I’ll start this week’s column with my own thank you to all those supporters who signed the ‘Defend Our Den’ petition, ensuring Lewisham Council deferred their decision on the compulsory purchase order.

Of course we’re not out of the woods yet, but hopefully this stay of execution will kick the club into gear in an attempt to find a solution.

No doubt, any further developments will be highly publicised so for now, we can get back to matters on the pitch.

If you’re anything like me, you’ve probably been scratching your heads all season trying to work out how such an accomplished team away from home can put in consistently poor performances on our own patch.

Prior to Saturday’s fixture against Peterborough, I tweeted with some certainty that it would be a comfortable afternoon for the visitors.

After watching Scunthorpe walk away from The Den with three points a few days earlier, I was convinced The Posh - one of the divisions top scorers - would have a field day.

Anyone who watched their FA Cup replay against West Brom a couple of weeks ago would agree they were unlucky to go out on penalties, having outplayed the Baggies at times.

And with players like Erhun Otzumer, Martin Samuelsen and the highly-rated Tom Nichols at their disposal, they do have some useful attacking options.

Of course, what transpired on Saturday goes to show I really have no idea what I’m talking about.

Steve Morison’s brace and Lee Gregory’s 20th goal of the season ensured the Lions ran out emphatic 3-0 winners.

From start to finish we were excellent - special mention must go to young Ben Thompson who battled and tackled his heart out in the centre of midfield.

There are high hopes for Thompson among supporters and manager, Neil Harris. Standing at barely five foot nothing, his diminutive stature hasn’t prevented him from getting stuck in to bigger and more experienced opponents.

News Shopper:

No doubt he will make way for the returning Shaun Williams this weekend, but I really hope he can retain his place in the starting XI.

The other talking point from the win over Peterborough has gone viral. No, I don’t mean the fracas in the Dockers Lower, I am of course referring to Jordan Archer’s unbelievable goal-line clearance from a wayward back pass from Mark Beevers.

From my vantage point in the Cold Blow Lane end, I could see Beevers shaping up to send it back to his keeper.

Nine times out of ten, it would have bounced a few times before reaching Archer. Equally, it would have been a terrific strike had he hit in the opposite direction.

In the end, it took an audacious piece of skill from the young stopper to back peddle, leap and head the ball over his own crossbar.

After eventually picking my jaw up from off the floor, I did wonder why he didn’t just palm it away from danger. However, a quick consultation of the Football Association rule book confirmed that goalkeepers can’t even touch a backpass with their hands these days, let alone pick it up.

News Shopper:

I implore any of you who haven’t seen it yet to seek out the footage. It really is one of those “I was there” moments and will no doubt be talked about by Millwall supporters for years to come.

The win now leaves us fifth in League One, just six points off second spot.

With another away trip to Doncaster coming up, many will be confident of gaining three points.

If we could just maintain some consistency at home, there’s every chance we could be swapping places with our neighbours at the Valley come May.
