I'm not sure why anyone would want to revel in any team possibily folding - even Millwall. Football historically is a massive part of people's life in London I for one hate to see clubs fold. While I wish our friends from down the road all the bad luck on the pitch . Off it, the rivalry between us is part of supporting Charlton.

I'm not convinced that I want to see them fold completely. A big drop down the leagues and an enforced tenancy at somewhere like Fisher would suit me fine.
Echoing everthing that @Bedsaddick typed: - does anyone REALLY want to see Millwall shut up shop and disappear ? .. I can say with certainty that I don't .. they have long been one of our major rivals, not to say bête noirs (French dicto required) .. local derbies are 50% of what professional football is all about and who else terrifies the Addicks fans so much as the 'Wall ? .. I reckon that a large portion of the 'hatred' expressed against them on here is simply jealousy and chagrin .. no matter how bad they get and no matter how good we are .. we still can't fecking beat them ...
Holloway must be costing Millwall a fortune, the number of players he's brought in over the last 2 months, after similarly signing far too many players for Palace after they got promoted.
The mugs don't realise that Berylson is bankrolling them. They are apparently losing £10m pa. Much bigger wage bill than us apparently. The ground thing is a reference to something Lewisham are up to. @sparrows lane lion was trying to do something about that but he suffers from being in a small minority down there who have brains.
Personally I don't think they're at that stage just yet. I wish them to get thumped every week, but not go out out of business. And although I wouldn't personally go on a Millwall forum, @Big_Bad_World@MillwallFan and @Sparrows Lane Lion are quite decent posters and have made some decent contributions on here.

I want Millwall to exist as well, imagine having no rivals to laugh at when they lose, it would like being an MK Dons supporter...
First fixtures i look for each season along with the Nigels when they are also in our league. Get rid of local rivalries and the football calendar would be completely turgid. Will normally raise a smile when I see them or Palace lose but no way I would want either of them to fold.

Good post. We need to be careful about giving it large as its only February. I reckon Millwall will stay up and let's not forget they won at Forest and Birmingham the other week. They appear capable of pulling off a big result if they really need to somewhere and I don't think that Rotherham are. They will get something up there Saturday. Don't particularly want to see anyone go out of business either. It'd just be good to beat them occasionally.
I'm not really sure where their worry is? Sadly Berylson is still keeping them afloat and I have not heard he is about to call it quits? Also I fully expect them to beat Rotherham on Saturday and stay up yet again on the last day. Plus they have a Cup Final on Good Friday to look forward to? The only plus from our side is Ollie somehow is still in a job.....
I'm not sure whether most of the comments are serious or banter. It doesn't matter how much you dislike Millllllwal there is not a single reason to want them to go out of existence. There are loads of millwall and charlton fans that are good friends/relatives and I would support them if their existence is threatened just like some of their supporters backed charlton party. I love the banter between the clubs but please stop this nonsense of wanting another club to go out of existence.
Yes, Palace disappearing would just be doing football a favour. Nigel 'ultra' mugs. Millwall are a proper football club but my preference would be to see them disappear to L2 for the next 20 years.
No problem with a bit of rivalry, but after working in Deptford for a few years and knowing some Millwall supporters, I personally would not like to see them fold, relegation yes, but not fold.
Can't stand em, goes back 50 years but that's another story. Should have been slung out by the FA decades ago for their notoriety. No one likes em so why should I care!
I'd pay good money to see the look on those stripey mugs as their club disappears. Sadly it will never happen.....
I got into a slanging match with a Nigel on reddit last week, it's been so long since I spoke to one it really stoked my desperation to see them beneath us again. And I started thinking, if they came down and screwed up the first season like we did, would they plummet? Or is the PL earning them so much money now that they'll have a better shot at returning than we did?

must admit i have 50 years of south east london football rivalry experience and id like it to continue ...after all this is only a game /sport and i am sure we all share friends families who support the other 2 ...of course we want CAFC to be top of the heap but let the others exist in order that they can be worse than us

But ...as much as I detest them ... I'd prefer the spanners to stay around.
Lets face it, if anyone had any proper perspective they would never be a buyer of that mob would they?!
I spoke to a spanner recently who hoped they would get relegated, so they could come back stronger.......
Why not organise a boycott of Qatar World Cup.
Let em rot
