These binary draws are becoming a bore. Some folk view Duchatelet's refusal to spend big as admirably sensible; I see it as drearily conservative, even mean. It's not an attractive stance. If we don't buy a playmaker and a goalscorer during the winter window and miss the play-offs for want of a win or two, I'll hold the Belgian personally responsible.

How much did Vetokele cost???
RD isnt going to just splash the cash like an Arab sugar daddy. Its just not gonna happen.
I do think we will see a striker come in during the window, but it'll be a sensible amount or a loan. This time last year that was a world away.

M.Roly must have spent 20m+ since taking control in January. To say he's being conservative or mean is plain daft or blinkered.
Another striker is required but don't go breaking the bank and put us in financial bother again if we can't afford to do it.
Not read the rest of the thread properly yet. Player for player we have a better side than them this season in my opinion, and the League table supports that point of view. But once again the players looked to me like they were weighed down by the pressure off their predecessors' piss-poor record in this fixture. We had the odd decent spell, but they could have nicked it just as easily as us. I felt we were set up with the focus on not losing rather than winning. It may be tactically naive, but I am desperate to see a manager let the handbrake off a bit. Go out there, win the 50/50s, make the 40/60's hard work for them, don't give them a second on the ball, get it into their box whenever possible. Surely one win a decade isn't that much to ask.
Posting late but in honestly I thought the draw was a fair result in the end. Seems Millwall are our bogey team that's for sure in 50 odd years of supportiing CAFC I can only recall seeing us beat them twice. That aside Coquelin is real quality and we must try and extend his loan, Solly was back to his 100% best but another anonymous game from Captain Jacko. Overall I thought what quality was on show came from us and how Tucudean missed that chance at the death is anyones guess, he tried to take too many touches in my opinion and gave their defenders time to recover.
Ipswich will be a sterner test and BB needs to find a solution to the problem of Vetokele being isolated if we are to win that one. But overall could have been a lot worse.
So we never beat millwall.but we are always above them in the league that's if they can manage to be in the same division as us.i know it would be nice to beat them now and again but given choice I will always choose finishing above them any day.hopefully they'll get relegated so we don't have to go through the frustration of not beating em. COYR lets push for playoffs.

The last two seasons they have stayed up on the last game of the season, the points they got from us has kept them up. The last time we beat them and done the double over them, they went down.

Every time I think he has taken one too many touches and a defender is about to clip the ball off him he always seems to wriggle through.
He is more of a cut inside and shoot type winger. Nothing wrong with that considering we are only playing one up front anyway.
Has he ever really played their in his career? Would he be strong enough defensively?
A wide player doesn't have to be all about pace and trying to whip in crosses.

Its going to taste so sweet the day we finally beat these mugs.

Red Army - 8
