Thanks for the new thread.

Currently watching the dying seconds of the Boro vs Milwall (fiasco - for Boro) match. Mr Bref is currently crashing round the kitchen in disgust that his team are chucking it all away in the last few matches of the season.

Apparently for the comentators Sheffield Wednesday's new name is "sheffield wednesday already relegated". Never thought i'd be sad to see Barry Bannon on tv

ProudAmberTurtle · 03/04/2026 14:22

Unpopular opinion: I'd love to see Millwall in the PL!

Squeaky bum time for Huddersfield today if we really want a shot at the play offs. If we don't beat Reading then I think it's over.

Good luck!

1-1. Last minute goal from one of our defenders in injury time. Phew!

4 points outside the playoffs so there is still a chance. Just. Need to beat Leyton Orient on Monday but we really struggle away from home.

MrsMitford3 · 03/04/2026 19:11

Thanks again for new thread @DuncinToffee

Much appreciated!

TheSleepingGiant · 03/04/2026 20:03

Thanks for the new thread Smile

After 5 defeats Gillingham came away with a draw and scored 2 goals (which have been hard to come by recently)

TheNewGaard · 03/04/2026 20:06

Signing in, thanks!

Scoobydoobydoo19 · 03/04/2026 22:41

Just saying hello so I follow the thread. 😊
Football is OK today, 3 points is 3 points but it could have been more than one goal.

Folicky · 04/04/2026 00:05

Can I join? I support Liverpool & Sunderland and want to get into championship team but that needs more thought

There are rumours that the club are going to try & get him back at the end of the season according to Joe Crann. I can't wait for this season to end now we are relegated, I just want the sale to go through, the new owners in & to move on.

Folicky · 04/04/2026 08:11

Big match today with Manchester City v Liverpool. I’d love to see Liverpool do well but I fear that’ll not happen

DuncinToffee · 04/04/2026 09:54

Hi @Folicky and good luck for today

that would be amazing.

Off to Gladbach today. In an attempt to make my petrol last longer we're going on the train/bus. Wish me luck.

Signing in, enjoying another football free weekend up here in the NE.

burblish · 04/04/2026 13:36

I suppose on balance it's better to be going in at half-time 2-0 down having clearly been the better team, than because we are being beasted. Scant consolation. Still, we have generally been better in the second half this season, and we were actually decent in the first half. Being a football fan means allowing hope to triumph over experience, right? 😆

I'd choose them over Ipswich after the Nigel Farage stunt.

Also like Middlesbrough and indeed Coventry, even if it was only for one season, Millwall fans would appreciate every minute.

Didn't want to win the poxy FA Cup anyway. Obvs.

Tarkan · 04/04/2026 13:59

I’m staying at home today. Weather wise it actually looks ok right now but I’ve had some bad health related news this week (well yesterday to be more exact) so I’m just taking it easy. The bank account will thank me too as I was at a gig on Thursday night then DH and I had a bit of a blowout last night after I had the call from the doctor so yeah just need a quiet one in today. DH has headed down to cheer them on for me though.

DuncinToffee · 04/04/2026 14:02
