ALEX SMITHIES
Undone by an awkward bounce on Danny Schofield’s cross for the goal but otherwise solid. 7
ROBBIE WILLIAMS
The goal came from down his side but he never stopped working against former Town man Schofield. 7
LEE PELTIER
Strong show at right back and his dangerous low cross after 63 minutes almost brought a goal. 7
DANNY DRINKWATER
Found it hard to get going against Liam Trotter but improved in the second half when on the ball. 6
PETER CLARKE
Led by example in the centre of defence and was again an inspirational rock throughout the contest. 8
NEAL TROTMAN
Made a great second-half tackle on Morison but came under pressure from the big striker. 6
ANTHONY PILKINGTON
Had one dangerous cross punched over the bar by David Forde but his influence was infrequent. 6
ANTONY KAY
Another to find it tough in the middle where Trotter and Scott Barron were solid for Millwall throughout. 6
JORDAN RHODES
Had only scraps to feed off and took a battering from the Milwall back four. Was taken off for Theo Robinson. 6
LEE NOVAK
Worked terrifically hard once again but had only one real shot which forced Forde into a sliding save. 7
GARY ROBERTS
Town’s most creative player on the night, he was at the heart of several of his side’s promising moves. 7
