God I'm bored. Bickering with Miwaw fans on a Saturday night. It's the last time the missus goes out (bloody Take That)and leaves me looking after the kids. I'm off to play Poker. Good night all. In the words of a Leeds United Legend its been emotional.
We refused to join the Football League (political reasons) and were co-founders of The Southern League (with Arsenal, Southampton, Spurs, QPR amongst others) and did not enter the Official football League until 1920. With regard to European Competitions - they did not start until 1955!!
Who said it didn't count? The Southern League were pulling in bigger crowds than the Football League - In fact, Millwall were the 4th best supported team in the country at the time - we are the true sleeping giant!!
So after what is it 200 years or so playing football. and how many times have you been champions of England,or Fa cup winners or European trophy winners. I'LL give you a while to count them up. I'll come back tomorrow as it may take you a while.
