It was and has been poor for many midweek games over the past few seasons. It's hard to knock the players for last nights performance when they walk out and see a sparse crowd in a half empty stadium. It's hardly going to lift there spirits or give them an extra edge. I'm not knocking anyone for not attending, tough financial times, work/travel all to be taken into account but those factors will have a baring on the performance on the pitch.
Not for me and i expect quite a few others. The writing was on the wall after the Stoke result. the Luton result confirmed that in regards to any hope of a play off spot. The players look at the table and see Forest ahead of us with three games in hand, only a loon or an eternal optimist would still believe we had a chance. Last nights performance wasn't one of hope and expectation, it was one of a team that had lost the cutting edge that previously saw us go unbeaten.
We probably have and just when Bradshaw becomes available! Injuries and bad luck have dominated our season to a big extent.
I reckon that’s because so many of our fans have moved out the area.
Yep, it's a long day when you have to travel after a days graft. I did it for three year when i lived down the coast. Gettting home around midnight each time then back up at cunt o'clock and back on the train again is a chore. On top of that i know so many bods with season tickets that have a firestick, feet up and watch the Lions in the comfort of you're own living room on a dank Tuesday night.
We've lost twice in the last ten games, both defeats were against teams below us in the league! Barnsley have lost nine of there last ten away games, they've only won once away all season,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Or Jimmy Abdou!
They've won the same amount of games as us, recently hit a bit of form against teams below them bar us. I'll take that bet all day long if you're serious.
Same old, my Grandad (born early 20th century) always said Millwall get so far and mess it up. Realistically, our recent purple patch has projected us to a position close to the play offs but unless we can really put the “winnable” games away, then we are clutching at straws. That’s not to say the fat lady is singing yet. Every game here in is a cup final, the odds are against us but fuck it. Better than struggling to stay in the league- all day long.
Martin is putting his stamp on them maybe slowly getting there and needing this season to get it to work.if the opposition find it hard to get the ball off you they will find it hard to win. As we found out
Much like Brentford and Leeds when we played them. It works well when they're a goal ahead, not so much when they're a goal down and still passing it out from the back in the second minute of injury time.
