Millwall are in the bottom 5 and they had a tough midweek game that went into extra time; we havent played for 10 days. We shaded the first half so should have expected to come at them in the second half when they were tiring. We had not enough firepower and nothing at all on the bench. 0-0 seemed to be the limits of our ambition.

You're probably right but Millwall have played 16 games at home this year and only lost 5. So it's another "glass half full or half empty" discussion. I can remember when we lost games like this, irrespective. It's not all gloom.

A win would have been nice but a point ain't that bad.

How do you reckon that one, Millwall have lost the last 3 of their home league games without scoring a goal? Make that 4 home league games without scoring a goal after todays game with us. Lack of ambition off the pitch and on it.

Our squad just isn't good enough to win every away game even if the other team is a weak one. A point away is often what you can get.

Fair comment, but am not talking about winning EVERY away game. In this instance the home side has lost its last 3 home games without scoring so if we had anything about us as a club we would be looking at this fixture as a fantastic opportunity to get an away win, not play our usual brand of dour dismal football.

Sometimes a poor home team just gets lucky. Like Florest today.

Well not all of us. 'http://www.dcfcfans.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';)' />

That we are a mid table to top half team. We missed two good chances and the bench contained players who could maintain the status quo, but not change the game.

Not sure what you mean by that comment, if we had players on the bench who could change the game surely they should be playing from the start? The fact that we had neither is a savage indictment of the poor quality of players we currently have at the club

If you think our players are so poor quality how come you are so dissapointed with a point ?

I think that the players are poor but more importantly the manager instructs them to play an awful brand of give nothing away, unimaginative, grindingly boring football and that in this instance today he set the team out to play in this manner - the fact that we didn't score a goal was really a fait accompli from this point.

I didn't go to be fair today but it just sounded the usual, we will be solid and some times we will nic a win, sometimes we won't. Some fans are happy with the style we are playing, others would like us to be on the attack slightly more. It's a good point as they always are away from home but there are times that teams look there for the taking as possibly millwall today

This was a mind-dullingly dour unimaginative performance that sucked the will to live out of me.

I only usually get to see Derby when they are in London; and I'm yet to see a decent performance in the last 3 years.

It was truly awful. There was nothing to entertain
