Club Connections

The first name that comes to mind is Neil Harris.

He played for Millwall and had two spells as manager, with the latest one being up to earlier this season.

He also had a spell as our manager.

Rival Players

Joe Bryan spent many years at our Severnside rivals Bristol City.

The Opposition's Manager

Alex Neil was appointed Millwall manager last month.

He has managed teams such Norwich, Preston, Sunderland and Stoke.

Probably best known from his time as Norwich manager, he successfully took them to the Premier League in 2015.

He also was in charge of Sunderland when they were promoted from League One in 2022.

Opposition Dangerous Players

Calum Scanlon, on loan from Liverpool, is very highly rated. Has been injured for virtually the whole season but made his return on Saturday.

Duncan Watmore is an experienced Championship forward and has five goals in the league this season.

Head To Head 

We have won two of our last five against Millwall.

We won the home fixture back in October.

Millwall have now completed the sale of teenage winger Romain Esse to Crystal Palace for a reported fee of £12m that could rise to £14.5m if add-ons are met.

That’s the way to make money

Every point until 50 ish is vital. Every game a cup final
But the lads are more than capable

Spot on

Noticed when I ordered our tickets, it was for the bottom tier ! Must be a mistake surely, other than lad who went over the top a few years ago I cant ever remember us being in the lower tier.

Could do with finding out about the pay on the gate situation. Another couple interested following Saturdays performance.

They must have changed the policy as Hull fans were in the lower tier on Saturday, Cant imagine they had both upper and lower.

I would have thought that too. But actually they were in both the upper and lower, they took 1700 apparently which for an early saturday kick is pretty good going.

Undefeated in 6, on a roll. Away win!

Tickets will be available to buy on matchday from the North Stand Ticket Office at The Den.
away supporters bar and food outlets can be found at the North Stand Bar, open 90 minutes prior to kick-off.

Good stuff, seems to be a rarer thing these days you can buy away tickets on match day.

Any idea how many are travelling? I’m keen to pop across for it.

A mate text me to say Riza is apparently ok to be there tomorrow. Is that right?

I thought he was banned because of the red card?

Might be wrong but that's normally the case.

Millwall have won four of their last six league games against Cardiff City (L2), with three of those wins coming on home soil.

Cardiff City will be looking to complete a first league double over Millwall since the 2012-13 season after winning the reverse fixture 1-0 in October.

Millwall have lost each of their last three league games in midweek; they last endured a longer run in April 2013 (run of four).

Cardiff have won just two of their last 21 away league games in London (D5 L14), conceding 44 goals in that time (2.1 per game).

Cardiff are on a great little run undefeated in 6 games while Millwall and sliding down the table fast with just 2 Wins from their last 13 games including 7 defeats

I think we will make changes to freshen it up and rest some tired legs.Siopis fit Ralls.Colwill and NG coming in too.

What pubs are people going to before the game? Thanks

We normally go down Borough Market, normally the Market Porter although my mate wants to go to a pub in East Dulwich tonight, so to be honest not sure.

Is it pretty safe wherever you go up there?

I’ve never had any issues, was asking more for atmosphere etc

its fine down borough market area. just be respectful on the train to the ground. Take the away fans exit as your leaving the platform at South Bermondsey, om the right a little way after the bottom of the stairs. I'm off to East Dulwich.

Got a feeling 3-1 to us tonight and a win on Saturday before being brought back to earth vs Leeds

Robertson is the big miss, been brilliant lately.

I think Ashford could have started too.
