Harris looking for reaction against Cardiff

Millwall boss Neil Harris was not a happy man last night.

Not only did he see his side crash out of the FA Cup to lesser opposition, in a 1-0 defeat to Rochdale, but he called the Dale fans “a disgrace” and is desperate for Millwall to respond positively against Cardiff City.


Neil Harris was unhappy their fans ran on to the pitch to 'goad' his club's supporters.


NEIL HARRIS:


'I thought the Rochdale fans were a disgrace at the end,' said Harris, who verbally confronted some of them on the pitch.

'Our fans were goaded, it wasn't quite right. My players were treated very badly, and me and the staff were abused. As a football club, we have the stick pointed at us fairly often.'


Yes, I’d have loved to have won this tie and had a home tie in the fifth round. But our big focus is the league and we turn our attentions quickly to Cardiff on Friday night.
Whenever I’ve been in charge we’ve always bounced back, we’ve always followed a disappointment with a positive. I just said to the players ‘you got beaten by the better team’.

Rochdale’s jubilant fans ‘a disgrace’, says Millwall manager Neil Harris after pitch invasion following his team's shock FA Cup fourth round defeat

Daily Mail

Tuesday 7th February 2018

League One Rochdale are facing a dream FA Cup date against Spurs but beaten Millwall manager Neil Harris was unhappy their celebrating fans ran on to the pitch to 'goad' his club's supporters.

Dale skipper Ian Henderson struck after 53 minutes to give the underdogs a famous victory at freezing Spotland - rewarding those volunteers who worked around the clock to ensure the game could go ahead.

After the final whistle around 200 fans congregated in front of Millwall's support who stayed impressively restrained until those on the pitch were ushered away by stewards without any trouble. The FA could now look into the pitch invasion.

Rochdale fans run onto the pitch following their team's victory over Millwall on Tuesday

'I thought the Rochdale fans were a disgrace at the end,' said Harris, who verbally confronted some of them on the pitch.

'Our fans were goaded, it wasn't quite right. My players were treated very badly, and me and the staff were abused. As a football club, we have the stick pointed at us fairly often.'

Rochdale, 23rd in their division, fully deserved their victory with a bobbly and heavily-sanded pitch proving a great leveller.

They will now hope Spurs beat Newport on Wednesday to set up a fifth round tie at Spotland that will be the biggest in Dale's history.


'My head says Newport but my heart wants Tottenham,' said delighted manager Keith Hill.

'Those supporters who worked under the dome (cover) through the night deserved that performance the players gave them.

'The state of the pitch is poor but the work that has gone in to get the game on has been tremendous.'

Championship Millwall, the 2004 FA Cup finalists, failed to register a shot on target in the first half and were made to pay when Calvin Andrew beat Jason Shackell down the left and crossed for Henderson to turn in his 20th goal of the season

Neil Harris played for us, scored for us then left in a blink of an eye and went to in his mind a bigger club [Forest] who City promptly stuffed at xmas and his team were relegated.

I don't have as much hatred for Millwall as some down to the fact I am too young to really be involved in the previous games back in the day to dislike them although like everyone will join in with the anti chants as it creates an atmosphere.

But yeah I hate Millwall. :laughing6: :ayatollah:
I will.

It really annoys me when managers of mid table clubs say our priority is the league. Why? It’s not like their going up or down so concentrate on the cup.

They could still go down ( not likely ) if Hull start picking up point and Millwall lose 4 or 5 on the bounce... You have to play until the very end in the championship IMO
