Can anyone explain to me why Millwall have a bad reputation please ?

I know they have one , I am genuinely interested to know WHY ?

Where would you like to start...West Ham...Luton...for me it stems back to childhood with Wall being on my doorstep. Pitch invasions, taking over the home end and kicking shhite out of anyone that got in the way.
 
Just switched over. A FA cup quarter final in a winnable game and there are empty seats everywhere, whats up with that?

Where do you want to start? F Troop, who had the charming habit of wearing surgical masks on the terraces (70’s)? Pitched battles everywhere they went (The Warrens pub in Soton, on Poundtree Rd)? Demolishing Luton’s ground and using seats as missiles to throw at the police. Smashing up their own town after losing in the playoffs to Birmingham?

Mate, it goes on and on. Last time I went to the Den, in 2003, a bunch of them tried to square up to me, my then 70 year old dad, and my 12 year old son. Maybe they’ve changed since then. Maybe not.

Will be the Brighton fans, can't be sure of the reasons, but at guess many a Brighton fan would not fancy travelling to the Den.

I’m sure plenty would but the police wouldn’t have allowed that lower tier to be occupied. It hardly ever is. Brighton can travel in decent numbers and it’s no distance to South London.
