Into the Lions' Den, Millwall away, 18th Oct. Match thread

[TANGODANCER]

" An absolute corker" is how micman described Sammi's goal. We're sniffing again and.....we have another corner. And.....Spearing and......part cleared and a throw us. That's Millwall 0, Bolton 1 in case anybody missed it....

[TANGODANCER]

Free kick them on halfway and....Craig and....Spearing gives away a corner. Williams and.....it's close but it ends up with Howard. Clough sets us off again. Bit of to and fro then we're off again. Madine gets nothing again but Beevers wins a free at our end. Homers growling already as Beevers goes down and the physio comes for a visit. They visit now and Fred and Romeo?? get in the act. Throw them and a bit of forward attack comes to naught.

[TANGODANCER]

Mic man making hopeful noises about another goal fo the Whites as we visit Gigg Lane. Now then..Clough has a handball appeal turned down. Madine getting mentioned then Romeo tries climbing our balcony but is repulsed. Again Romeo tries and Zac gets a silly yellow for throwing the ball away. Could do without that....Free Millwall and...ohhhh Howard has to make a "great" save from Morrison but gets a goalkick.

[Little Green Man]

I think Ameobi has just equalled his best goal tally for a season.

[TANGODANCER]

Ameobi sets forth, now Wilson and Spearing and we get a free kick. Wheater and.....it's a goal kick to the homers. Beevers feeds Madine but we lose out. Throw us and Thorpe feeds Taylor. Thorpe loses out to Fred but Romeo concedes a throw to us. And...Clough goes....Romeo clears....Beevers, Webster and ....some scores then....throw them and Fred advances forth.
Come on lads, not easy but another goal would be very welcome. Ameobi clearing his lines and then we set forth via Wilson. Romeo comes visiting, then Fred and......we clear a bit scrambled. Thorpe is down but Millwall play on and.....Thorpe "not well" claims micman. Bolton unhappy but the ref can't do much. Let's go to Gigg Lane (if we must) Thorpe is off with an apparent ankle injury and Derrik to sub.

[TANGODANCER]

Shakers score...we are told ( Neil Danns pen) as we get a goal kick. Vela and Clough go then bring in reinforcements. Homers get a free kick for no apparent reason? And...now the Machine gets a free and Howard takes. Romeo sneaks in and dashes forth. Fred now and they're here again. Throw them and.....a header is way over.

How come the injury curse never strikes trotter?

[TANGODANCER]

Bit of head tennis then Webster almost gets the homers in trouble with a dodgy back pass and......ohhhhhh Archer saves well from Zac and it all ends back with Howard. And Howard again as we ....go to Gigg Lane...again. No change and here we are again at the Den. And....we go forth and....and Deryk gets in and swerves one...somewhere.

Throw them and....Zac Goes...and makes a poor pass. Throw them and the homers scream "Penalty" but get a corner instead. to and fro and .....Morrison shaves one past for a deflected corner. And Williams and....Madine clears and then Romeo has a deflected corner given. Williams again and....Howard grabs it.

How come the injury curse never strikes trotter?

He's never involved enough to get injured.

Bradford 1 up against Tango Man's lot.

[TANGODANCER]

Beevers and Wheater stride ahead and we have a bit of a chat about this and that before we clear then Morrison wins it and Vela gives away a free kick.....Ref goes for his pocket and pulls out....a spray. Throw them again as we tick towards oranges and lemons time. Oh, Gigg Lane again as the Wombles equalise the Shakers. Anyway...back at the Den, the ref stops play and.....is a homer playing possum? Home support screech at the ref. Throw us now and....some more scores then....Ameobi goes and....and...Wilson and....they clear via Romeo. Back they come and....it's over the bar for a golakick us.

[Nicko58]

Scunthorpe are losing, which is good us but less good for my betting coupon.

[TANGODANCER]

We go and.....and....Clough and....and....Madine and Wilson and....a throw us. Free kick now then a throw and then a free kick off Madine.Is it time yet?....Here they come again and....Ameobi clears. Derryk now and.....Clough and.....Romeo clears. and...three mins up 1-0 us at the break.

Sheff wed?

[TANGODANCER]

Back in the inferno, have we saved the energy to contain, strike and put this to bed?...course we have. Part Two commences. Free kick to Zac right off. Mic man wombles about this and that and meanwhile the game goes on. Zac Madine Vela and Spearing all figure before Romeo and Fred stop us temporarily......then we go but it ends with a throw them. Mic man tells us how it should be before a bicycle attempt er, rolls past a post. Throw us now and.....and...they clear, we send it back and......we get another free kick. 25 out, Zac hovers and.....and.......sends it over the top and into the seats. They sally, we clear and Hokey Cokey resumes.

[TANGODANCER]

Some ping and ponf before they get a quick free....and a bad cross gives us a throw. Madine does well and gets a free kick. Spearing sends it in and.....they clear, and clear again for a throw to us. Shakers and Wombles still 1-1. Vela strays offside.
Millwall free kick and we clear. Back at their end, they clear. It's all clear.

They visit and have some possession but it ends with a goalkick. Mic man makes some noise about league positions before they get a throw. Wheater then Clough clear our lines. Clough loses out to Romeo and....Taylor eases it out for a goalkick. Homers swap O'Brien for Thompson. They come at us and...Beevers gets us a free.
