We will win this. We played last season and won 4-1 which was our best performance under Ismael last season. 

That to me reads that your reasoning is that we will win because we beat them last season.

@roversfan99 and @sharpysharps86 Don't you seriously think I don't what last season team was and this season team then you clearly don't know myself as poster then

Why do you think we will win then when you know half the team from the 4-1 win has left and been replaced with players who aren't as good?

Meanwhile Milwall sit 4th in the league?

Respectfully Chaddy, neither of us are the ones who essentially said 'we will win because we beat them last season' as though there is some sort of magical correlation between the two fixtures 😂.

Thinking Rovers will win is one thing, and fair play if that's what you think....but why even mention last season's result when its completely irrelevant, old news. You don't half set yourself up for it sometimes.

You thought we would get bullied at PNE and lose, but we didn't did we. 

We beaten teams like Hull, Leicester, Bristol City, Southampton this season. 

I will always back my team and the players 🔵⚪

because wrote us off last season when we played them and last season when we played them, we weren't in great form last season, similar to this one yet we played very well, scored some good goals and I hope we can similar on Saturday where I will be there supporting the players and the team

You want the team to win, me too. It isn’t a prediction, we worked that out a long time ago.

If PNE had Ismael, they'd be playing Accrington Stanley in league 2. Unfortunately we've got him.🫣

In 2 years ,we will be if he and the owners stay !

I would change to 4-2-3-1 personally but I dont expect Ismael to do so. Expect either TGH or Morishita at right wing back. Hopefully Toth and Hedges will be back for this

19 times out of 20 you forecast a Rovers' win - completely defies rationality.  There is a huge difference between a wish and reality.

As for last season, just contrast the two starting line-ups.  From last season's starting 11 against Millwall, we have lost 5 seasoned and proven Championship players whilst a further 3 may well still be missing through injury.

The thought of TGH or Morishita at rwb fills me with horror.

I think Neil and Millwall will have Rovers for breakfast.  Really will be men against boys.  It could be utterly embarrassing.

Is anyone even bothered by the game, truthfully? I will have it on in the background i guess.

Is this a serious question? 

So you wont be attending then or aren't a STH then? 

No respect for fans who want to back the players and team?

I hope we scrape just enough points to stay in the Championship this season, because I know that when we slip through the trap door, that will be it for a generation. At least a decade of lower league rubbish beckons when we eventually go down under this lot. Every other enjoyable aspect of supporting Rovers has been sucked out by the ownership. I still can't (can) believe the catastrophe that has occurred since the club was in 5th place last January. Complete self-inflicted disaster.

Portsmouth and Oxford have tough away games on Saturday so at least we won't be in the bottom 3 on Christmas day i suppose.

Probably saving it till after the Christmas celebrations, bring us back down to earth.

Well yeah because we need to start winning.

You’re damn right we need to start winning. The battle against the owners shouldn’t detract from the fact that we want the team to do well. Anyone who doesn’t can’t really call themselves a fan and may as well toddle off and support someone else.

You can want the team to do well, and not attend. It doesn't make you any the less of a fan.

I’m not talking about not attending. Lots of fans never attend but want the team to succeed. Surely all Rovers fans want that?

millwall recruited very well in the summer and are a formidable side this season,another painful saturday imo,beaten by two set pieces and we hardly trouble their backline
