Afraid this was no improvement on last week's offering. Outplayed by a physical Millwall side who bullied our lighter players from start to finish.
No one impressed for us. Breaks my heart to see Maloney going backwards and subbed at ht. Millwall keeper had no saves to make in the whole game. We usually do well against the scum at this level but today was back to the more familiar deja vu feeling. Still there's always April for the first win this century v them, but I'm not holding my breath!
More Millwall in the crowd than us but I ran then after the game all the way back to Crayford, so at least that's one result I guess😂12 - Sponsored links:

This curse the Spanners have over us permeates down through the ranks don't it?
We must of done some serious shit to them at some point... OR we are seriously shit?0 -
Dempsey
Doughty
Davidson
All would have played had they not been in the first team so not too disappointed.2 -

Thanks guys for telling the gruesome story.0

Any news anyone on the u23 match today against Swansea?Aneke was due to feature0
-
Wonder if we'll have to wait till Monday for any reports
What with the comms team up in Preston today I'd be surprised if there was anyone there to watch the game
Will probably rely on Swansea's report a bit when we produce ours0 -
The U23s won 4-2. I don't have any information about the lineup/scorers.

Really odd timing to have an U23s fixture at virtually the same time as a first team fixture for both sides, I don't recall the U23s or Reserves ever playing on a match day Saturday beforePaddy Powell said:The U23s won 4-2. I don't have any information about the lineup/scorers.1 -

Reserve games always used to be played on Saturdays when the first team was away. Long time ago though.4 -

That toughened up the kids and taught them mens' football, playing alongside and against wily old pros.
Kept the experienced squad players match fit also.

The pitches were nothing like the billiard table surfaces played on these days in mid winter and them being played on every week didn't help either.Oggy Red said:

"The U23s were undone by conceding 3 cheap goals in 8 minutes to go into half-time 4-1 down. Liam Cullen had earlier claimed a fortunate equaliser when the Charlton keeper dithered over a clearance and kicked the ball straight at him. Poor defending had seen Swansea let experienced big striker Aneke score after just 2 minutes. He clinched a hat-trick before the first half was up.
The defence tightened up after the interval with Cam Evans joining Brandon Cooper in the middle. Cooper stood up well to Aneke’s 2nd half replacement, another physically imposing forward.
Cullen got a well taken 2nd after 72 minutes, at which point I left to see the Wigan game.
Jacob Jones, Cooper & the Evans brothers shone for the Swans. Keiran Evans went off injured at half-time with Walsh replacing him. Jake Thomas was subbed by Cam Evans. Young academy full back Ben Erickson also came onto pitch in the 2nd half - possibly his U23 debut.
I didn’t recognise our keeper, Sam French. Possibly a triallist from Derby? Strangely, he didn’t have a great deal to do, but 4 soft goals conceded.Ex-Wimbledon striker Jason Euell coached Charlton."1 -
Taylor Maloney not even making the starting 11 shows how much he's struggling at the moment...
Their 11 Jones-Thomas must have the most Welsh double barrelled name ever!1 -
