Millwall build-up


RonManager

Recommended Posts

Good to see Millwall stretched to ET tonight, that extra 30 mins plus penalty defeat might make a big difference on fitness and morale come saturday.

 

I for one have a really good feeling about this game, much more so than the first game of the season against them. We have a much improved side, on a fairly good run. As long as we keep Morison in check we should be fine.

 

Have been to the new den 5-6 times and only had trouble once (the one time we wore colours) so i wouldnt let Millwalls reputation put anyone off going to this game...we need as many behind us as possible.

 

Personally...i cant wait! COYR

I seem to remember when we played them in the CCC back in 2005, the "yoof" thought it was a good idea to try and start a chant of "will we see you lot outside?", if they could refrain from that this time and not make us look like a bunch of lairy idiots, that'd be greatly appreciated.

 

Let's hope the majority of our support are going for the beer and 3 points, sadly there'll be some knobs.

Ha Ha - if the yoof did see Millwall outside they would "never make the station".

 

 

I remember as an 11 year old watching Saints v Millwall at the Dell in 78 - the away fans in part of the Milton, next to the Milton Road quoir separated by only a single, thin line of policemen. Unbelievable these days. We were in the Archers. Inevitable fighting in Milton end all match, far better entertainment that what passed as football on the pitch....

Was this the match where the yoof were also chanting "Will you run away again?"...as it's London, will there be those very witty BNP chants again?

Personally, I'm going for the beers and 3 points! Looking forward to this game, very pleased that they have had to go to extra time and our boys have had a bit of a rest with Huddersfield called off. Be good to see Fonte make his debut as well. COYR!

Just bought my tickets for this. Psyched. Hoping for a good showing from a rested and revitalised Saints.

 

There's been a fair bit of snow overnight and this morning in London. Hoping this won't affect the game on Saturday. Think its meant to warm up a bit on Friday.

 

Will be having a few bevs London bridge way beforehand.

Not sure, but it seems to happen more often than not now.

 

Can we have the away tickets seperated into 2 types? One allocation for football fans and another for football factory fans?

3-1 Saints.

 

I shall take it on foot as per usual from Paddington and visit the Tate for the Turner exhibition in the morning.

Great exhibition, but get in early. You can then get the Tate Boat to Tate Modern and leg it through Clink Street (lol) and the Borough Market pubs to London Bridge for South Bermondsey and the police escort to and from the ground.

 

The perfect day!

I'll bear that in mind. Cheers.

Agreed except for

Waigo on right....

Antonio (good impact player as sub)....and always before Holmes (who has not played for a long time and not good enough)

I allways drink in a pub near Surrey Quays the loacals bought me a pint last visit

 

Which boozers that mate? My girlfriend lives round those ends & I'll be starting my day from there so if there's a friendly pub in-between then I'm all ears.

Could be the aptly named Surrey Docks I guess.There is also the Moby ****,

not a very salubrious place in my student days but probably more up market now.

 

Reminds me of a very infantile game we used to have when I was at Imperial, took it in turns to find the most dingy downtrodden pub that we could and take everyone there of a friday night for some slumming.Most of them were more friendly than yer upper class watering holes.

agree except Lallana on left and Waigo on the other side, oh and Holmes can do one. Antonio from the bench has been terrific, especially away from home. Add to this Millwall scouts will have seen him struggle in recent weeks and not even mentioned him in their reports so he can be our surprise.

 

Having said that Perry will start.

I will be amazed if he starts seabourne and fonte unless he has no choice....add the new RB...3 new defenders at an away game to a decent team?

 

cant see it

 

If Perry starts at CB against Millwall we will have great difficulty in winning. I do not rate the man, neither does the management apparently otherwise we would not have signed 2 new CBs. Game reading is one thing, physical presence is something else.

the defence has cleary been identified as our Achilles Heel, apparently Pardew was furax after the Colchester game, not surprising ,the goals were really lamentable and could easily have been avoided if our CBs weren't so slow.I've always said we need 2 CBs and a RB before anything else. Looks like he leans towards my point of view as well.

you are right

 

but do you really think two new CBs who would have had a couple of training sessions between then will start together away at a decent team..?

 

then would we also throw in a RB..?

 

not this game I reckon..

fonté though or hopefully so, one of our big problems this last few weeks is that the defence have taken to hoofing it forward. Our midfield where much of our talent lies is totally nullified by that because they have to scrap for second ball rather than having time to create from source. Hoofing just means that you can have the best creative midfielders on this earth and they are totally useless to you.

I'm not travelling if I can't be sure that they're selling them on the door. What is the likelihood?

 

I called up Thursday lunchtime as got a mate in London who might come as well, but doesnt want to decide until the day, the ticket office said there are 500 left and therefore buying them on the door should not be a problem.

That's the team I'd predict except maybe starting with Perry rather than Seaborne rather than 75% (but who knows?!) of the back 4 being debuts that have never played together. I'd imagine Lallana will be on the left with Waigo right though.
