I've only heard this second hand but Millwall were locked out of South Bermondsey Station while Middlesbrough fans were escorted to the trains, so we might not be held back this year .

Unlikely but if indeed true I would say that’s more likely to do with logistics in that Boro fans have to get back to the North East and holding them back would have just caused them unnecessary hassle and potentially missing trains pre-booked and then causing a high demand for trains back home.

I would say with a high degree of certainty that stuff like that would not enter the Old Bills decision making process. No way, Pedro.

Well done Charlton.

Or perhaps they wrongly underestimated the c*** levels within the Millwall fan base, not everything the club does has to have a sinister side.

If that is the case they underestimated the potential for trouble from that lot then that is sheer foolish

"1. The police and club to consult with and share major decisions on crowd control / management with all relevant parties, including CAST."

Surely by being part of the safety advisory group this reccomendation would have been met?

It’s a strategic body that plans and reviews. It’s ultimately advisory to the council. It’s not the usual forum for operational matchday decisions.

I get that, but I'm sure any that major decisions regarding keeping us back / rerouting would have been brought up during this meeting? If it was, then surely all parties could have put out a message?

I see that wrong'un freak 'Moody' has reappeared on the Millwall forum with a full-scale rebuttal of @PragueAddick's letter to Len Duvall. Paragraph by paragraph (and they call *us* anoraks!)

He obviously couldn't help himself, it's like our club live rent-free inside his head despite our inability to beat them.

Either a CAFC fan had it off with his missus, or 'Moody' is a pseudonym for that wife-beating spanner 'journalist'...

Right...I suppose I shouldn't let that go unanswered. Which forum is it? and could you, or anyone else, summarise what's the previous from this bloke?

Don't do it Prague 'eeeess not wurf it.

Yup ignore it. Waste of energy and time.

OK.. dont know anything about the bloke, wondered if he had anything half-way rational to say…

He's a spanner and consequently that is unlikely.

before the game - 2 stewards on Gate 21 and 2 stewards in JS stand 

after the game  11 stewards & man in grey suit, odd that no stewards on the other side of Gate 21 which i believe is where the opposition can get to the bolt to open the unlocked Gate 21? 

I've had a season ticket in East Stand since it opened and used Bartrum gate and never seen Charlton fans wanting to get into JS stand? Its good that club have steward presence after Millwall broke through but feels now OTT having the posse of stewards just in our side, why not have them in both sides as this is where the trouble will come from? Whats the logic?
