Millwall v Huddersfield Town match thread

Aaw thanks everybody. He did have a good innings but Alzheilmers is a real shitter. He took me to loads of matches when I was a kid and later in life I took him myself.
Last time he went was a while back, the FA Cup win at home to Birmingham. But even when he was losing it towards the end he was always asking how the Town were doing.

Hope your dad pulls through, ELT. All the best.

Interesting line up today.
Smithies back. Wallace and Bunn start for the injured Smith and Lynch. And there's a couple of new kids on the bench. Joe Wright and Joe Wilkinson, the beardy bloke from 8 out of 10 Cats does Countdown.

Cheers Snoots. Appreciate that geez. My dads dad had Alzheimer's too, horrible disease. Don't feel the same being at the den and giving it to this lot without him, but hopefully it's a good turnout. Bare bones with that bench. Options to come on with radi, Miller and Lolley though. Hopefully we see all three today.

Get in! Sounded like a good game. Sounded like we rode our luck at times as well but who cares?
Now ten points above relegation and more importantly have that five points gap back over the Beesty Boys.

Excellent result.

Wakey, cancel that holiday!

Just seen Nakki's second yellow. Absolutely ridiculous.

Great result with ten men. Thought we might settle for a point after going down to 10 men. The win opens up a chasm between the bottom 3, 10 points on third bottom Millwall. Squad still looking thin.

Sad to hear about the death of Snoots dad and ELT's dads illness. My friends dad passed away yesterday too, another Town fan lost.

Get in there! Deserved every percent of that win. Referee genuinely one of the worst refs I've ever seen. Took up the mantra that every ref has nowadays of booking every single player who commits a foul in order to control the game. Abysmal and he should not be near a football pitch. Rode our luck at times, their no 8 was outstanding, caused us no end of problems. Edgar very solid at right back even out of position. Robinson hugely solid, come on leaps and bounds this season. Vaughan and Bunn I both thought had poor games before their match winning contributions at the end. Bunn with a sublime bit of skill to win the penalty and Vaughany dispatching it. They should have had a man sent off when one of their players kicks butterfield head off, not even a booking. Scandalous. Their goal was extremely fortunate, coady attempting to clear it and it hits their player and goes in. Shape of the team outstanding after the sending off. Still lack of subs from Powell during the game, think Miller should have been on earlier but hey maybe if he had come on Vaughany wouldn't have been there to score the penalty. Fans outstanding, unneccessary trouble in the stands but heard very shady accounts about behaviour from the stewards. Would advise anyone who saw the incident in its entirety to report it to town as the man involved may get banned if the full story isn't told. Also appalling appalling behaviour after the game, keeping town fans in because they don't trust that cretinous lot to not cause trouble. Outrageous from Millwall and they should be ashamed of themselves but absolutely cracking deserved win and puts us back with some breathing space.

The win feels great the performance wasn't but away from home we can skip a few minor details. Noisy alcohol fuelled support, dodgy keeping and thankfully not Smithies today, strong 2nd half defensively and Bunn's run into the box like his early season form. Never a sending off for Wells told him so at Euston on same train with Coady & Gobern. Hudson really showed metal and leadership they threw fuller and Gregory on smithies not overly busy.
Sitting handy in mid table challenge is to try push on anyone can beat anyone in this league. CP looked to have enjoyed his day perhaps read all the moans last week!

**Lord Snooty** · 07-02-2015, 23:31

Wells sent off for nothing. Millwall player denies Bunn clear goal scoring opportunity, not sent off. Huh

Oh my god, Mike Jones was the referee. Premier league referee Mike Jones. What an absolute scandalous statement that is.
