Saturday’s last-gasp equaliser for Oxford and disappointing injuries to our talisman Femi Azeez and the experienced warhorse Ryan Leonard combine to send the Lions to St Andrew’s tonight feeling slightly more deflated than might have otherwise been expected.
Unbeaten away from The Den, with four straight wins and sitting in fourth position, this is Millwall’s best start to a season since the League One days of Kenny Jackett in 2008-09.
Alex Neil is a wily operator at Championship level and will take his depleted Lions to Birmingham with the same confidence that so nearly bagged a win at the Kassam Stadium.
‘Nearly’ is such a big word though, isn’t it?
Injuries have bedevilled our season so…
