LCFC 1-1 Millwall - Full Time

[Reynaldo]

There is absolutely no way in hell the ground last night was more than half full. So that’s just 16,000 right there. And an educated guess would say it was lower than that. 

[Mike Oxlong]

I also think it’s been a poor standard in the division this year. No team that Ive seen has stood out and even with moderate investment it’s hard to see those promoted and in the play offs being competitive in the PL unless their recruitment is top notch.

Disgraceful that Cooper wasn't sent off btw. Any one of our players sees red immediately for that.

Yeah it was a howler. One thing I noticed about it though, Abdul had just been flattened and I didnt notice one of our players complain to the ref or even go to check on him. Really shows the camaraderie eh.

Was thinking the same. Compare that to the Oxford players when Ramsey was sent off early in the season. Fatawu was lying there on his own for about 2 minutes and none of the rest of our players looked like they gave a shit

Souttar was having a go at Cooper. Genuinely think we'd have been around the play-offs if he was fit all season, he set a standard last night that we've desperately missed.

Football in England is incredible boring, I watch the Brazilian leagues more to be honest I prefer them 

Too many teams/managers trying to emulate Pep ball. It was good years ago when Pep nailed it but now its often slow and boring. Something weve been subjected to for many years as well. Again, it was decent under Maresca but our football since has been dreadful to watch.

Hamza handled the ball, was already on the card; got nothing. Souttar could've been sent off for smashing Ivanovic's face. Just saying...

Top, you have a problem son. The attendance at last night's match will probably be the norm next season. You need to sit down with your immediate family ( no outsiders Jon) and bash out either another but better 5 year plan or a massive cost cutting exercise to allow for the selling of the club in the Exchange & Mart.

I can hold my hands up and say I haven't watched an L1 game in many years.

 

Does "Pep ball" exist in this league or is a more raw type of game close to grass roots/non league?

 

Gonna be very interesting to see how we go into this and to see if we change anything with the type of players we sign

I don't think we'll get 28,000 in League One

It was damning wasn't it, zero team spirit and zero leadership shown.

Hamza's yellow card was a joke though, superb challenge.

Cardiff play a variant of ‘Pep ball’ under Brian Barry-Murphy and have the highest possession stats in League One, and they’re going up automatically with the youngest squad in the division. The only team above them is Lincoln, who have the lowest possession stats.

 

Make of that what you will.

Much easier if you boil it first. Apparently.

This just reads as a sour grapes argument to me.

We probably should have beaten all of the top 8 at home this season. Beat two, lost a 3-0 lead, conceded two last minute equalisers, dominated a 0-0 and conceded equalisers having been in control of the other two matches.

I've not either but my step dad is a sth at wigan and he said the standard of football at that level is awful. A few of the teams towards the top like Lincoln, Cardiff, Bolton and a few others have been decent but the rest are pretty poor. Im sure up until last week anyone from 12th down could have still been relegated. That's half the league

I was very impressed with Louis Page, the way he moves with the ball, he looks quality already, just a bit sad he had no chance in the team after Cifuentes sacking, before yesterday.

He was excellent, wasn’t he? A team that includes him, Braybrooke, Evans and Aluko is one I might be able to get behind next season.

I said goodbye to my mates and the people I've sat with as a ST holder.

Disgusted that people were clapping Winks whilst I booed the cvnt.

Left after 30 minutes, had a stroll around the concourse and left.

Walking up towards odean, looked back at the stadium and literally had a tear in my eye not knowing if i will ever return...owners, players and these idiot fans have ruined the club...Positive for you lot though is I'll be less invested in all things lcfc so you'll read less of my bo11ox!!

 

I apologise to those I've offended over the times, there will be many😁

 

Keep the faith 🦊❤👍🏾

Like you have anything else to do of an evening 😉😜😄

I took a lead from the players and couldn't be #rsed to turn up.   Couldn't even be arsed to watch it on sky.  Cancelled my sky service but as I'm a glutton for punishment will probably be at Bromley next season
