Toyed with us by sitting back and riding their luck as we missed chances! Hardly an easy win. One of the worst sides to visit HP. Seem to have improved.

Indeed, I don't think your first reaction to getting a lottery jackpot would be "Why is it a suitcase of £50 notes? What am I meant to do with this?"
Watched the home game on tv. I thought Millwall did a professional job on us and showed our naivety a bit. Having said that we could easily have got a result and the challenge that led to their last goal was simply an assault. Sat's game is def winnable. Do I feel confident? No we are clearly not in a run of good form. Anyway how I "feel" will have no bearing on the result. Which is just as well given my tendency towards pessimism.
Thinking about the positives. Musing over results (ours and others) will prove nothing before the game. However what the season has shown is that despite our deficiencies we are capable of getting a result against anyone and a draw would very likely do us.
Also on a positive note if we do limp over the line we have finished the season without a manager, overcome a period of massive instability and gone through the season with evident gaps in the squad (ie up front). Therefore although I am not very optimistic that next season will be anything other than a struggle we may be in a far far better placed after the summer.
I expect people will be raving about any signings that we do make, I will reserve judgement until they have played a few games. Likewise I will try not to write off younger players who are still developing.
Final positive, I am finding the nature of discussion on Pasoti so much better since the Foster episode. It was often a tough read a few weeks ago.

Are we not, though? 7 points from four games post-Foster is pretty good. If we'd lost to Leicester and beaten Stoke, we'd all be feeling pretty confident I think.
Reasons to be positive... we're in OK form and we have two hits to get points from sides who are not world beaters with (probably) nothing to play for, plus I'm putting a bet on us to go down at 8/1 and I never win bets
Millwall were absolutely awful at Home Park, Argyle were even worse in front of goal that night though.

4 pts (52 points) should easily be enough. In fact I'd suggest that 1 pt would probably see us safe on GD.
And who's going to create them? If ND and KN are going to stick with their template formation through to the end of the season, that means the responsibility for progressing the ball up the pitch will lie almost solely with Bali Mumba. That's why Sorinola has to play a role. The guy offers so much more in an attacking sense than Joe Edwards. In fact, he has as many goal contributions in 519 Championship minutes as Edwards has managed in 1,988.
Devine should also probably feature. We all know he's no Finn Azaz but a midfield of Randell and Houghton offers almost zero attacking threat. Stick Devine in alongside them and play Morgan in a more central role just behind Hardie.
It won't happen, though.
On a positive note we are going to Millwall on Saturday by train.
Where is everyone going for a few drinks before the game?
I see most away fans stop off at London Bridge on route any ideas?

Ridiculous comment. They used all their championship experience to absorb all the first half pressure then second half applied the sucker punch. It was like watching an amateur boxer against a professional. Not pretty to watch admittedly but very effective.
Craft beer nirvana. Tweed, brogues and well-manicured facial hair optional (for females).

Absolutely no need for your first 2 sentences. Please discuss and debate things in a reasonable way.
Thats not my point. We should be aiming for 3 points every game. The expectation is we get 6 points and not rely on other results or GD.
