Piece of piss mate, get off at South Bermondsey and walk down the away fans walkway direct to the turnstile. Couldnt be easier.

Yeah it is no problem. Just dont shout your mouth off to much on London Bridge.

London exiles meeting in the Coal Hole pub on the strand just down from Charing Cross, guest appearance by Gartom so if you've got any questions or you just fancy meeting for a pint before the game we'll be there.

Been twice had trouble once but did not come to blows. Almost everyone i've spoken to have not had a problem.However in truth a small group of Millwall fans are still bother mainly the older ones(in my experience) 40plus. As long as you keep yourself to yourself i'd say you have a 99% chance of being fine.I think I was just unlucky. If in any doubt a group of us
will be meeting in the coal hole in the strand from middayish. It's been London and South Rovers exciles meeting place for years. Don't let Millwalls reputation put you off from a good day

Re read your post as a group you will be absolutely fine.

Times have changed, sure, Dave. But I will not forget, to my dying sday, what happened at the Den in 1977 when they played Ipswich Town in a Cup quarter final. I've not been there since. And I'm never going to.
It made every, every, other club look like pussies. Even the police ran away. I saw 'em do it. I just ain't going there again.

You can tell sometimes when someone is sizeing you up which is what happened to me on the occasion I had bother. I travel in colours. always have. Apart from this i keep myself to myself.Sometimes I travel in company sometimes on my own depending on what others are up to. I'm 6 ft and was about 14 1/5 stone at time(wish that was still the case as im 16 stone now) decent build. This 40 something 6ft2 (at least) skin head with tattoo's on back of his head and neck started telling me whilst I was sat down on train what he was going to do to me sexually in quite some detail. I remember thinking I'm going to have to give him whatfor here but before i did a quick headcount and realised he had 9 mates (who to be fair were not giving too much grief)Now the problem is I'm not a ten man team. I'd have given mouthy and at least one of his mates a good whack but kept my mouth shut and thankfully didn't quite come to anything.He was just a mouth and in sizeing me up he'd decided against it incase his mates didn't back him up. I would have been very worried had I been 9 stone. The other thing is i'm a teacher.I would have without doubt been suspended if i'd have got out of hospital alive.

Crikey Dave to be honest I'm surprised you get out of some of the schools alive down that way :laugh: having for my sins lived for quite some time in Norbury, well technically Thornton Heath up near the pond
