Were We Humiliated at Millwall

[Ads]

Millwall are the poorest excuse for a football team with played in uears. Percentage football donkeys to a man. So to be just as bad as them was indeed humiliating.

Bloody Hell! We played a pretty strong team. We didn't create one clear-cut chance (goal came out of nothing from Weimann). Our only tactic was to pass back to Given who in turn hoofed it straight to Shittu. And people don't think that was a humiliation??

I thought Bradford were really shit, to be honest.

Yes, they went through, but we didn't half make it easy for them. First half on Tuesday, they barely got out of their own half, we were so much better, it was almost embarrassing to watch.

Second half, they score, we go to pieces, and put them under absolutely no pressure whatsoever.

Will Millwall be humiliated by Luton?

[hilts_coolerking]

That's why, for me, relegation seem probable: teams just don't have to play that well to beat us.

[PaulWinch again]

It was the manner of our second half performance that's embarrassing more than the result.

More a combination of that & the Bradford mess.

and the previous month.

All set up for Man Pooh or Chelsea, it seems.

The magic of the FA Cup.

[Brend'Watkins]

The result and other recent results are disgraceful not humiliating. Our defending from corners or anything that's chucked into the box is disgraceful and humiliating.

Think we can take a little consolation from some of the other results this weekend.

[Brian Taylor]

It is the bl**dy Cup..Oldham and Leeds? Brentford draw...They all want it. Their moment of glory against overpaid, privileged, primadonnas of the PL!!
Oldham get less as a team than Gerrard does a week.
get on with the ultimate humiliation of relegation. Get Robbie Keane back to pull them together!

[James]

Just be glad that we got Millwall and not Oldham! That Oldham side would have had a hatfull against our lot. They defended with everything they had at the end and kept their nerve through six minutes of stoppage time. Oh for commitment like that in our ranks in the coming weeks! But no, the Millwall result wasn't humiliating, the worst thing about it was that it wasn't a shock at all!

[SoccerHQ]

It was not worse than losing 3-0 to Donny in 2005 as they're having a decent season in the championship and it's a horrible place to go.

But yeah so soon after Bradford which will probably never be beaten as our worst cup result it feels twice as bad.

Still nice of Norwich to lose to a non league team since 1989 so at least we can't attempt to break that record next season.

[Witton Warrior]

Surely this is more a case of "how-are-the-nearly-mighty-fallen"?
The media circle like sharks when they sense blood. They tend to like the other relegation-threatened teams because of their savvy managers/owners who will give a quote unlike our mob who appear silent and sullen.

I'm sorry, going out to a lower league team will always be humiliation in my book.

Although I see what you're saying, I think what Brian's pointing out is the the way media report it.
How can Millwall - Villa be a humiliation, yet Leeds - Spurs only a shock?
