Individually of course, some Millwall fans are fine. As a bunch, there are no worse in the country. I am 100% certain they will cause some sort of unpleasant shenanigans that day. From experience, they didn't care back in the day if they hit man, woman or child. A high profile fixture for them will bring out the worst of them.

Wouldn't surprise me if the FA made this a Friday night match, thick ****s.

If we get past Gent I don't think there's any option but to make it a Sunday game.

Why anyone would want Arsenal in the final is beyond me.

We were 3-0 up in the 89th minute and Woowich scored a stone bonk offside goal in the 90+1 minute, then at 90+2 Sanchez snagged a second with a superb right hand slap plus a 90+6 minute equaliser from the penalty spot following an incident where 4 Goon players all fell into the penalty area simultaneously.

The winning goal in the 98th minute scored by Dele Alli after nutmegging 3 defenders leaving them on their arses and running round Cech.

Hardly any Woolwichers were left in the stadium as they left at 3-0

I had a myocardial infarction at 4-3 but lasted long enough to see the cup being lifted one more time and see Spurs complete the double, again.

Back in the 70s had a Millwall mate. Went to some of their games, and I was gobsmacked. It was nuts.There were old women screaming f’s and c’s. The whole support was like that. Never seen anything like it.

Went to some of their pubs, and one of their games was to throw darts at their own mates who were carrying drinks back to the table. Not just lobbing them, I mean throwing them. Fella put the tray of drinks down on the table, handed them out, I said ‘thanks”, and he then proceeded to pull darts out of his legs and arse with a wince, before he sat down, like it was a normal thing.

It's already been mentioned that the last time Spurs drew Millwall in the FA Cup we went on to win it in 1967. In the original tie at The Den it was a goalless draw played in front of over 41,000 fans. A single goal from Alan Gilzean was enough to see Millwall off in the replay at The Lane with over 58,000 in attendance. We also beat them in the early 70s on the way to winning the League Cup. It was 2-0 and absolute mayhem in the ground.

Yep-their fans started chanting "you'll never make the station" near the end

Charming bunch
Mental day, took my mum as she was a Millwall fan growing up, my great granddad drove their team bus and he used to take her on away trips, she also played for the first ever lionesses team. What a mistake that was ! Oh look a handy skip full of assorted items that can be used as weapons handily placed where the away fans come out. Thankfully got away without having to get into it with anyone, we did get showered with bottles as we legged it up to the station though. First call post draw was from her telling me im not allowed to go lol, im 36 !!

I genuinely remember watching us play Millwall in a crap cup game about a year ago.

Obviously we didn't as I've found no evidence of it online, and nobody on here can remember it.

I haven't even played FIFA for two years so it's not that.

Weird.

Maybe it was a premonition. If so, expect a dull game and a 70th minute winner from Dos Santos.

Weird you remember Dos Santos scoring a year ago considering he left in 2012...

The last ever FA cup game at the lane


No. It's the last ever cup game at the Lane with the stands as they're currently configured. There'll be another cup game at the Lane with newly arranged stands some time in 2018 or 2019.

I don't give a fudging damn about who Arsenal drew or will be facing. They can face a fudging 7-a-side team of female university students for all I care. It's only Arsenal, they and their sorry excuse for opponents are of no importance to us.

Rant over.

We have won the FA Cup more recently than we've played Millwall in a competitive game. The last time we did Gary Lineker scored the winner.

Now it would be truly Spursy to fuck up the last ever cup match at the Lane against lower league opposition when we're unbeaten there all season, but ASSUMING we do get through then I suspect we'll have the scum in the semis. I read somewhere, must have been after the 2008 LCSF draw, that when both clubs have reached the semi-finals of either the League or FA Cups then we've only been kept apart something like twice in our entire histories, which is pretty remarkable when you consider how many times we've both got there (2008, 2007, 2001, 1993 and 1991 from recent memory).

If we're still in the Europa we will have a game the Thursday before the weekend this is due to be played. It'll be on a Sunday or Monday in that case.
