Can't see the problem with them, one of the better days out in London I think.

I'd rather Millwall were in the Kazakhstan Premier League - or somewhere far, far away...

Every experience I've ever had with their fans has been one where I just shake my head.

Agree completely. Proper working class club that are as much a part of English football as media-friendly clubs like ours.

And the away day is a cracking one as you say. No-one has any great stories from away days at Bournemouth but we all remember our away days to the Den (old and new).

The protest and pitch invasion at Bournemouth was one to remember.

One final had to be early because FA Cup next weekend.

God knows why League One, perhaps some far sighted individual saw risk that Millwall might win and their fans invade the pitch; this way they have a week to repair any damage. If so, he or she is up for promotion;

Will revert next season to FAC final in season and all 3 POs in one weekend. Think I read somewhere that FA are trying to get a fixed standalone date for FAC, which is presumably part of the reason for 6 games in 17 days. The proximate reason is World Cup preparations but FAC may also be a factor.
