    Thought Che Adams was back then with that header on the goal line

    Smallbone to Adarma, sounds familiar.

    Gonna see a lot of double yellows this season, judging by the way we keep dragging players back

    Sam Amo just looks so much more forward thinking that anyone else in the team.

    We have played so dirty in this game.

    Could have been a straight red for Joe. VAR possibly would have seen that differently to the ref.

    Some incredible touches from Dibling. If you are good enough you are old enough...

    Our lack of pace will destroy us against top strikers

    Pre-season has surely shown that SAA and TD are worth hanging on to and should be making regular subs appearances this season.

    I think both are better than Edozie.

    Hope Dibling and Amo are involved in the Prem. Manning no thanks. Wood I'm not sure about, prefer Edwards from what I've seen. Woods seems a bit of a clogger! Hope we keep Charlie but we are clearly crying out for some creativity.

    Personally, I think Dibling should start at Newcastle.

    I repeat, we cannot let these lads go out on loan. They are more than good enough to be serious options, and if we're serious about this pathway, they have to be given significant senior roles this season.

    1-0 win.
    Time to stop the experiments now and set the team up as we intend starting the season.
    The only time Millwall looked like scoring was from set pieces, which we are still **** at defending.
    Our penchant for dragging players back will see us end up with red cards, especially as the fouls aren’t discreet, they are full on tugs back with both arms.
    We are slooooooooow all over the pitch and we keep getting into situations where we are letting players get goalside, hence all the pulling back fouls.
    Dibling and Sam Amo are our creative players and need to at least be on the bench.
    Joe was lucky not to get a red I think, stamping on the guy’s foot a minute after he thought he should have had a foul - if you want revenge then it has to be more subtle than that.

    I like this team, we have some great characters and footballers. I just hope we can make the right additions. Clarke, O'Riley, keeper and a striker please.

    I've said it too and I'm going to repeat it as well ... ad infinitum, until it happens
