Eccles and Sheaf too slow with the ball. Saka constantly going backwards. Torp anonymous apart from the corner routine.

Can see Millwall nicking a goal from a set piece and us failing to break them down once they park the bus.

He looks scared of their full back. Isn't trying to turn him and get a cross in.

It's back to mve every time

If we aren't going to play certain players lets try ship them out in January. May as well set fire to a lump of cash each week

A terrible half of football, from both sides (though Coventry at least tried to play some football).

Thought everything about that half was tremendously flat, from the atmosphere in the stadium to both sets of players on the pitch.

Have to say, I was amazed at your players seemingly unable to take quick throw ins and free kicks. What was that all about?

Chances wise, felt we had a couple more than you, with the best being the diving header from Tanganga and the shot by Langstaff at the end.

Can’t see your boys coming out 2nd half and not playing better. Seems you’re missing Clark as we’re missing Emakhu.

Here’s to a better 45 coming up.

It's kicking off outside at half time. The barrier between clearly not enough

At risk of coasting into losing this 1-0 they’ve had better chances, only needs one to drop as we don’t look like breaking them based on that half.

Don't worry there's plenty of time.

Dovin has gone 2 and a quarter hours and not conceded a goal! New club record?

Boring as fuck. They’re well drilled for what we are going to do.

Need to change something at half time at get at them before they have the inevitable goalkeeper injury to reorganise.

Millwall have figured out if you nullify the wings we have no teeth to our attack. 2 players constantly on Saka and Rudoni stopping us having any attacking threat..

I dunno felt he's done ok in some games recently. Home ones anyway

Would be interested to see Raphael play today

My friend just got my son of a Raphael turtle present for Christmas today so maybe it's an omen?

Against a team like this we need speed of thought, speed of movement to change the pace and stretch them. We're bereft of both

Everyone slating Millwalls tactics, they've had 7 shots, 2 on target to our 2 shots and 1 on target.

Millwall are well organised and happy to let us have the ball. Not sure why people are moaning, it’s a hard game to play. It’ll probably finish 1-0.

I’d bring on Simms or BTA and shuffle Rudoni back into midfield.

Today's poor performance is not down to Bidwell, its a lack of creativity in midfield.

They've got the 4th best away defence, so we knew what to expect.

Dare I say a very Robins-esque first half

Think they’ve got a bit better under Lampard tbh. We’re just so slow in everything we do.

We can't keep saying every team in the league is poor and we should be winning. It's the championship a league of very fine margins. It was very much a slow and steady first half, some tactical tweaks and hopefully we will be able to carve them open. Missing a proper outlet on the LW no doubt, might be a game for Rapha coming on for tats
