Right, I want to make it clear I am not complaining.  Last night, by and large was good.  The effort was there, the football was good in patches, and the winner was a corker. However, I still think Nicho is too hesitant for that centre half role.  He is not commanding in the air, and easily bullied.  For me, Williams, with his stature and years of experience, should be starting alongside Ifil (who was superb all night).

yes, yes & yes. Nicholas looked shakey all game to me (especially 1st half) Maybe with greter experience there he'll look better, but we dont really have that luxury right now.

Play Williams.

I think he's been giving Williams time to heal properly, no point risking him when Nicholas has been able to "do a job".  Someone has mentioned that Wise picked up on our defence not getting tight enough to the forwards, so maybe Williams will gradually be drafted in anyway.

Nothing against Nicho - always liked how he got forward as a left back. Still reckon that's his better position.

Spot on, he was hesitant last night (again, not complaining overall!) - I'd rather see CCP in there ahead of him, but ideally Williams. Millwall fans thought he was good by Championship standrads last year - really should boss the game down here

i'd rather see williams alongside ifil, but in nicho's defence he's done well at centre-back since that brentford nightmare and it would appear that wise considers him a better centre-back than he is left-back.

Agree with all of that apart, looked a bit dodgy first half. Didn't win any headers either.

Have to agree .. although if you look at the goal it was Jerel who stuffed up ... but Williams is the captain and really Nicho isnt a centre back .. so id like to see Ady come in for the game Saturday .. with Evo in for Pook in midfield ... think id leave Roycie on bench as super sub again .. after all Roberts was our best player on Tues and the Cock worked tirelessly for the team

firstly the goal was not Ifils fault, it was Jack Smith who was fucking about with it in the sideline when he could have booted it out for a throw in or a corner.

Ifil put his boot through it and they got a lucky deflection. It shouldnt have even got that far

In Nichos defensive, he was rather solid at Hartlepool, he was alright last night but after the goal went in clearly looked shakey

nicholas is not a centre bank in my opinion.  Got a sweet left foot on him but lacks concentration.

 The goal was a succession of gaffes firstly by Pook, then by Monkhouse, then Weston, then Ifil.....Jack Smith mat have been involved as well.  Very last season.
