Whoever authorised Matt Grimes to boot the ball back to them after kick off needs sacking TONIGHT! Absolute disgrace.

Perhaps its grimes that needs dropping, it went downhill when Allen went off, surely that's enough evidence. | | | |

How couldn't we keep possession for 2 minutes after their first goal |  |

Grimes might have the captains armband but it was clear who the real captain on the pitch was tonight.
I’d imagine Grimes & Martin will exchange pleasantries over a vegan coffee & piece of cake in the morning. |  | | |

Allen was superb and Grimes needs stripping of that armband and handing it to Allen.
Absolute passion and a will tonight from Joey that showed us how much he loves the club..... Superb performance. |  |

Not a chance Joe Allen would be here if he wasn’t from the area, we need to take advantage of having him here this season while he’s still firing on nearly all cyclinders.
Sadly I think the team won’t do their bit in this current setup |  |

I've been a Grimes critic but tonight, I'm not blaming him. Joe and grimesy did well together, it was Joe going off and Fulton replacing him that changed things. I like jay but he's not what we need there. I said it on the match thread, I'd rather play Naughton there if Joe has to go off. | |

Fulton cant play.
His second touch is usually a tackle.
If not, its a header …. 🤷â€â™‚ï¸ |  |

Yep, Martin Out Now.
Long overdue.
Been saying it for yonks now (well, over b'there, the poorer relations at PS, with a Top3 equalling thread ....).
Better late than never here, hey.
Martin Out..........pronto, before the window shuts and Wunter totally hecks it all up more than he has already hecked it all up. (Such the loser axis: Wunter:Martin.)

Fulton is now the escaped goat for Martin's tragic failings.
FWIW- Fults is a players' favourite.
Appreciated by the players yet unappreciated by the uninformed passive supporter.
Fact.
Grow up Kilks, or stick to the non-football malarkey

The problem is when it's Fulton AND Grimes.
Play one or the other. They're both largely similar. They both have limited impact going forward but can sit in front of the back line and ensure that the ball gets recycled to those who can make things happen. When you put them both together then you sacrifice any dynamism or creativity in the centre of the park and invite the opposition to take control of the game.
As soon as he made that change I was sitting there waiting for Millwall to score. If they got one a second was always likely, and so it proved. |  |

Agree with most of that criticism but the second goal has to be down to Fisher (aided by Wood) |  |

Didn't think much on Congrave when he came on either, not saying there's not a player there but with all the hype, he gave the ball away more times than he passed it, poor IMO | | | |

He's very young and some people have got a bit carried away with him, I think. Great that he's getting experience so early, and at 2-0 and coasting it's the right type of game to bring him on, but he's not a Championship footballer yet for sure. | | | |

Got to be the dumbest OP I have ever read on this site.
That's what we do. That's our routine (and the majority of clubs) from a kick off or restart we or they pump the ball diagonally into the opponents far corner. Have people not noticed that before?? If we had played it back and started playing tippy-tappy we would have been asking for trouble, against a team that were in the ascendency willing to throw everything at us and with nothing to lose. | | | |

Doing it at the start of the game is one thing. Doing it at 90+2 is quite another. There were literally 180 seconds left. Keep the ball back to Fisher play through the line take it to the corner. Get a free kick. You know the route surely?
Millwall were desperate. Make them pay. Make them frustrated. This can be easily coached into the team. |  |

Congreve has seen two 2-0 given away on his watch and he was personally responsible for the equaliser at Oxford for not doing his job. (I once worked on a building site where I had a 18 year banksman who very nearly killed people for not doing his job). Age is no excuse.
Good lessons for the lad. He was also part of a highly touted Welsh u18 team that beat Croatia 4-2 with Congreve a star, then a credible even game v England 0-2. They than inexplicably lose 0-6 in the third game to winless Austria . I can only assume p a poor mentality or an hangover of some sort. He is now being talked about by nobodies like me and has some good lessons in his kit bag at 19 years. Lets hope he is a fast learner and future leader. | |

Seriously? Pass the ball back to our goalie and we can then play the game out. The only thing you got right there was that Millwall were desperate - they would have been down our throats en masse. Thinking about it probably the worst possible move to have made; might have given them a chance to notch in a couple. | | | |

180 seconds.
Down our throats en masse. Free kick Swansea. (30 seconds) Down our throat on mass thow in Swansea. (30 seconds) Opps I cannot find anyone to throw to (booking) 30 Seconds. Another throw in tp Pattersom. He walks away with the vball offering it a millwall player 30 t years away (30 seconds). Melee another booking 60 seconds. Argy bargey.
They think it is all over. It is now.
Give the ball to Obafemi sprint then stop . Free kick Swansea. Harry Kane is a master of this. [Post edited 17 Aug 2022 14:15]
