Millwall away

[BladeTillIDie]

When was the last time we won down there? Please don't say it was when Geary scored that half volley under Warnock about 14 years ago

Give me a point now!

Funny enough at the old Den or The Den to be precise we seemed to do quite well there.

 

[sitwell]

I remember winning there 4-1 a long time ago. we would have taken a defeat to be honest as our mark 3 Cortina was the only car in the car park after the game with the coaches. We got targeted under the bridge and followed through London ,this all after having eveything thrown at us including bricks and half a telegraph pole ,plus some cockney geezer walking amongst us all with a flick knife as we were held after the game. The good old days

We have won at Millwall twice since then. The most recent win was in November 2010 during the catastrophic relegation season. We won 1-0 and Andy Reid scored the goal.

Only ever been down there once, 78-79 ish.
A horrible experience. Think we drew 1-1.
Coach windows smashed. Didn't cross back over Thames until 18.15pm, long journey home.
Proper nutjobs down there. Don't know if they have softened up these days.

[1993]

We really are due a win there having lost the last 3 times. Fancy us as well with the form they’re in.

 

[Large Mendonca]

Pussycats last season, although i think the whole experience of the coaches going direct into the away end enclosure makes a big difference - it could be another story via foot/tube.

Didn't find it particularly intimidating in the ground either, but that could be because i'm hard

 

[Wapping Blade]

I remember winning 4-0 and singing “40 c***s sat in a stand...”. Without looking it up it must have been the late 2000s.

It certainly makes a difference. Greenwich beforehand plus it's one of those games the coked up little tossers who follow us give a miss. For obvious reasons.

It shows you how much quality in championship have gone up. When you think the season before the relegation year we finished 8th with most of that team. Last years team is a country mile better but came 10th

Promotion season. Remember Webber getting a couple.

More of the same next Saturday please, my first time at Millwall. Arriving in London around 10:30

Went to each of them.. not going on Saturday so bound to win this one!

But Webber doesn't play for us anymore...………………………...

Andy Reid.
What a player courtesy of gary speeds clientèle.

Ironically, i've only ever seen 4 people snort coke in my life, and all on the day i visited Millwall last season

 

[fintious maximus]

Don’t worry, we’ll win there next weekend.

Shame really, I bet a 2005/06 Webber would be great in this team!

Yep Tuesday night

 

[Ricky]

It looks like a great chance for us to win there.

They're in poor form, there's no Saville and his replacement Leonard is ineligible.

But I'd take a point now. Poor recent record there and it's the sort of game we lose. That said, it might be a better chance for 3 points than Blackburn.

 

[dublin 10 blade]

There twice both at the old den
1-1 draw and
4-1 victory yes there a mad shower of fuckers but I tell ya what back then if the met police took matters into hand as quickly as SYP did back then , they wouldn’t have got the rep they got
Coppers were soft as shit down south back then but saying that , we weren’t shy about giving it back either
Another time was when I was invited to go to chessie to watch them play there they needed to win to stay up they won 1-0
Invaded the pitch at the end and ran chesterfield off there kop
They’d already had hassle with Man U fans early as well
Knew a couple of their geezers from Herne Hill
Sound blokes , like us working class ( sorry Swizzler ) take no shit , hard working , no nonsense, like it or lump it blokes
If we play like we can , and not like last season reckon we could get something there

I went by train / tube, drinking in pub by London Bridge before match heaving with blades fans then about 10,000 coppers lining the strange fenced gangway direct from the station to the away end. I've seen more danger of trouble at Tunbridge Wells FC

To anyone going this season, the pub was Bunch of Grapes - it took barely 20 mins to get from the pub to the ground, just a few minutes on the train from there. But take out a mortgage before you go if you're not used to the price of beer in London pubs . Hope we play better thn we did that day, one moment of genius from both Duffy and Brooks but the rest was shite

I bloody missed that goal too, going for a piss !

So if Millwall away is a better chance than Blackburn away, and you’d be happy with just one point from Millwall, does that mean you’ll be happy with zero points from Blackburn?

Another factor to give us an advantage is

Millwall play Fulham in the EFL cup on Tuesday night, let’s hope it goes to extra time.
We have a full free week to rest and recuperate.

Was there at that one two.
Steve Neville scored two goals and Pedro Verde another - a sliding tackle at the edge of the area that he hooked in across the keeper.

Split kop end - separated by metal fencing thst didn't stop the hail of coins and other ammo raining down on us.

First time I'd experienced air conditioning in a coach ...

They were in poor form before we played them last season if I remember rightly. They beat us then went on a great run.
