    Rumours going around that we've only bought 800 tickets for tomorrow. Apparently, quite a few Millwall have bought tickets in our end. Not sure if this is 100% true. Have any of you's heard owt?

    serves west ham right for having ridiculous ticket prices for a dead rubber, also no district line so travel would be difficult.

    Wow.

    This is not something to be taken lightly, regardless of whether they belong to us or not if it kicks off it's our club that will be tarnished by it, our wonderful away fans, and our reputation.

    Hopefully it's not true, after all Millwall will be seeing the Hammers at least twice next season.

    This rumour has been around all week on other sites, so i reckon there is some element of truth in it.

    Agreed. It's a disgrace how much they're charging. I refuse to pay it.

    I also refused to pay it despite living in London, £46 to see a dead rubber with 2 teams playing poorly is a rip off

    WHU categorised this as a class A game as their premiership lives could depend on it and thus raised the ticket prices £10, thieving twats.

    Unsure as to what the logistics would be of re-imbursing the £10 extra for the 800 or so fans travelling down. Surely in this electronic age even crediting them with club shop vouchers would be a nice touch. Congrats to the hardy souls going.
    I appreciate this would be a cost to SAFC and not WHU. One of the reasons I am glad they are down.

    If they have such a good squad why are they going down? Parker good, Ba not enough time to form an opinion altho a good start, green & cole etc utter ****e. Hitzy not bad.

    West Ham fans are no saints but Milwall fans are pure thugs. I think it's good banter when you hear of the occasions when fans go into other sets of fans (the sunderland fan going down to crystal palace a few years back springs to mind) but not when the clear intent is to cause a riot!

    I would love to be down to see the cockneys in turmoil but the ticket price is mad + travel costs. Looks like the Chuckle Brothers Gold and Sullivan may have cocked up (again) in the fact that the tickets would have been snapped up by us lot and instead can go to the Milwall rabble.
