    Enjoyed the game today, thought we played well. It's the first game I've been able to get to this season and was happy with what I saw.

    Raggett looked very good as did Manning, two good signings there. Williams had a great game too and never stopped pressing all match. Gutted Smith didn't break the back of the net with the one on one he had but the build up to it was great. We played some decent stuff today and looked far better than the expected "park the bus and hope" tactic that I was worried we'd deploy in the Championship.

    Millwall didn't look great but we dealt with them well when they did threaten, especially number 7 Jed Wallace. He was a livewire and thought he would be the one to punish us when we didn't go 2-0 up.

    Not going to get too excited becase it's early days but I'm happy with what I saw tody and think Warne's "unit" mentality is definitely working

    Great way to bounce back after a couple of defeats. Williams looks comfortable at this level. Perhaps more so than in L1. Always said Ajayi looked better playing at this level than in L1, he's got that costly mistake in him and probably always will but hopefully he can keep a lid on them.
    Looking at the tables, saw Peterborough top of L1 and scoring for fun, but I'd still rather be 15th in the Championship and battling for our lives. That's what we got promoted for and long may it continue.

    This part of a quote from haza, epitomises how I feel. Surely every player from every team wants to play at the highest level they possibly can, and we are no exception. At this level, we will always get the sarcastic cheers from the bigger team away fans when the attendance is announced, but they don't always beat us, even with their extra revenue.
    The squad we have now are absolutely no mugs, in my opinion, and whilst we will always struggle at this level, without serious investment, we will definitely make ourselves hard to beat, so buckle up and expect a lot of too ing and fro ing (sorry if I spelt it wrong)

    Enjoy this ride because we WILL upset some of the more bigger teams, No supporter from LEEDS said we would go down , after they beat us,so that shows the level of performance we need to keep.we may be the worst team, man for man , in this division, but we are more than cable to compete at this level, with this squad, but the players all need to believe it.

    Absolutely. What we are achieving with what we have should be a source of immense pride for the club, the manager, the players and the fans.

    Watched the Newcastle v Chelsea game today where the former were labeled as massive underdogs because their players on average cost 4.5M compared to the latter's 35M. Comparatively we are not in the same solar system let alone on the same planet.

    Chelsea are not helping England manager either ��

    I’d rather watch the Millers even if we do struggle

    I thought it was another tactical masterstroke from PW when he brought Newell late on yesterday. All the opposition Manager,s will know what he can do if left unchecked. Consequently they put three players on him which meant they couldn't get forward and attack us in time added on. Hence we ran the clock down with ease.

    Neil Harris will be upset because Millwall had more possession, more shots on target and more corners.

    Stats can say many things, from yesterday the main thing is ...clean sheet......1-0 win.......3 points thanks...

    Decent side are Millwall and thought we handled them well.
    Missed the last 15mins so was apprehensive when I checked the score at full-time.
    Sean Raggett and Ryan Manning look reasonable signings, still a lot more to come from them and Zak Vyner.

    Onwards and upwards, more of the same battling performance at Wigan away please.

    Well done Millers.
    The worrying thing with your statement is,the three players you mention,are all loanees.
