Wot no Millwall relegation thread?

Much will now depend on how the players react to that defeat. Obviously it can go two ways. They played pretty well so that could galvanise their belief into a few good results or hopefully it will crush all the hope and joy out of them and they crash and burn. 

also, would they rather get straight to it this week or will the international break help?

Archer pulled out of the Scotland squad but could be fit for their next league match, how will it effect Martin to be dropped after that match.

(Amos must be glad he joined Millwall)

I can certainly see them beating QPR and at least not losing v WBA. The two Yorkshire away games look tough.

A Millwall fan of my acquitance moans constantly about Referees being biased against them and reels off the usual we are victims crap. 

He used to moan about the 4-4 draw and the two penalties we got for years. Surprisingly he was silent about Archer dropping the ball to Bauer in our last meeting.

Yesterday he was strangely quiet when three yes three major match changing decisions went in their favour.

Still justice was done in the end. 

I've never known a team get as lucky as them when it comes to referee decisions. Always get the rub of the green, against us with Solly's red card and Bauer's disallowed goal and whenever I watch them on TV. Was invited to QPR v Millwall earlier this season and the ref was relatively fair, gave a couple of soft decisions to QPR, but made no match changing decisions. QPR won and saw a lot of comments from Millwall fans saying how it was one of the worst sets of officials they've ever had. Just showed to me how they've been absolutely spoilt by refs for a long time.

Birmingham set for a 9 point deduction for profitability breaches. This would leave them 4 points ahead of Millwall, having played a game more

It was West Ham!!

Sorry it's a natural tick, when the M word is mentioned...

Any ache in the gonad area for them is most welcome.

At this point of the season a win is massive. If they lose or draw the game in hand they have they are really in it! Mind you, they are not in a comfortable position now!

Still a very good chance we’ll have a SE London Derby next season. The only genuine SE London Derby. 

Still a very good chance we will wave to you as we pass you 

2 goals against Brighton. Same against Leeds. Think they’l Be fine

I doubt Rotherham's confidence will have had much good done to it after that 6-1 trousering they just copped from Derby.

Millwall will be safe this season but you can see their time at that level is going to be limited unless they put some serious investment into the squad and that looks unlikely.

The old warhorse Morison has been great for them but is nearly 36 and needs replacing - how many Championship sides have a bloke that age playing every week?

They are pretty lucky to have basket-cases like Ipswich and Bolton under them.

It is true that it is hard to make a case for Rotherham given that run in. Sometimes a desperate team pulls off a few shocks though. let's hope so.

Stoke only ever draw 0-0. QPR - who knows now they've sacked McLaren. Bear in mind the Spanners do better against better sides and struggle against poor ones. I could see them getting something from WBA and Villa and maybe Sheff United as well if they continue to lose winnable games. Could be interesting if ti comes down to the last game as Wigan are in there as well.

It's almost been forgotten how bad Ipswich have been. 3 wins and 21 defeats this season are shocking numbers for what most people would consider an established Championship with aspirations of promotion

A basket case Ipswich, and a Bolton fighting for financial survival and with the players on strike are making it very easy for like of Millwall, Reading and QPR to stay up

think they did not appreciate what a good job mm was doing for them. still made me chuckle last season when he told a report my initials are mm which stand for mick mcarthy not merlin the magician.
