£10 well spent. Excellent, made a refreshing change to what I’ve witnessed in the last few years against lower division teams, Accy and Burton spring to mind.

Re: Millwall game - stream

£10 well spent. No problem here in rural N Yorks.
Let’s hope the EFL use the profits in supporting the lower division clubs.

Re: Really enjoyed that and so encouraging.

Excellent but don’t forget it was “only Millwall” 😉😉.
Seriously must have been one of the best performances against a lower division side for ages. About time we showed our class.
The young ones did well

Re: ARTICLE: Burnley held at Boothferry Park

if I remember right, we were escorted the couple of miles from Paragon station to Boothferry Park. Stopped by the coppers from breaking away from the escort to go to a boozer and returned on a train as there was a stop right outside the stadium.
