    Brilliant way to start the season. Forget about us for a second (because we are fecked) and enjoy a bloody good game of football.

    Watching the pace and transition of this game only makes me fear for us even more 
    You're not the only one mate. I;m not watching this game, but the biggest difference between League 1 and the Championship is the pace, and currently we have virtually no genuine pace in our team.

    10 minutes later saying what a save by their £1.34m keeper. 
    Top work sky.
  • This is a right old ding dong do.
  • Always love to see Randolph making a top save!!

    Might think differently when he faces us though

    Apart from Page Djiksteel Gallagher Phillips Boone Taylor and perhaps Harriott. Only Pearce of our CB options can be considered slow.

    Those players might look like they have pace in League One, but the sort of pace in the Championship is another level altogether.

    great game that sets a high standard .. I think it gives us encouragement .. keep at it, work hard, play to our strengths and we should/will surprise a few .. repeat, great start to the season

    We had the goalkeeper at the other end but let him go for nothing even though he was excellent for us. He left because he wanted first team football and has since made over 350 first team appearances. We kept Elliott but sold him a year later to Newcastle where he has barely started 60 games in 8 years.

    The only pace can be associated with Page at the moment is pacemaker given his fitness record.

    But no less pacy than those on show tonight. Best of whom was probably Assombalonga. Top 10 Addicks for pace?

    1 Haynes
    2 Dennis
    3 Pringle
    4 Williams (P)
    5 Grant K
    6 JJ
    7 KAG
    8  Bennett
    9  Gomez
    10 Bent D

    Very enjoyable game. Luton will be good at home again i reckon, think it is about 18 months since they last lost at home.
    Boro will be sniffing about the play offs but i dont think near top 2.
     Got me excited for tomorrow

    Bob Peters Westerlo have been banging goals in. Can't find details of scorers. Remind me, who is their new striker?

    Kenilworth Road will be a shock for many of the bigger sides, as it's a complete dump and really stands out in the division!

    It is. However atmoshphere is pretty good and could play a factor. Reminds me of the old Den.

    Oh come on, do me a favour ! A pretty good atmosphère = old Den. Thé Old Den was just indescribable. Hostile, creepy, scary, scummy, smelly, dangerous, exciting - maybe -  butnot 'pretty good'

    Just saying they are hard to beat at home. As results show.
    The old Den did have a pretty good atmosphere for their team. Agree it was hostile for us.

    We'd lose against Millwall if they played their home games at a 3/4 empty Stadium MK!

    the Stevenage shirts don't look quite so bad 'in action' .. not one for vegans though

    Salford off to a good start here .. play good football as you'd expect under Graham Alexander .. look to be justifying their status as a favourite for immediate promotion

    Being funded by a billionaire would help. 

    Salford are a plastic club with plastic fans. Wish they go bust when the owners get bored of them.

    Must be nice in a way for their original fans seeing them climbing the Leagues

    But I remember reading somewhere that even they werent happy with the direction the club were going as wasnt who they were
