So Woy has gone with what remains of his dignity. Kenny has been put in charge and you hope that he tells the players that they need to take a long hard look at themselves and start to play as if they actually care. Victory against the Mancs would be the perfect start.

It wasn't meant to be sarcasm. I hope this works out, but I think it could be a total disaster, with Kenny damaging his great Liverpool record (of 30 years ago). I also think it's sad that the fans are now going to be 100% behind the team. Shouldn't they have been doing that anyway? Anyway, the fans have got what they want, so here's hoping it all works out, but I think Emerson is spot on about the players. For me, the whole thing has left rather a sour taste to be honest.

What is Kenny going to mean to most of the players? Nothing I'd say. What he did as a player/manager was long before their time. His reputation is with the fans. I imagine most of the players will hardly be able to understand him.....at least not before they are dropped.

Leave the mind games to Ferguson, he's better at them yhan you. Or are you putting up a smoke screen just in case you get turned over?

I was at that game Brum.....Birmingham will need to up their game if they want to progress much further. Millwall lost the game because the centre back was awol.....Shittu certainly was...well you know and what was the manager thinking in playing him after he's been out for six games!!!!


Your number 18 was excellent, snuffed out everything Millwall had in front of goal.......and Millwall were in front of goal far more than the brummies.....but just couldn't get it in the back of the net.....even when given a penalty (which reminds me.....the ref was Shittu)...

Think you mean Scott Dann (15) who was the only regular member of our defence playing today. Though Keith Fahey (18) appeared to have a good game when he came on for Hleb, according to the commentary. The 5Live Xtra commentary was also Shittu, but it seems that if Millwall had taken their chances it could have been very different.


Given the League Cup semi on Tuesday and a relegation six-pointer at home to Villa next Sunday, this was the least important fixture of the week and to come through with relative ease and unscathed is excellent. Also, good for Derbyshire's confidence to get a couple of good goals.


Expect 6/7 changes for the West Ham game.

      But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?

      ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
