?

    We need to keep developing the players we have. Prune a few from the squad. Make a few more astute aquasitions Hamer/Sheaf/Ostigaard quality loan or permanent. Have some luck with injuries - yes luck plays its part.

    Club finances

    Coaches? Mini buses? Hardly a reflection on our complete financial picture and ability to bring players in during January?

    Robings - how long left?

    Tommy Docherty no longer in the running then?

    Robings - how long left?

    "We have a lot of players who have been signed who are fit and nowhere near the level required" Most were signed for League 2 and 1 though. Even those brought in in the summer had to fit within our limited budget.

    Robings - how long left?

    I thought you thought it was 12 months ago?

    Robings - how long left?

    Have you ever thought there might be a reason for that? We basically are playing in the Championship with a League 1 squad.

    Made it easy for Preston tonight, like we always seem to do.

    He hasnt a lot to choose from. In recent games people have been screaming for Giles. Well they have had him tonight and he hasnt offered much. The problem is we have good players on their day. But they lack consistency. Robins has a hard job with the limitations of our squad at this level...

    Quarter of the season gone.

    Not sure what your expectation was? I agree with your basic observations but surely it was always going to be that way. A couple of seasons ago we were in League 2. Stoke were recently in the Prem. We are doing okay on limited resources, it is tough but it was always going to be.

    Go on, both of you tell us better options for the bench with our squad?

    Ratings v Stoke

    You are obviously a glass half full man and would very quickly leave a squad void of confidence without offering any hope or solutions.

    Match Thread Stoke City

    The problem is he is what we have in our squad. We have very little budget compared to other teams at this level. We have to stick with him and try and improve him. We are handicapped because some of our squad are League 1. But that is what two successive promotions bring on a limited budget.

    Match Thread Stoke City

    I actually think Robins was quite cute bringing them both on and Keeping All en and O'Hare on even if getting a bit leggy. It gave them two strikers to think about and something a bit different. I think a like for like for Godden and even Giles for McCallum giving an attacking option - would...

    Match Thread Stoke City

    I would have loved us to nick that. But happy with a point and a clean sheet against a team who dont concede and are difficult to beat. We were a bit rocky at times and put our keeper in a couple of difficult situations first half. We created a few chances and bit of a mixed bag over all...

    Wilson prevents a corner - just in case some missed that contribution. I wouldnt normally mention it but it is for the ones who jump all over him at any opportunity.

    Perhaps so Norwich dont recall McCallum. After January he can play both and mix it up more. Wolves dont need Giles.
