They did look a good unit. I think it will depend on who stays - chances of them keeping Mawson, Hourihane, Winnall and Hamill must have gone up massively now. I can see Saints and Man Utd being happy to loan Isgrove and Fletcher out again too now they`re in the championship. I can`t see them struggling next season - mid table I should think if they don`t have to rebuild too much, a bit like Preston this season. Millwall I think would have found it hard if they`d gone up.

Super Posted May 29, 2016 Report Share Posted May 29, 2016 Feeling quite confident we'll stay up next season. Millwall have had a bad day another season in league one and a trip to the Mem coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Red Posted May 29, 2016 Report Share Posted May 29, 2016 Police forces around the country breathing a sigh of relief tonight. Millwall visiting Leeds, Cardiff, Newcastle, Brum/Villa/Wolves, Forest plus us of course, would have been interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame though, Barnsley are much more boring and further away for the majority of our support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would imagine Staffordshire police are quite glad they`re not visiting Burton again too. Although they will have all of the above to deal with instead!

Indeed not, they seem happy to give all the credit to his replacement Heckingbottom who seems universally popular. Unlike LJ, who failed to convince his many doubters during some good and some extremely bad times managing Barnsley, to the extent many fans were quite happy to see him leave for AG. Anyway, well done to Barnsley, a great day for them and there won't be too many sorry that Millwall are staying down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Barnsley fan who has been watching them since he was 7, who took over when they were improving and they then had title winning form under him, no wonder he's popular..

They're reputation seems to have faded in recent years. Maybe the dockers are just getting older and not so enthusiastic about kicking off al the time.

Well clearly it isn't the 80s anymore but for modern times, there's still a disproportionate amount of issues with Millwall. Look at yesterday when they charged into the top tier at Wembley, I can't think of another club that would do that vs a club that isn't a fierce rival.

Dastardly and Muttley Posted May 30, 2016 Report Share Posted May 30, 2016 Really disappointing from Neil Harris, when asked if he condemned the behaviour from fans he simply said, "Next question". I get that he doesn't want to antagonise his own supporters, but a simple "I haven't seen it, so it's difficult to condemn something without knowing about it" would have been a much more professional answer.

That's pretty much what he meant though, also - think of the circumstances. He's gone through a long season, all the emotional turmoil of a playoff defeat so all his hard work has been for nothing. Probably was the last thing on his mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks as if the L2 final will have a bigger attendance than L1. Does that mean that today's winner goes straight to the Championship instead of Barnsley, or have I misunderstood this attendance thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
