Match Day Lions vs Wolves (The Kenny Jackett Derby)

[Jockney]

Or the Alex Rae derby.

Or the Mick McCarthy derby.

Just the game we needed to recover from our drubbing at Pride Park yesterday!

I've long written this game off in my mind, but a small part of me still reckons that a boxing day fixture at the Den, with two of our best players desperate to prove a point against their old club, could perhaps yield an unexpected result. I would bite your arm off for a point now, though.

Millwall 1-2 Wolves.

How about the Neil Emblen derby? No?

Anything less than a beating is good here.

Loved Neil Emblem. We have been somewhere between cruise control and not quite clicking of late. I expect a few changes, maybe Bonatini moving to the bench with Jota going central and Costa wide, then potentially Vinagre and N'Diaye rotating in.

The Steve Claridge derby, although half the football league could probably claim that...

I think this will be a game where will become unstuck. A few of our players are starting to look tired (since we have kept largely the same team all season) and it has showed the last couple of games. Maybe Nuno has to change it up, after all we have some very talented players on the bench he will be wanting a start, especially the likes of Costa and N'Diaye. Would rather make a few changes than risk injuries to a few big players.

Ruddy
Bennett - Batth - Boly
Doherty ------------------- Douglas
Neves - N-Diaye
Cav' - Enobakhare - Costa
​

Can't see us making this many changes, but I think we need to freshed it up a little.

Millwall 2-1 Wolves (Saville, Gregory, N'Diaye)

Let 'em all come down TO THE DENNNN

 

[Etienne Vermeer]

For fuck’s sake Archer.

 

[Jockney]

Great game, fair result. Bring on 'Olly'.

 

[markwwfc1992]

Sounded like a fair result, you can't win them all. I think a rotation policy is needed though, some players are absolutely knackered at the minute. Get a couple of players in January to keep it fresh.

 

[big mean bunny]

I'd like us to spent about £77 million in January, just to royally piss everyone off.

Racist chanting from the 'family club of the year'...

Seen some comments on that and how

a) Black people do like Chicken, so it's no different to signing about fish and chips at a white person
b) They were only singing it because he is a 'fat c*nt'

Wasnt there so dont want to offer an opinion, however did he has a heavy xmas, as he was a specimen when I saw him the week before.

Apparently the chants were aimed at Saiss, N'Diaye and Enobakhare. Who are you referring to as the 'fat c***'?

 

[big mean bunny]

N'Diaye.

There was racist chanting at that infamous cup loss away at Luton (Solbakken's last match). Wolves need to sort out own house before going on too much about other clubs.

On the Millwall draw, I'm not surprised. Like Mark did, I would have predicted a loss here. Millwall's a tough side at home. Judging by highlights and commentary elsewhere, we were lucky to get a point. Got a lot of admiration for what has been done at Millwall, and hope they settle their differences with their local council over the ground.
