	Millwall - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Millwall sucks is an area in London, on the western side of the Isle of Dogs, in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets.
		Millwall gained some notoriety when, in a council by-election in 1994, Derek Beackon won the British National Party's first council seat there.
		They now play in Bermondsey, which is mainly in the London Borough of Southwark, although the ground itself, is in the London Borough of Lewisham.

	Telegraph Sport Millwall in crisis as Claridge goes
		Millwall were in turmoil last night with the possibility of four directors quitting and supporters planning demonstrations after Steve Claridge was sacked as manager after only 36 days in charge.
		Millwall fan websites were heavy with anti-Paphitis messages after yesterday's bombshell and a demonstration at the opening home game at the Den against Coventry on Aug 9 is inevitable.
		Claridge's sacking will be costly for Millwall, who are about £3 million in debt, because, although he had not signed a contract, it had been agreed verbally and he can expect compensation after his surprise dismissal.

	Guardian Unlimited Today's issues Millwall
		Millwall are in the FA Cup final for the first time in their 119-year history, victory over Sunderland securing their place against Manchester United at Cardiff's Millennium Stadium tomorrow.
		Millwall's is called Oh Millwall, but things could have been different - and all because of besuited 50s crooner Dean Martin.
		Millwall were relegated after two seasons, but the atmosphere of their former ground, the Den, was often something else.

	Guardian Unlimited Football Match Reports Football: Millwall 0 - 4 Sheffield United
		Millwall were so outclassed that the only surprise was that they had managed to go through their previous seven matches undefeated.
		Millwall may claim that they matched United for endeavour but the greater precision of the visiting side gradually infiltrated them and Paul Ifill, an £800,000 signing from the Den, seemed anxious to make an impression when he shot wide.
		Millwall maintained their approach, that of hectic mediocrity, in the second half and little good it did them.

	Independent, The (London): Millwall: the island that time forgot
		Millwall, the western embankment on the island, took its name from the period when a wall existed close to the site of Westferry Road, the main stretch that now underlines that side of the island, and a line-up of mills.
		On some homes, the flags of Millwall and St George have been combined: not in preparation for next month's Euro 2004 competition, but as though the south London team, whose diehard fan base has a history both of racism and of hooliganism, was representing not merely south London, or the capital, but the nation itself.
		Even a Millwall victory will not be up there with the opening of the West India Docks in 1802, or the initial bid to launch the Great Eastern in 1857, each of which provoked mafficking on such a scale that, according to reports "the island went mad".

	Telegraph Sport De Savary takes the helm at Millwall
		Peter de Savary has been named as the new chairman of Millwall - fittingly the man who led the British team for the America's Cup sailing challenge in 1983 was named on the day the South London club were anchored at the foot of the Championship.
		Millwall had been searching for a full-time chairman since Jeff Burnige stepped down just a few weeks after taking over from Theo Paphitis who has assumed a caretaker role since the summer.
		Paphitis said: "I was determined to ensure that Millwall were entrusted into safe hands and that the incoming chairman has the best interests of the club at heart.

	Guardian Unlimited The Guardian Millwall get FA Cup sympathy vote
		The growing pains of Millwall football club are visible on either side of the railway arch that spans Zampa Road, the entrance to the club's ground in Bermondsey, south-east London.
		Millwall fans dispute the events that led to the riot, but the power of those images ensured the reputation stuck.
		Plainly Millwall has moved on, but that said this is a club with a barricaded tunnel several hundred yards long for away supporters to safely make the journey to and from South Bermondsey station.

	Millwall - h 2000-01
		The Latics were unlucky to be level with Millwall, however despite the large amount of possession they went on to command in the first half, they could create little from it.
		This came from a defensive mix-up in the Millwall defence and with a sight at goal on the edge of the area, Corazzin took too long before shooting and lost his chance.
		Whilst the Latics could keep Millwall quiet, they failed to stretch the defence at all.

	Millwall versus the mob
		To newspaper editors, football fans and sociologists, Millwall FC is synonymous with the social plague that is known in this country as Football Hooliganism, and throughout the rest of Europe as the English Disease.
		And Millwall had reached the quarter-final of the FA Cup, an achievement that evoked two images in Millwall's past: the dreadful carnage of the Ipswich game in 1978, and a more glorious and inspiring day in 1937 when the club reached the Cup semi-final by beating Derby County at The Den.
		It is conventional wisdom that football hooliganism was born at Millwall sometime in the mid-Sixties.

	Guardian Unlimited Football Match Reports Wise guidance takes Millwall into the unknown
		Wise said that Millwall's supporters have been "impeccable" since he took over in October, though yesterday their end was not full, due to a ticketing system introduced after a riot at The Den against Birmingham City in the play-off semi-final two years ago.
		Millwall are in the FA Cup final for the first time in their 119-year history.
		Millwall did so despite the injuries which cost them the services of both their captain Kevin Muscat in the 41st minute and the man in front of him in right midfield, Paul Ifill, 10 minutes earlier.

	Telegraph Sport Millwall relish day in the sun
		Wise, the Millwall player-manager, was in that unpopular, unfancied Wimbledon side who stunned Liverpool at Wembley yet even the spitfire midfielder, his combative streak undimmed by the passing of 37 years, admitted that defeating United would register immeasurably higher on the Richter scale of Cup shocks.
		The words Millwall and romance have rarely featured in the same chapter, let alone the same sentence but there is something uplifting about their unexpected passage to Cardiff, not least for their chairman, Theo Paphitis, who has promised to run naked around Trafalgar Square if Millwall reached the final.
		Millwall's record fee paid is £800,000, less than United gave to agents for facilitating the Louis Saha deal.

	UM City - Millwall vs The media
		Millwall have worked endlessly to rid itself of the thug tag that plagues us, introducing the ID cards was a blessing, as was the banning of certain teams to our ground and us to theirs, though a lot of the true fans didn’t like being punished for what the scum do.
		Millwall v Birmingham (2001/2002 season second leg of the playoffs) the media states the riots occurred as Birmingham beat us 1-0, the fact is this was an organised riot, as sadly many of them are.
		Millwall isn’t without it’s hooligan element, a sad but true fact, and when incidents occur like the riots at Luton town fc and with Birmingham city fc the media has the right to report it, but they should ensure they have all the facts before doing so, for instance

		Millwall, who began the day four points adrift at the foot of the table, threatened to pull off a shock victory after two goals from Bruce Dyer.
