For the second goal he looked like an outfield player who'd had to go in goal because the real keeper had been sent off. He just flapped at the ball and pretty sure he completely missed it. Should have been a routine tip over the bar.
-
On team selection would add that we played without recognised wingers. Norwich stretched Brizzle with wing play and scored 4 goals. We looked very disjointed. Archer for some reason tucked inside rather than going wide as he did against Blackburn which left Manning to push on and provide the width which, at times, left our left flank exposed. Matsuki struggles out wide and doesn't have the pace. This lack of wingers meant Azaz couldn't play his normal game so he looked poor but he didn't have his normal options. Without Jander in midfield nobody was picking up second balls. Bad day at the office but at least we maintained the unbeaten run and Charles should have scored to extend the winning streak.
-
Agree. He created his own problems because players realised they'd often win free kicks just by throwing themselves to the ground. It was happening constantly.
-
Agree they played well and their shape was far better than ours. We looked disjointed from the start and playing Archer and Matsuki didn't really work plus Downes and Charles don't work well together. Wood looked very clumsy tonight but I guess that's because he's not had many minutes compared with THB and Stephens. Brizzle were neat and tidy and played between the lines. I concede they looked the better footballing side on the night but feel we deserved the draw based on us creating more good chances than them.

Rather play Ipswich at Wembley than Millwall.
-
Disagree as I thought a draw was a fair result especially as Charles really should have won it for us but had a simple chance saved by a relieved goalkeeper.
-
All of this is true if Millwall don't drop any points in their final two games - which they probably won't but football has a habit of throwing up some strange results when least expected.
-
Sounds like Baz was unlucky again. How many black cats has this bloke run over!
-
Leicester will likely try some kids out now. Not expecting them to put up much of a fight against Millwall.
-
Do one.
-
Might have had something to do with the tsunami coming from the sprinklers. Who's bright idea was that? At one point I thought the ref was going to abandon it cos of a waterlogged pitch.
-
We weren't good tonight but even so Charles should have won it for us. Tonda gets little wrong but I think he put out the wrong starting eleven tonight allowing them to boss much of the first half so we didn't make the fast start we needed. 2nd is likely gone now but it's been an amazing run and we are still unbeaten. Brizzle always seem to ruin our fun.
-
We've let Morsey run this game.
-
Very poor defending at the corner. Think we're done now as never been at it tonight. No disgrace after the run we've been on.
-
When are we going to win a second ball?
-
Time to step up Tom.
-
They're getting between the lines, we aren't.
-
Midfield is non existent.
-
Got to change this Tonda. We're not getting near them.
-
Yes, we have hardly pressed them high up at all.
-
Very poor. This line up is not working. We need two proper wingers. Wood has been shaky and our passing has been below standard. Need a big second half or 2nd place is gone. I'd make changes at half time if I was Tonda but I doubt he will. Brizzle look quite dangerous on the break and we've been short of numbers at the back a few times. Need to put much more pressure on them.
-
Larinnnnnn!
-
No proper wingers has fucked us so far.
