Nobody asked you to come, nobody cares if you go.Boring thread: I just spent 15-20 mins reading this supposed "classic thread", yet all I have managed is a yawn or two barring a chuckle gained from one of my own.
Which one said "Man Utd are my main team " and thought Millwall were boss because they had Greg Wallace in their ranks?
Was it either of these or another one?

Did the schools just get out or something?No one's making you stay or read it so you know where the door is..
He is right-footed, then you might as well just put Walker or Trippier on the left.The changes I would make is to play KWP at left wing back in the 343 to see how he works out.
I have it on very good authority that Burnley have the most active hooligan element in the PL. which doesn't surprise me. It's a strange, strange place. Even shopping there on a Saturday afternoon (once done, never repeated) is "edgy".Hull City was a 'flag' day. It was a FA Cup 4th Round game involving a PL club, so a lot of the nationals picked up on it, especially as it was the same season as the West Ham trouble.
Millwall took 2,284 that day, including many of the 'serious' hooligans. Yes, it did get nasty. But again, no more so than the match the other night between Wolves & Birmingham City.
I don't want to sound like an apologists for the hooligans. However, I am an apologist for the club.
If Burnley played with a couple of miles of Fleet Street (and now Canary Wharf), instead miles away, it would be they with this 'scum of football' reputation, as they have been just as active as us over the years. Same with Cardiff City or Swansea City.
And while they have reputations, it is Millwall's location that has really cemented our place as number one trouble club. You may even bring up events like the Luton riot, yet that very year there was a death at a match between Birmingham City & Leeds United. At the actual match. But, because our game was beamed around the country it is us that people remember.
Success plays a part too. Or lack of. West Ham have every bit as 'interesting; hooligan past and present as us...yet, have a 'cheeky cockney' persona. The reason? A lot of reporters etc are West Ham fans. Many attracted to the club because of their 'sexy' sides of the 60s, 70s and 80s. The academy & all that nonsense.
Take Manchester United too. Their fans were a disgrace in Barcelona. On the rampage. However, they did win the most dramatic ever CL final, so that kinda stole the headlines.

Been up there twice for games.

And for smashing up one of our local boozers in 2001 you''ll feel the lions claw on Sunday not just hear our roar!
