    Congratulations on that game <ok>

    How have you got on in the other 25? Haven't looked at the table for a while but you must be above us if you beat us?

    And this tells you all you need to know about Pearson and the direction we're going.

    I've told you before, but you seem to have forgotten so I'll just remind you...

    Sven spent lots of money, threw it about left right and centre, we know that. Didn't work out (that tactic never does), he ultimately lost his job, and now Pearson has come in. He is doing the best he can to shift the high earners, and is replacing them with younger, hungrier players on less wages.

    I do love your concern for the future of our club, but we'll be okay thanks, no need to worry about us <ok>

    In terms of Wood, how much he is on, no1 really knows. I highly doubt we are paying him £30k, but did Wood come here for the money? Yes he'll be getting a better financial package than at Millwall, no doubt. Did he come here for a better chance of promotion and a shot at the Premiership? Yes, no doubt.

    What on earth have Aston Villa got to do with Ed's post about when Bradford beat Arsenal? I really think you are a few miles behind the thread <ok>

    Unfortunately we are still a massive 4 points behind you - not bad seeing as you've spent £18M more on your squad for that privilege ;)

    So, have we worked out how much Wood's is earning yet?

    You're 4 points behind us!?

    But, you're better than us!?

    This makes no sense whatsoever!

    Indeed it doesn't Jack - but who said we are better than you? Or did you come to that conclusion yourself after our game?

    But 4 points is the current difference between where you are, outside of the playoffs, and where we are, in the playoffs <doh>

    You did, ed said we are better than you, your response was referencing the game where you beat us, which in my opinion was you inferring you were better than us...

    Again Jack, who said we are better than you?
    We did comfortably beat you - that's not the same as saying we are better <doh>

    It was claimed we are better than you.

    In direct response, you quoted our recent game where you beat us.

    This would imply that you disagree with the statement that we are better than you, would it not?

    Yes you're doing well for a club of your size. About as well as can be expected to be fair. And that's why Chris Wood sees us as a step up - we have really potential for promotion, I don't think you do, and neither does he obviously.

    You can put it down to money, we will say it's because of ambition, but we could argue about this until we're blue in the face since both of these good things are inextricably linked. All players want Premiership football, to make a name for themselves and to get the big bucks. No offense, but that ain't ever gonna happen at Millwall. The football ladder is a food chain - you're below us, we're below Villa, Tottenham, Everton etc. Such is football, we all know this and that's what makes it so special when we do eventually achieve something (our league cup wins, your FA Cup final etc) Those that can't handle this fact become glory supporters. So don't be bitter, it's not the be all and end all. Why not trust in your manager to find you another Wood, if Jacket's as good as you say. Who knows, maybe you can achieve something still this season? Then you'll forget all about Wood and regret your bitterness... <ok>

    Theres play-offs dipshit, do you not know how the league works? Im not saying we necessarily will go up, but the PL was one by one goal. You say just 4 points but if those 4 points mean the outcome is we go up and you dont those "4 points" are very valuable
