This time, though, we are really deep down at the bottom.
But, like Bolton last season, we have 2 games in hand.
Bolton won a lot of games so had a fair chance of closing the gap.
We, however, have won just 2 games out of 15.
Tonight we had a chance to start winning again.
The police had different ideas so stopped the game.
All because Millwall couldn’t get a train home if the game went ahead.
Yet I’ve been to dozens of away midweek games and there’s no train home at the end.
Unless you play local teams like Bournemouth or Brighton it won”t be possible.
A really pathetic excuse by the Old Bill.
I suspect a hidden motive. More overtime, maybe?

The only thing that's hanging around the bottom is Gary Action.

I kind of respect the amount of time BlueView must have spent typing that nonsense. No shooting their load like Titchy usually does. Nice.

He must have a blister on his finger the size of his brain. WAC.

Thank you for that.
Here’s another scenario-
If that was a cup game, and it went to extra time and penalties, then with an 8:00 kick off, it would finish about 10:30, which would have been the same time as if they started the game at 8:30 on Wednesday.
Would the police have stopped the cup game at 1-1  after 90 minutes?
Are they assuming every Millwall supporter hasn’t the ability to leave the game early to catch their train?

But it wasn’t a cup game. It was a league game with no extra time and scheduled to finish well before the Millwall train was due to leave.

"All rounds of the Emirates FA Cup will also be played on weekends, including the fifth round which has been played in midweek for the past five seasons".

I think it was less about police worrying about fans being unable to get trains out of the city, and more about that particular set of fans not leaving the city quick enough.
