Won't lie, I started to dream as Bradshaw's disallowed one went in and again when Burke scored.
Half time came and I had the usual "we're gonna f**k this up" moment as I know we always come out slow in the 2nd half if we're in front. Blackburn then pretty much played us off the park and it could have easily been more.
We looked nervous, disjointed and a bit spent/clueless. As @MillwallFan says, we were so lucky to still be there for the last game so no grumbles from me. We go again.
You can all take your mind games and stick them where the sun doesn't shine. I know your game.
Just as the 'Wot no Millwall relegation thread?" thread served to scupper your want for us to be relegated, this one is maliciously designed to do the same for any chance of making the play-offs.
It's not funny.
Called it. F*ck you all*
*Not really...well, a bit Oh and thanks for the 402 unread messages not being half as bad as I thought they'd be. Some genuinely unexpected kind words in there, so thank you
If it helps, you're back on my Xmas card list, BBW

Using your logic I did all I could to help by calling your collapse sone months ago - sorry it didn’t work out - if it helps, I hope you get relegated next year - I can do no more to help !!! 😂😂😂 thanks for yesterday - great end to a shit season 👍

Sorry to be that pedantic type of person... but it was two goals you needed mate, not one

careful, letting a 2 goal lead slip yesterday and today your mask's slipping
Well, judging by the Spanner’s performance first half (a very good goal aside) there ain’t no way they are winning the play offs - very average, vs a team that loses tonight and have the R next to their name
I see nothing that worries me
Am awaiting the Upbeats bet from @MillwallFan - BUT I think I had a bet with him months ago - I pay my way - @MillwallFan remind me (obvs, don’t take the piss, because I will interrogate my CL history !!!)
Yeah think we had who will finish higher in their respective leagues. Can’t remember what we had though. I’ll have a look
£50 - Millwall don’t go up, you donate to Upbeats - you go up, I donate to Jimmy Mizen Foundation ?
Not sure those odds favour me much. Millwall are 7 and a half to one to go up. And I think that’s being generous lol
Booooo
Where is the Millwall ‘fighting spirit’ in you ???
Shall I lend you my train spotting notebook ?
😉
Lol well I don’t mind having a bet against the odds , it is for charity after all. But that is just a bit one sided!
I’ll tell you what, I’ll have the bet, but we’ve just got to get to the final. Odds still favour you but not quite as much. Fair?
Might have to make it £25 though as I’ve got a similar bet with Oohaah and I could be having an expensive day at Wembley in the pipeline 😁
Ok £25 if you get to final
Paid mate. I done it via Bev Woods link on the CACT site as that’s the only link I could find. She done the walk.
Right gentleman, have a great summer. Hope you get yourselves sorted during pre season, because if you don’t, and you carry on where you left off, getting turned over by footballing giants such as Morecombe and Accrington, I’ll be back on here giving you both barrels. 😉

C*** 😉 Our shitness is something to behold. See you in two seasons time. In league 1.

Good man - thank you
We will have a bet for next season, however I will wait and see what happens with Charlton over the summer first…….
I would’ve loved to have been there when the equaliser and 4th Blackburn goal went in. The video that kid took was fantastic. I counted about 4 or 5 flat caps, one guy motioning he was gonna slit the throat of some of the Blackburn fans giving it some. Peak Millwall. All the while they literally just blew it in front of the cauldron that is the Den.
So, so good. For our younger fan base, you’ve had a horrible run of it given we’ve been pissing around at this level of football for too long, and unfortunately, it doesn’t look like changing, anytime soon. But for those of us who have been around a bit longer, as horrible as our record is against them - and it is dire, I don’t pretend it isn’t and I would love a few more wins, we can at least say we’ve had a good run in England’s top division, which is far more than they’ve ever had. In my lifetime (born in 82) they had a couple of seasons in the old first division in the late 80s and have had a few cup runs and some promotions from League One into the Championship, but apart from that, nothing.
That’s objectively looking at it. Would they trade a few of the wins they’ve had against us for a bit more success overall, absolutely. Would I trade some of the success we’ve had and length of time in the Prem for a few more wins against them. Initially you want to say yes because our record is so dire, but ultimately, no.
That being said, they’re in a much better position than we are now
Thing for Millwall now is do they carry on building slowly like they have been but run the risk of stagnating or going backwards or take a gamble on spending a bit more to go for promotion. The latter could cause big problems if it went awry. Which would be terrible.
My honest assessment is that they work very hard and compete for everything and break quickly but the actual lack of ability in the side makes it harder to make forward steps beyond where they are now.
I'm still in full on celebratory mood after witnessing one of the most enjoyable and satisfying 2nd halves I've ever seen.
Pwoppa nawty they are, the way they bricked the Blackburn coaches in true Scum form. They've got to be proud of themselves the way they taught them Norverners a lesson.

In one off cup games where they're underdogs they have nothing to lose and we've seen countless times over the years that they rise to the occasion and it is an intimidating place to go.
But in a game like Monday where they're the favourites and the fans expect a result, i think that can sometimes go against them. Players become fearful of making a mistake and the fans getting on their back.

Yet they still got within a whisker of making the playoffs in a very competitive division. They’ve been slowly building and improving season on season. If they add a couple of decent signings like the Dutch bloke last summer, which is the logical thing to do then they can perhaps at least reproduce this season or better. For clubs without pots of cash, it’s the way to do it. A slow build. It’s what Charlton did under Curbs. It won’t be easy. it never is, but they are in with a shout. They’re doing exactly what we should have been doing albeit in a division lower. Instead we’re rudderless and doing the same inadequate building every season.
What personal justification is there for those Millwall fans to attack the coach, yet still tell themselves their behaviour isn’t scummy? ’They were looking at us through the coach windows, northern c**ts, so they deserve everything they get’. Is it all born of the kind of culture exampled in that famous video where the child dressed in the police uniform is encouraged to say ‘Millwall, f**k ‘em all’?
Seeing that photo of the coach reminds me of the time I had to travel back from Bournemouth minus a window on a cold November day. Can't remember what the score was or what we did to upset them but it must have been pretty bad to set off Bournemouth fans!!

From a betting perspective Millwall are a very interesting team to keep an eye out for. From a pure data point of view Millwall are terrible; lack of goals from open play etc. It doesn’t take a lot for teams like that to quickly drop down the table.
Personally think that was their big shot last season. Leeds, Leicester and Southampton will make division stronger. Plus, Watford, Norwich, WBA & Swansea are always fancied to push on.
Their support must be feeling down but with the budget they had to work with & to finish 45 mins away from a playoff place Once the dust settles they will definitely feel a sense of pride of what they achieved I know I would if that was us

Some "current experience of Blackburn fans".
I think not.

Never has there been a club with so little class.
But in a game like Monday where they're the favourites and the fans expect a result, i think that can sometimes go against them. Players become fearful of making a mistake and the fans getting on their back.
Just received this. Made me chuckle.
