Yeah, those extra time wins turned into a draw, or draw turned into a loss, also crushed Spurs. I think we left 12 points on the table that were ours at the start of stoppage. Just poor closing. Its hurts.

Rovers will have choices to make in the off-season, but there will be strikers, wingers and offensive creative middies looking for a home even if a loaned temp home.

The Spurs still have a good shot at Europa Cup with Brighton getting destroyed by Everton today. BHA has a rough set of matches with Arsenal, Man City, Newcastle, and Aston Villa left to play. Brighton doesn’t have the squad depth for the congestion they face. I’m happy for Everton. I don’t want to see them relegated.

Yes. They can, but given our season, I fully expect to implode. But I will be supporting and yelling at my television either way. I was somewhat hoping Everton might be regulated so there was a fire sale of players.

I saw a clip on YouTube one of the Millwall fans was live streaming the game and he was in the corner closest to where the Blackburn fans were congregated, you could just sense the anger/hatred/tension in the area he was in once rovers went up 4-3 - it brought back so many memories for me of what it was like going to games in London the 80s - ugly is not a strong enough word to describe the mob mentality

I’m slightly disappointed we won’t see the West Ham/Millwall rivalry reignited again next season but yes, that’s probably for the best. We don’t necessarily need a throwback to hooliganism.

The Rovers away supporters were singing I’m Forever Blowing Bubbles after they went ahead at 86’. They were down 3-1 at the half. It’s fun learning about the rivalries and the songs & chants.

singing that at the Den would be like singing flying a confederate flag on the streets of The Bronx

Coventry v Luton playoff is great. Two teams who really deserve it. I think seeing Pep show up at Kenilworth Road would be pretty special. Nothing against Coventry.

Middlesbrough and Sunderland will be there or there abouts next season, been very impressed with Carrick's managerial skills.
