Jerry St Clair I'm looking forward to seeing RFC's fearless tangoes piling into the South Stand within seconds of the start when the Millwall fans refuse to sit down.
I'd be enthused to watch the speed of the Eaststand retreat if the "tangos" weren't there at all.


You might run mate. I don't.

LOL!


Gr8, I might see some tits at the game. Looking forward to it!

5-0 and no reserve keeper. A collection of small change heading into Y26.

Yeah. The East Stand is a cancer on the face of the football violence I love.

Its a tuesday night, they won't bring very many so we should be able to take the south stand.

Football will be a 0-0 but its not about that is it.

Based on the utter dross dished up in the last 3 home games, I expect yet more long ball hoofing, so some violence in the stands might liven it up a bit.

Plymouth_Royal I think we'll get dicked 3 nil with Henry playing a blinder. It's funny because at the start of the season we were raving about Antonio and hrk but slagging off Henry. Yet he's been consistently good for them and shown that quality we lack in the final 3rd.


He needed to play regularly to start being "consistently good" though and he's got that opportunity at Millwall. I always thought Henry was better than HRK and Antonio but the wise fans of RFC said the guy was no good because he didn't beat the full-back all the time.

As it is we have HRK and Antonio as back-up - two players who can (in theory) run past people all day but can't produce an end result after they've done so - as a result we're missing a winger who can put the ball in the box on a consistent basis.

P.S. I think Harte will have an easier time against Henry than he has against most wingers this season.

Consistent crossing will come to them, but I agree it's not there yet, and is something Henry showed whenever he came on the pitch. Antonio looks more dangerous running into the box than he does putting crosses in.

Very interesting predictions from the away fans... particularly this;

'Good bit of news is their keeper aint playing against us, he's one of the best in our league I was going for something else but in this case I'll go Reading 1 Lions 2

Hmm...I hadn't heard Federici was defiently out? :shock:

I have that debate with myself every week, mostly due to my utter bone-idleness though

The Harte - Henry match up could be very entertaining. It will show that either Henry is one that got away or that Harte is actually a good left back waiting to happen. I know where my money is. And I expect Mills to throw his toys out of the pram. For. A. Change.

Henry lacks the pace he had as a teenager (or he did when he was at Readng) so he is more about dribbling skills than kicking the ball ahead of him and outpacing his man, he is an excellent crosser of the ball. So it will all depend on Harte's ability to stop those crosses and deal with Henry's dribbling skills.

Henry has enough about him to cause Harte problems, he's done it to better left backs, but he won't have to get past him to do it.

As other have said, he's a lot more about quality of delivery and also clever passing to play around the opposition than someone like Kebe. Henry will create some good opportunities for Millwall, it just depends how well they convert them or how well Mills deals with Morison.

Millwall is usually one of the better games to look forward to - certainly in terms of liveliness / tastiness - and certainly compared with the Watford fixture which I endured out of a sense of duty.

Long is still getting injections in his hip to allow him to play, if we don't let him take a break to heal surely thats going to turn into a bigger problem.
