It’s not often I’ve walked away from the Den feeling so underwhelmed by a home win, but Saturday’s 3-0 victory over Blackpool had an air of inevitability about it.

Although the three points cemented our position in the play-offs, the action on the pitch was pretty dull.

After a brief flirt with the Premier League, Blackpool have plummeted down the divisions in Portsmouth-esque fashion and look destined to drop into League Two.

The highly publicised feud between fans and the Oyston family’s ownership makes our relationship with former manager, Ian Holloway, look positively harmonious.

Dwindling attendances, a lack of investment and an owner seemingly hell-bent on turning an entire town against him, the club really are a basket-case at the moment, and it shows on the pitch too.

The visitors’ defending for Lee Gregory’s opener wouldn’t have looked out of place on a Sunday morning in nearby Deptford Park.

An innocuous-looking throw-in from veteran Carlos Edwards bounced over the heads’ of two defenders allowing Gregory to nod in his 21st, and simplest goal of the season.

You can guarantee had it been us conceding that goal, there would have been uproar.

But looking towards the sparse upper tier of the away end, there was barely a flicker of displeasure.

So downtrodden are the Blackpool faithful, they don’t even have the energy to vent their anger at Neil Macdonald’s team.

Jed Wallace’s second was another the Seasiders’ would like to forget in a hurry.

The Wolves loanee’s scuffed free-kick was obviously too hot to handle for the defensive wall - turning their backs as his effort floated into the net.

In fact, Wallace later compared his first goal for the Lions’ to a scene from Bruce Almighty. A strange analogy, but if you’ve seen it you’ll understand where he’s coming from.

News Shopper:

From then on, the game resembled a training exercise.

It’s often said in football circles that 2-0 is the most dangerous lead to have: concede one and you can start to get the jitters.

At no point on Saturday did that look like happening and Steve Morison’s late penalty put any thoughts of a come back to bed.

Although the result was a foregone conclusion, it was still a perfect way to commemorate Jimmy’s Day - an annual event in memory of 16 year-old Millwall fan, Jimmy Mizen who was tragically stabbed in 2008.

Next up is a trip to Wiltshire to face Swindon Town.

The reverse fixture earlier in the season was not too dissimilar to the weekend just gone - the Robins were appalling that day and a similar performance from them would be welcome.

With a play-off spot looking increasingly likely, the focus now must surely be a late surge for automatic promotion.

Results have been kind to us in recent weeks - let’s hope we can capitalise on them.
