The last 5 minutes defending was horrific.

That referee was a total and utter c@nt.

Whilst that extra time was inexplicable thank f*ck he didn’t give them a penalty.

How on earth we’ve come away with 6 points from those two matches is anyone’s guess.

Can’t beat an undeserved 91st minute winner. 

[Tugay-is-God]

Looked like a pen for them at the end there.

[duckson]

We'd of lost that last season.

[SBlue]

Been shite for 180mins and got 6 points.

The sign of a good team?

Only 3pts off the autos so we can’t be that bad

[Tormund]

4 points off top?

[Hoochie Bloochie Mama]

Playing shit and winning. What is this sorcery from the footballing gods?

How on earth did we win that? 

Totally disjointed, shapeless, 2nd to nearly every ball, weak in defence, poor in attack. 

I'll take it

[Exiled_Rover]

We got away with three handballs in the box tonight.

[bluebruce]

How do you get 4 minutes of injury time from 45 minutes of football, where you actually have a guy down injured for a while who gets walked off, then in the next 4 minutes of football, with no injuries, you build up another 2? FUCK OFF REF!

Delighted to nab it though. And fuck Millwall and their penalty appeal 2 minutes after the game should have been over.

(Even if they probably should have had two penalties earlier in the game)

Great defending by Nyambe on their counter attack 

Bell particularly poor. I’m worried about him if he’s playing against Brentford on Saturday. 

Holtbys worst game for a while, he’s so much better alongside Rothwell. Can’t say he had much help in the middle though, and he’s so important to make us click. 

Not the game to bring on Dolan for me. Few bad decisions made but he’s young and raw and I’d rather see him in open games where we’re dominating. 

No idea what formation / personnel we were playing at the end. Bit of an in-play tombola. 

Referee was shocking, but we say it every week, it’s terrible at this level.

Hope Big Ben isn't out for too long.

Absolute smash and grab at the end, the kind of game we wouldn’t win or see out in the past (looked shakey from 90 on to be fair). Eases some pressure going into Brentford, that’ll be open, I want us back with Holtby and Rothwell central for that.

How many times did Ayala try to handball it in that match!! Unbelievable how he got away with it. 

[USABlue]

Fortunate win, wjo handled at the end.  Felt Ayala was a liability tonight.  Thiught for sure the ref was going tongive the handball as much time as he added I thought he was trying to let millwall get back in.

[Aqualung]

You lot worry to much. When Ivan Toney scores so does Arma. 

Winning ugly tonight but I'm not complaining. Millwall aren't a bad team as are most in this league. I just wish some bms would cotton on to that fact.

With a superior goal difference to every other team 

[Stuart]

That was tough to watch but a gratifying three points.

We cannot sell Armstrong in January.

[Doaksie]

The kind of result that makes the world of difference come May. Winning ugly. Giving ourselves a chance. 

Despite another substandard performance, can we keep Arma in January??

Think he missed two handballs from our players in the box though so good on him

[Tugay-is-God]

The draw merchants don't get a draw this time!

[G Somerset Rover]

Played shockingly for two matches on the trot. Cue Mercer for the Bees preview: ‘they won’t get near us. Easy win - like printing money’.

[Darwen Rover 007]

Amazing result.

Significant change for this team, we have never played badly and won games.

Well done all!

Even better if its the sign of a lucky one!

[Tom]

Unbelievable, Millwall had more decent looking penalty shouts than we had shots, tactics looked iffy and the performance was poor yet 3 points it is - again!

Magic

I dunno. he could have given them a penalty on the totting up principle.  certainly looked a handball. mind you who cares?
