We just need to start converting more of the chances we're creating. We've had more shots than anyone else in the division so far this season. 59, I believe, in the three games we've played.
Keep the faith
59 shots? Just because you can drink a lot doesn't give you the automatic right to win football matches
Actually went to the game on Tuesday in the Ipswich end. How Millwall came away with nothing was pretty staggering. They're also a very, very physical side - won so many headers vs centre backs and even more when Tom Elliott came on. Had Ipswich under a lot of pressure, clinging on at times.
Bizarre feeling leaving The Den feeling happy, one that I've actually never experienced (excluding a pre-season friendly 10+ years ago)

Ive only seen them on tv v Forest, but they reminded me a bit of Wimbledon 20 years ago with the likes of Fashanu and Vinnie Jones - your comments would sorta reinforce that.
They stay up , Roland has cursed our club and we will be punished with palaces prowess and the marauding millwall lions rampant as we wither away and shrivel up after bolting our load after a 1-0 victory against Bristol fucking rovers

For a change the football is actually much better than last season. Yes it's direct & physical at times but also playing some much quicker stuff on the floor.
Saville & Wallace are looking strong, Meredith looks good at LB too.
Some shocking defending & woeful finishing has cost us dear. Most people are still fairly positive at the moment!
@Sparrows ------ Before a ball was kicked this season I wondered where the goals would come from over the season for you to stay up.
Its hard to call who will go down. Burton have problems already with injuries to a small squad and look like one of the 3. Barnsley have shipped a lot of decent players could be the unexpected side. Think Bolton will scrap for points to keep out of it.
After that who realistically is there do you think to slip instead of Millwall?
This may be the only shining light on our season, I'm afraid to admit it's frankly embarrassing though, I'll pray they go down in silence because we're in no position to laugh.

There's a lot of rubbish in this division. Some quality towards the top, but a lot of crap that could easily slide. We just need to make sure we pick a few wins up by the end of September otherwise I can see the confidence draining and it becoming a hard slog.

Again Harris has come out with something similar to what he said prior to their game against Forest at the start of the season
He said pressure is on big spending Bristol City, like he said pressure was all on Notts Forest to win their opening game at home.
Basically he's gonna spend the season saying that their away games the pressure is all on the home team/big spenders blah blah blah, and their home games he's going to reiterate how hostile the den is and the fans will really get behind the players and it will be very difficult blah blah blah
I hope that smug smirk or whatever problem he has with his mouth and that funny position it takes on his face gets eroded over the coming months

I can't even say it's that hostile. This is a myth. It's often half full and a few 100 flat caps going 'Milllllllll' doesn't make it hostile
I appreciate this game will bring out the football factory in them, but all this 'hostile atmosphere' shit belongs in the previous century
Standing on the pitch in front of the away fans after beating Leicester in the FA Cup last season, that bloke punching that Spurs fan, is this what they mean by hostile?

I agree. Let's all be like the plastic Premisership where everyone is more interested in taking pictures of players, sitting on their hands and making the opposition feel really welcome

I suppose we could have punched a defenceless animal instead, right?

And an admireable mention for the Palarse wonderfully losing out to a last minute choker!
Yep, this is where we will be getting our gloating done this season lads!
Fill yer boots, for now anyway.
palarce lost

Up the ridicule and snobbery as it elevates your downfall
On the train back from London Bridge having completely played the league leaders off the park. Their possession was 90% in their own half.
Neil Harris' rallying calls seems to have worked.
I had Leeds to beat us and you to beat the do as you likeys in my acca, so chuffed with the outcome to be honest.
