Boycie Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 Derby County F.C. v Millwall F.C. Championship Sat 23 Dec, 15:00 Pride Park Stadium, Derby Derby’s form guide http://www.soccerstats.com/team.asp?league=england2&stats=2-Derby-County Millwalls form guide http://www.soccerstats.com/team.asp?league=england2&stats=12-Millwall Well, Millwall head to Pride Park next weekend. The start of a hectic period for the poor professional footballer, no rest for the wicked they say, and the games come thick and fast, and no doubt many more cliques you could think off. As you can see in the form guide above Millwall haven’t won an away game this season, they don’t seem to let many in away either. So Derby will no doubt be up against the two banks of four again, something Derby can struggle to overcome at home it seems. Millwall won’t bring many I don’t imagine, so the atmosphere could be a bit flat, last game out, Villa’s fans gave the South Standers a good run for their money and the atmosphere was quite good. What about the weather? https://www.metcheck.com/WEATHER/dayforecast.asp?zipcode=Derby&locationID=57581&lat=52.9&lon=-1.5&dateFor=23/12/2017 Cold! +3deg but will feel like 0 apparently, so much like against Villa, blummin freezing! Betting? Home win 8/11. Draw 13/5. Away win 7/2. https://sports.paddypower.mobi/#sport/49/competition/13492/event/13275485 So, lets grind out a result in what will be a hard team to break down. Hopefully Lawrence and Wiemann will both be back to add pace down either side and the midfield will switch play at speed and make the ‘wall defence brick themselves. ? What do you guys think?

Woodley Ram Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 Think we might have to open the gates fully so they can get the bus in, lets hope its not a double decker. Hate these games one quick break and you can be bug**ed. Start with Nugent and then being on CM late on. 1-0 to the Rams for me, lets not get frustrated or write Millwall off they are tricky buggers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mafiabob Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 Don’t be fooled about Millwall....play nice stuff I’ve heard and should have beat Villa last week. Hungry to survive, obviously will struggle more away from home, hence no wins away..... but this ain’t by no means a pushover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ViewsFromTheMiddle Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 Won't be easy but think we'll edge it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sith Happens Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 This is the sort of game I hate, it should be 3 points and that makes it tricky and an impatient crowd could play into Millwalls hands. One of those, score early and we could win 4 or 5 nil, get to 60 minutes and its still 0-0 they could snatch it 1-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We used to live up the road from the Baseball Ground, and I remember being scared witless as an 8-year old when we had our front window smashed by a milk bottle thrown from a group of Millwall fans being chased up the street by the police.

hintonsboots Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 I really need us to win it, not just to push for auto promotion, but because I can't stand Danny Baker and his self indulgent radio show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Ram for All Seasons Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 Relative to Millwall, I have a sort of moderate dislike of *****t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The average person doesn't realize how hard it is to keep this up every week. It always looks easy from the outside, reality say's it is probably very stressful!

DesertRam Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 After looking at the stats, we might go for an asskicking job here, either that, or give them an away win to get them up and running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derby blood Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 Will take a 1-0 win from this, they will come with 10 men behind the ball, it will not be pretty, but these are the games the fans need to stay patient and give the team 100 percent backing, hope we get a early goal, then the game might be different, same 11 who started against Villa if Wiemann is fit, if not then play Lawrence if fit and if he is not available, then play Russell, important game this, please Derby beat this horrible team, then my Christmas will be made.

DesertRam Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 Maybe a few changes for this one... ie Pearce, Winnall Johnson and Thorne etc.. what with the Xmas 4 games in 10 days thingier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DesertRam Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 So, hoping to see, Carson Wisdom Keogh Pearce Forsythe Thorne Ledley Russell Vydra Johnson Winnall Think we will still win this without a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadioactiveWaste Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 I don't think Rowett will change the side very much. I also think Milwall be stubborn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
