Philogene at Millwall

Re: Philogene at Millwall

I believe you were there too. Romeo gave a bit back especially second half and fair play to him. Including calling them a bunch of bankers at one stage.

I wanted him taken off though. Think the challenge that got him booked showed he had seen the red mist a bit and was a red card waiting to happen.

Agree with the lad above too when he says Philogene, Sawyers and Ojo in the same team is too many. At the minute too they are a luxury player who aren't really producing anything.

Yep - Romeo made two bad tackles (one in either half) which both looked borne out of the abuse that he was getting, and was lucky to only get booked, I thought. Like you, I was waiting for him to be taken off rather than sent off.

(the Millwall halfwits on Twitter are now suggesting that he 'got what he deserved' due to him objecting to the Millwall fans not supporting the taking of the knee whilst he was there......:shrug: Which almost makes it worse!)

Yeah, I knew a bit of the history behind it.

Typical Millwall though. They seem to take the view that will cause most shock or make them look like ****s more often than not.

Just appalling and clearly made our own fans get behind Romeo even more (not that it necessarily helped)

Re: Philogene at Millwall

I know a lot of Championship teams are not taking the knee as its lost its affect.

It would be a statement if everyone did it v Millwall.

I had hoped that our lot would have rallied, at least second half, as nothing would have put those fans in their place than us getting the win there. Sadly, the performance was a mile away from where it should have been though.

Re: Philogene at Millwall

Similar here. Mine's pink too with a splash of apricot.

So proud am I of my limp wrist I'm debating whether to clamber up on the roof to display an LGBQT flag from the chimney.

I like to wear a light pink City top over the darker pink tights , there is no shame in expressing oneself , no matter how many hooligans are around you can still knock them down even dressed in pink .

PS limpwrist are a great band

Agreed.

(one of my sons pointed out on Saturday, and I didn't think anything of it at the time, but Millwall had no black players in their team. l wonder if the attitude of large parts of the crowd there deters some players from playing for them, as that is pretty unusual?)

I noticed Preston had a similar team makeup. I noticed something similar with them a couple of seasons ago too. I'm sure it's just one of those things.

Um....Afobe...no 7. Scored their second and promptly ran over to the Dockers with his fingers in his ears. A clear message to the boo boys n girls.

Ok, APART from Afobe…… ;-)

Re: Philogene at Millwall

I've just watched the highlights of yesterday's game. Shambolic defending for both goals, and particularly the second. Niels Nkounkou looks decent going forward, but his defensive work is already a significant concern.

However, the most extraordinary sight during the highlights show was Jaden Philogene prancing around the Den in a pair of pink tights. I mean, seriously? What made him think it was a good idea to line up against anyone in pink tights, let alone Millwall?

I am not totally convinced by our general defending but Saturday (same as against Luton) we concede headers in our 6 yard box. Why isn’t Alsop commanding that space and at least punching crosses away.
Also was Colwill injured on Saturday - not even on the bench ?

Re: Philogene at Millwall

Winger, winger you say, he couldn’t beat a f***ing egg

He was excellent against Birmingham. Really really good, but in the last 2-3 games he’s been increasingly poor

Yeah weird. Not even a mention of him :-/

Maybe it was because Birmingham were shite
