Millwall by Matt Little (Brain)

Wow this is the weirdest football related article I think I have ever read.

Reads as though a 12 year old has written it who has no realisation of the consequences of his actions. What a prat.

"Not that I think throwing bottles is big or clever – in fact it’s a bit cowardly.

I would much rather they followed our Millwall forefathers, who exactly 45 years ago to the day attacked the Plymouth team bus after the Pilgrims ended our 59 home game unbeaten run."

I don't know how you can read this any other way?

Can't see what the fuss is about. It's not a surprise what he says is it ?

Suggest you read it again rocky - nothing to do with opinions - it's very clear. oh deary me.

I would much rather they followed our Millwall forefathers, who exactly 45 years ago to the day attacked the Plymouth team bus after the Pilgrims ended our 59 home game unbeaten run


What does this mean then


to me it reads instead of throwing bottles i would rather you samshed the away teams bus after they beat Millwall


At no point does it insinuate that i wish they would have been following Millwall 45 years ago

Stopped reading when I got to "As I was chopping the veg listening to the radio on Sunday....."

Sounds like one of the the "play the hard man geezer when at 'Wall with the lads loving the aggro before reverting back to being the middle class "modern man" running round after the missus and begging for the remote control so he can catch a glimpse of Top Gear between cooking her tea and hoovering round her feet" element they attract from the leafy suburbs.
Ergo I follow Millwall therefore I'm a bit tasty (even though I went to a soft grammar school and work in accounts).

Will read the rest later and perhaps he's not a prize plonker but I'm not holding my breath.

nth london addick - As I said before to me that means he would much rather the people who threw bottles on Saturday went back in time 45 years rather than follow the Millwall of 2012.

correction ... apologies newsshopper ...

yeah i read it the other way but see where you're coming from

i'd hope it is the way you read it ... but knowing that scummy lot you never know !

Anyone that yearns for Muscat it a twat IMO, whatever he says about throwing bottles.

If as Newshopper is saying it was meaning something along the lines of "Millwall 2012 doesnt want fans like that" he'll be sorely disappointed as it's (rightly or wrongly) part of what they're about as a club.

Other than those from the manor or with family ties to the club why else would new support flock there from as far flung places as medway if it werent for the rep and "I'm 'ard by association"....it aint for the football.

Sorry News Shopper, but the way you're interpreting it would read "I would much rather they followed Millwall with our forefathers, who exactly 45 years ago to the day attacked the Plymouth team bus after the Pilgrims ended our 59 home game unbeaten run" what he has said is that he would rather they "followed" their forefathers example.

Either way there is alot in this piece that glamourises violence (the mention of Muscat is particuarly tasteless given his track record).

And surely this line states that he's proud of the violence at Millwall
"They would think I was pretty perverse for being proud of my club after a 6-0 home drubbing, amid scenes of bottles being launched onto the pitch and an opposition player being subbed for his own safety"

This is a really poor article and IMO shouldn't have been published.

@mid_life_crisis - Don't be so bloody sensitive . If you don't like it say why. To call for it to be withdrawn is pathetic . It's a badly written article and because of that he makes himself look an idiot , that's the only problem I see with it.( and the fact that he's a spanner )

The blokes a #### but he's just showing himself up. He's doing no harm.

They also don't seem to be able to grasp the difference between fame and infamy
