Spent some happy times in one of the new flats they built on the site of the Old Den with my first wife (who was a Palace, not Millwall, fan). They're in no danger of going under through any action of Lewisham council, which is good as one of my sets of cousins (and their husbands) come from Bermondsey and I'm quite happy to retain bragging rights.
Well I think Simon's head is large; always involved in espionage. (Name that tune) |

Don't really know the details of what's happening, but would not help them if they are going bust. In fact, I hope they do. They are the only club in the football league I would love to rot into non existence. Would sympathise with any other club, even Brighton. 'No one likes us, we don't care' - let's see how that proud stance helps them over the next few weeks. Vile chavs.

I thought the issue was affecting not the ground/club but the charitable trust? That's more of a shame to me as, despite their club/fans, the trust has won a lot of awards I think and seems to be highly thought of. It would be a shame to lose a community asset like that and replace it with yet more new flats.
Employee of the month is a good example of how someone can be both a winner and a loser at the same time. |

No one likes them. But, should we care? Millwall could lose their ground, thanks to Lewisham Council. They might even go out of existence. Personally, I would do something to support their struggle to stay in existence. If anyone asked me. I think fans should stick together What do you think? Am I a lunatic? Having been a fan of Palace and my local non-league team, both having stared into the eyes of going out of existence, I wouldn't wish it upon any supporters of any club. So on that basis, you're not a lunatic no. I'm not very well educated in the details of this particular issue, but in principal I'd not want this to happen to any club.

I'm supporting more for the fact of the conflicts of interest with former Lewisham Mayor being the founder of the developer but also agree that no club should have to move or be forced out of existence.

I'm hoping they fold before the season ends , they're knackering up a pre season treble I put on. Anyhow , nothing would give me greater pleasure than sitting outside the ground grabbing the popcorn and watching the first wrecking ball smash though the main stand. Now that's special moment.
