Millwall v Burnley match thread

[PurleyLion]

Highlights available on Sky, I thought their goal was offside but played on by Coops.

Both goals similar ie ricochet in the box falls kindly for the scorer.

Four points in 4 days against the top 2

Now don’t spoil it by not turning up at Stoke

Was that a case of Twine tying himself up in knots?

Well the way the twats were falling over made them look complete strings......

I thought the ref was a bit ropey as well.

Only just reading this, but have to say. I have never understood why during games, people have to put on here stupid comments.

For fu$$s sake, just let the game play...................

What might have been if Bradders had come on earlier

Millwall manager Gary Rowett:

"I didn't rest him [Bradshaw]. Even I'm not stupid enough to rest a player that scored three goals in the previous game,"

"He was injured. His ankle was swollen black and blue. He had a tight hamstring, a tight glute.

"He said he thought he'd be about 80 per cent and at that point I said I'm not going to risk you. It's not worth it.

"I didn't really want to use him. But with the state of the game, we wanted to get something out of it. He took the goal really well. The keeper doesn't even have a chance to move."

Great commitment from Bradshaw there, and great managing from GR in not wanting to originally risk him!

Hope he’s able to play on Saturday, even if it’s only 20 minutes or so!

Is it my imagination, or did the Burnley players seem a tad disappointed as they trudged off the pitch?

Proud to see us going toe to toe with the Prem posers. Even in the 7 minutes added on for their near death Theatrics.
Not pretty to watch, but a dog fight never is.
COYL!
