The defeat at Upton Park was an extremely disappointing result. To have West Ham down to 10 men after just nine minutes of the game after a crude challenge by Kevin Nolan on Jack Smith meant the West Ham captain would play no further part in the game.

So much for the FA cup providing a welcome distraction from our poor league form.

Defeat at Leeds United saw Millwall pegged back in the fight at the bottom of the Championship table.

What a difference a couple of wins make. Things were looking desperate and we could barely score a goal, but after Saturday's 4-1 mauling of Ipswich on the back of the 3-0 win at Leicester things are looking much better. We are now up to 17th in the table which is a massive improvement.

Ian Toal, of Millwall Supporters Club, is pleased to see the Lions pick up a valuable away point.

What a relief it was to get a point up at The Riverside on Saturday against a Middlesbrough team flying near the top of the table. So bad has our away form been this season it was our first away point since the opening day draw against Reading.

I'm glad to get the West Ham match out of the way. With the Hammers' excellent away form and our average opening to the season, they were the bookies' favourites and I'm sure a lot of our supporters were apprehensive before kick-off.

Although it's very early in the season things are just a little bit worrying down at The Den.
