Just got home, still fuming, Jammy cnuts. You won;t see many better goals than their equaliser, but they didnt look like scoring at all. Their equaliser came from about 768 yards, top corner.

For 70 minutes it was the away performance of a proper football team. Solid in midfield and at the back, stifled them everywhere. Tried to hit them on the break and to be honest, didn't have a lot until the goal. Defended superbly.

Greer is fucking immense, he needs to not be out for long.

Brez looked good, smith and vincent both solid. Jerel one or two langers but otherwise excellent.

Midfiel solid but offered chuff all going forward. Amankwaah didn;t do a lot, but we had good shape.

Cox and Paynter was worked ridiculously hard. Cox misses Hartlepool game I think (five bookings).

To conclude: we made Millwall look utter garbage and bar one of the goals of the season, we would have won.

I'll take that,

danny wilson got it tactically spot on. Interesting to see what we do against Scunner. We need to attack, so can;t see amankwaah and kanyuka both playing, too defensively minded.

Hello JPM i reckon.

I agree with the judster

what a load of codshit about the den being intimidating. we silenced them from the start. They had nothing to offer, shit fans.

"Cox misses Hartlepool game I think (five bookings)."

Cox sat out the Bristol Rovers geme in Nov after his 5th booking.  Tonight's appears to be just his second since then, so three more for a 2 game ban

you could be right, I overheard one of the adver lads talking about it, but didn't know myself..

Fuckin andy cryer again

There was nothing in the game.  We battled well, were organised defensively and competed for the second ball. There were few chances for either side.  Last 10 minutes our backs were against the wall silightly and our passing from defense was wayward.  Overall though, we could have won it.  We lost it to a defensive mistake and Brezovan saved a similar shot earlier but couldn't stop this one.  I'm happy with two away points in the last two games against top 6 sides.

just cheked on soccebase. You're right, he's only on one booking now.

I thought The Den was supposed to be intimidating, but The New Den has no reputation of that.

well it wasn't. I was expecting the crowd to be lively and the surrounding areas to be pretty minging, neither was the case. Been a while since I've been to the new den, but I found it alright

Great performance tonight, by christ we look a solid organized team, its like wilson has waved a magic wand on them. I nearly clapped there goal it was that good.

Nah the area is a right crap hole. It wasn't because the old den was 'The Den' with the reputation.

and i hope the cunt who threw himself in fornt of a train at balham has a major fucking headache.

I thought this was a thread about having the chance of using the upcoming article in 4:2:2 on Dave McKay as toilet paper. 

Your midfield looks shit.

Is this a smear campaign?

If you like.

Speaking of toilet paper how did Mcleod do?

What were his parents thinking? They could have called him Bronco or Delsey if it was important.

Part 3

Juddie you were very good on the radio - I only heard snippets on the way too and from spinning mostly you talking about Macnemees boots but I felt like I knew someone famous and it was exciting!

ha ha, thanks, although I thought I was poor, not helped by there not actually being much to talk about other than how well organised we were. It's so much easier when there are loads of goals and chances.

In other news, McNamee looks a tool with those boots on. You only get away with wearing them if you're good enough...

Juddie, do you really think Billy Paynter "polarises opinion"? I assumed everyone thinks he is as ace as i do? Cox would be nowhere near 20 goals without him.

Yeah, but is he your friend on facebook? That would be A.Mazin!

I fell asleep during the second half, nowt to do with listening to you rabbit on though juddie..  :)

 The Blockheads are playing The Wyvern in April...they were very decent unit behind the late Ian Dury, and I think Jankel co wrote most of the classics.

 This is what we find.

OMG yeah!! celeb friends on Facebook all round! wooo

Whenever I read this thread I too think of the blockheads.

Reasons to be cheerful. 1,2,3.

What kind of boots is macca sporting now then? He's been the dissapointment of the season really hasn't he?

I think Paynter's qualoity, but I've read enough comments on here suggesting corr should start over him.

As for Macca's boots, they're the lime green ones Ronaldo's wearing. Ron gets away with it because he's the world's best player. Doesn;t work quite so well for a player who often goes missing and doesn;t help his left-back out by getting caught too far up the pitch. I'd sell him and Sign Kanu if it was me...

Has anyone here bothered to work out how many more points we would have had we not surrendered leads in say the last 10 minutes?

Cue DV....

Last 5 minutes - 39 points - see my post...

Q V D ?

Wasn't my question, but thanks anyway!!

He is dead now...

good.

I just cant make my mind up on Paynter.

Sometimes he is well lazy. Sometimes I think he is excellent.

Do we still have the Billy Paynter Fan Club on here?!?

I want a Billy mask

Dont blame you really you ugly cunt

fuck off tubber

Its chubbs to you pete

Everyone agreed that Wilson's first task was to improve the defending in the side.He's done that and some;no coincidence that Brez is back to very near his best when Smithy,Ifil,Greer and Vincent are so solid in front of him.His tactics for away games against top opposition are spot on,now we have to address the home form.Iagree with Juddie that Amankwah is probably not the man to play at home but I cant agree about the Kanu/McNamee question.I have now seen him at Oldham and last night and frankly I dont think he offers us anything that Mac,on form,cant do better.I know he's not the most popular player on here but I still think he is a must at home-he's quicker,goes by players better and can give quality crosses,things that Kanu hasn't done at all in the 2 games I've seen him.If Kanu is to play on sat I'd like to see him on the right hand side and Macca on the left.
      Back to last nights game,I like the way we have brought more short passing into our game-dont think Jack Smith wasted a ball last night and Timlin,though not great,is the best passer of a ball we have.Best moment when Ifil did a superb Cruyff turn on the edge of our box in a one on one situation,left the forward for dead then sliced the ball into the crowd under no pressure-some things even DW cant change!First class Town support-even the "sit downers" made some noise!

We all knew it was coming! To be fair, the defence looked solid yesterday and did try to pass teh ball out once again. Millwall made it hard for us though

That's it in a nutshell.


Kanu reminds me of Monkhouse. I think he offers a bit more physical presence than MacNamee, a bit more hight (obviously). But in terms of skill/delivery McNamee on form looks the better player.

and that's the problem, mcnamee is one game in four. We can't afford that. Kanu isn't as skillful but does have pace and skill, and away from home he gets stuck in, morw of a team player.

I love watching mcnamee when he's on fire, but it's too little too often.

In saying that, I was mesmerized watching him at half time last night, awesome skill-fest.

Thing is though Juddie even when he's not playing particularly well-he still produces 1 or 2 quality moments which can win a game

this comment will probably not go down to well but i'd get shot of ifil in the summer.if we are to have ambitions of promotion next year then ifil isn't up to it.in his defence i aint seen him play for a while, but i am convinced we will need a better footballing centre half if we are to progress.the same goes for pook,blair,peacock,smith at least

I will say jerel has been quality the last few games tbf

The main reason to be positive is that you can look people in the eye and say they should go down the County Ground again.

Some of the home games this season have been beyond an embaressment. But I just feel we wont go back there now. Wilson is just too good a manager to let things descend into the shitness of 5 months ago.

walsall? for me he makes too many mistakes and is useless with the ball.i like him but dont think he can do any better and take us on.

I do think he gets punished more as he is usually last man . Just seems since walsall he has been told to just defend then clear it. Saying that i know i am biased as he is my best player

wilson went mental at him for the turn on the edge of the area. it was fucking idiotic.

Ifil was excellent on Saturday against Leicester.

I think its vital we get him signed up for next season asap.

We all no how to get the best from the Beast. It's no coincidence that his form has picked up since Greer and Vincent have come in. Getting an experienced talker next to Jerel is like signing 2 new players.

I'd have to agree with that, Jerel just won't cut it should we ever get to CCC level.
