No-one likes them we don't care…

So it seems that West Ham losing at Wimbledon was all a clever plot to avoid playing Millwall in the next round. The police must be relieved not to be dealing with rampaging fights through Westfield and the potential for disorder among the vast spaces and rivers around the London Stadium is huge. A West Ham versus Millwall Cup tie would surely have had to kick off at 8am to avoid trouble…

I predict a football match

Off to the Millwall game soon with a rolled up copy of Guardian Sport and a copy of John Lanchester's brilliant expose of the credit crunch, Whoops! Just hope I can get them past the Old Bill searching the fans outside the ground. And talking of well hard Kew Gardens Irons, my pal Nigel says he sincerely hopes the Millwall fans remember to use the recycling bins round the back of the away section.

Another fine mess

Well, the £115,000 fine for the Millwall aggro seems ok to me. It could have been a lot worse and is small change compared to what we owe Sheffield United.

Lucky they didn't take into consideration several aggravating beer-guts and some dodgy trainers and that bird with the handbag…

I Predict a diet

The Daily Mail blames all the Millwall trouble on the film Green Street. Could Elijah Wood and a mockney accent really do that?

And the other thought is that to judge by the pictures of the pitch invaders the Green Street Elite are not so elite any more, just a bit well, fat. Come and have a go if you think you're lardy enough...

So that's what a lifetime of eating all the pies and dining at Belly Busters does for you... they look like they should take on the F-Plan diet rather than Millwall's F-Troop.

I Predict a riot

West Ham 3 Millwall 1 (aet)

What a bloody week. After Davenport's stabbing and the death of Jack's dad comes riots and pitch invasions against Millwall. "YOBS" reads the back page of the Sun, along with "thugs drag soccer back into the gutter". A relief to have been on holiday for this one and would it have been worth going anyway? You have to say that maybe all West Ham versus Millwall games should perhaps now be played behind closed doors.As it is, we risk expulsion from the Carling Cup after such scenes

Yes, a section of the Millwall support are horrible, but there's no excuse for the pitch invasions or the supporters who stayed outside all game rucking. Tottenham was acceptable banter between the fans, but this was war with two stabbings, brickings and more.

On the pitch it was positive to see Junior influence the game (although that sprint to the fans after scoring was inadvisable in such an atmosphere) and Gabbidon got through a full match after two years' out. Zavon Hines also scored a tasty goaland might help solve part of our striking problem.

But the only true bravery on display last night came from Jack Collinson who played two days after the death of his father in a motor bike crash and left the pitch in tears. That took courage, unlike joining in with the rival firms.

No one likes them... we don't care

Been watching Green Street after the Carling Cup draw against Millwall, only sadly it seems few of our middle-class home crew are standing their ground. Nigel's in France, Matt's scarpered to Australia and yours truly will be in Saltaire, Yorkshire. So it looks like it's down to Fraser and the Gav to hold the East Stand...
