Living in that smoggy overcrowded sh*t hole they have to call home is punishment enough.

Point taken, but not everybody that lives nearby is a knuckle-dragging waste of organs. Which implies that they don't have to be.

Millwall fans racist?

Not sure what your point is, are you sticking up for them?

I think he is saying that not everyone that lives in London/East London is a knuckle dragging...well, you get the meaning. I used to live in Canary Wharf, a mere stones throw from Millwall (Isle of Dogs is in Millwall), and I as well as most inhabitants were completely normal people and no more racist than anyone from anywhere. DSB lives in London and is a very decent and affable chap.

Thanks for your interpretation of what he meant but the question is directed at him.

by the way everyone ... #41, on the bench ... Oscar Threlkeld.

Anyone know about the guy ?

Very highly regarded by the junior coaches

Think he was injured by the back end of last years cup run

[TANGODANCER]

What did you make of Ream's part in their goal?

My take on Ream at centreback is that in more games than not he will have a weak moment that gives the opposition a clear goal-scoring opportunity. That's what happened yesterday, isn't it?

I'm not saying that we have a better option at the moment, incidentally.

Have to say I think all this talk of weak moments is a bit naff. There isn't a player in any of the leagues who doesn't have at least one every game. Forwards miss goals, midfielders miss passes and defenders get turned. Their guy just got luck yesterday because that ball could easily have evaded him, bounced kindly for a defender or been deflected away. As luck would have it, it bounced right in his path. For me, it wasn't weakness, just bad luck.

Don't think there are any at our level, but it's about when and where you make your mistakes. Both CD's making a mistake like that every game, wouldn't make them very good CB's in my book.

See Zat Knight for further reference.

"Naff"

Are you speaking Polari?

When I say 'weak' in this context, I am not making a general statement about inconsistency, which is what your examples all seem to speak to.

In Ream's case I am speaking literally about a lack of physical strength.

It sounds like he's been playing well recently, which is great, as we're desperately short of quality at CB, but that goal yesterday is exactly what I think about if I picture Ream's shortcomings - his being shrugged limply out of the way at a very inopportune moment.

They're not doing

I can only remember two notable saves by Lonergan in the last 2 games, plus yesterdays goal of course

One of 'em ballsed up at Bournemouth but the other was quickly around to cover

That, for me, is what they have going for themselves as a pair

Completely different and - for this level - well suited

Don't think Worthy was saying that the current pair have been - partly because Zat Knight hasn't been involved.

Worthy wasn't - so thanks Mummy.

I was just making the point that "no players at this level are mistake-free" which I agree with, all depends on where and when they make their mistakes, as to whether they're a good 'un or a bad 'un.

If any CD made a gaffe like yesterday's every game, they wouldn't be very good as a CD. Regardless of "at this level" or not.

I'm not convinced by either of them against tougher opposition, and Ream, I still don't think is a CD.

That said, as a pairing, they've done ok - we've let 5 goals in, in 7 games, albeit against teams predominantly in the bottom half of the table. So onwards and upwards.
