v Millwall (a) - 21/12/2024

[Wing Wizard Windy Miller]

Both our fullbacks are far too slow.  Jeez.

[doctorryan]

Both these kits are garbage.

We seem to be willing to deal with their BS so far, which seems to be their entire plan for the day.

The beginning of an 8 hour triple header.......Rovers, Nittany Lions, Steelers.

All big or must wins.

[doctorryan]

Nice try from the "Little Oh".

[Exiled_Rover]

This is a really ugly watch - Millwall are scrapping for their lives.

That should be a yellow card for their #22.

[Wing Wizard Windy Miller]

Cantwell has been shite so far.

 

[superniko]

6 goals in Rovers last 5 games and 7 in Millwalls last 5. Always going to be a scrappy one. 
I’d be surprised if this isn’t 0-0 or 1-0 either way. 1st goal is massive (as always)

In Millwalls last 13 games, no team has scored more than 2 in a game (either Millwall or their opponent). Under 2.5 goal backers rejoice

I think he's a little neutered out wide.  I'd switch Ohashi out there.

Anyone else watching the efl feed with the southerners arguing lol

Very panicky game this don't think either side wanting to slip up.

Cantwells deliveries a bit off today

Coz Dubz looking confident to run at them

He’s a bit hit and miss performance-wise, but he’s a match-winner capable of producing a bit of magic. 

[Wing Wizard Windy Miller]

Big let off there. 

[yankfan]

Nervy at the back. Luck to be 0-0

[BigBar]

Britain and Beck at half time please. Getting fleeced on the wings.

[Tom]

Sounds like Pears made a couple of saves but both ended up with a follow up strike, his shot stopping seems improved but parrying needs work 

[booth]

We're missing Beck at the back.

[Wing Wizard Windy Miller]

Their left winger seems everything we need.

[RevidgeBlue]

Terrible defending from Hyam and Pickering after Pears made a decent save.

[superniko]

Sunderland, Boro and Watford all losing (yes we are on playoff watch already)

[Forever Blue]

It was a risk that line up if Milwall have good wingers. Cantwell and Dubz don’t offer much in the way of protection for the full backs. 

[booth]

This refs a bit dodgy, that was a definite yellow.

[Exiled_Rover]

Another cynical foul by them not punished with a yellow.

I'd bring Cantwell in at #10 because we haven't been able to get our foot on the ball there. Ohashi works hard, but his first instinct is to run beyond the defence.

[Forever Blue]

How’s Gueye doing?

[OsloRover]

Yes Dolan might be a better fit for this game actually. Millwall impressive in their sheer physical intensity but rovers standing firm so far

I knew that, so I've no idea why I didn't think to bet on under 2.5 goals and also on Travis being booked, which was an inevitability in this game!

[Exiled_Rover]

Their defender got a freekick after foolishly losing the ball to ACD because he screamed loudly.

Ridiculous.
