A decent cup tie in horrible conditions but it's been marred by violence all afternoon.
Millwall got it back to 2-2 with a handball goal but let's hope there's no replay.

A video on twitter of fighting then a Millwall fan jumps over a little wall and slashes an Everton fan right accross the face.

Not a handball. Commentators wittering on about it even when they're watching the replay when it's visible that he only moved his arm after the ball hit it.

Certainly handball. And the clown of a Lino that didn't see it was the same one that wrongly gave Wood offside last week.

You can't score a goal that touches someone's hand last.

I'm pretty sure that if it's not intentional then according to the laws of the game you can. We saw in the world cup though that referees interpreted the rule in that any goal scored or prevented with an unintentional handball is handball, and that should probably be the case.

3-2. I don't like Milwall but that's hilarious. I think Silva will have a cry.

Not true. IFAB are looking at this but current law stands. The Premier League are bending the laws (not to IFAB's pleasure) with their stance. That is a PL interpretation as I understand it so not sure it applies in the FA Cup. Which is what happens if you start messing about with interpretation instead of just playing to the laws.

Everton seem to spend a fortune year on year and never get any better.

Goalkeeper and defence are terrible.

Good. Scousers lose.

Now that's what the cup is all about, not that sh!te this afternoon.

Police will be glad it didn’t go to a replay after the events pre match.

You were watching Donny v Oldham as well.Magic has long gone .

Harsh, Harsh, Harsh on Everton

We made Everton look like world beaters on Boxing Day. Every time I've seen them this season other than that they've looked really poor.

Gonna kick off big style now

A right old school tear up before the match, millwall certainly don’t change

Burnley have had a good few run ins over the years down there.

Madness to allow a game like this to kick off early evening giving everyone all day to get ****** up and knock the shite out of one another

Took a lass on a first date to watch us play Millwall away. It was very tasty outside ground and round London Bridge. We got nowt that day and I got nowt that night either.... Funny that.

Certainly looked like Everton were giving as good as they got in the videos I saw. Typical Cockneys having to resort to using knives.

Pickford,be prepared Heaton is about to take your No1 spot in the England team,can't believe how crap Pickford is 30 million

It seems there's about 7 different videos of the slasher in action and it happened right in front of a copper filming.
Should be getting a 6 o clock knock sometime soon.

If you don’t love that sort of game with all the associated aggro then what is it exactly that you like about football?

Glad I'm not the only one who thinks Pickford is massively overrated.

This is the last I can find on the situation.

That was a proper scrap. Millwall really dont give a ****. Its amazing how even today they are so mental. Literally pretty much everyone who follows them is a complete nutter.

And the guy with the kinfe should rightly be expecting a very long time. Especially with it being football related.

What if it was tennis related?

Then they would lock him up with Sir Cliff and he would need new balls afterwards

Was there trouble after the game as well?

Sorry the point is the police come down heavier on football fans than anything else when put in context.

Thank God them scummy fans n club are not in the premier league, they are a disgusting bunch of animals n belong back in the 80s!

Everton fans were kept in for 45 minutes. Not leaving much time to get the last train back oop north.

Everton fans not looking like they were totally innocent in it all judging by the videos.

Millwall turned up at the pub Everton was drinking in. Everton got the better off them. Millwall clearly backing off. Cun7 with the blade deserves everything he gets.

Odd place to choose to go for a drink.

Looks like an estate on the video unless the pub was nearby.

Pubs usually are

No doubt at all. But still a disgrace that this happened.

Not condoning it either but if I was looking for a pre match pint at Millwall I wouldn’t be choosing a pub inside a Bermondsey council estate.

The carpenters arms at west ham was as welcoming a pub ive been in. Bit rough round the edges like but...

The fight happened at Surrey quays station I believe as Everton came out

Dont understand why anyone would bother in this day and age.

Especially as all that seems to happen is all of their mates film it and send it to everyone and drop em in it anyway!

It looks like the Everton chaps got off the tube somewhat en mass at Surrey Quays, so were hardly keeping a low profile and were possibly even trying to make a statement of sorts. I think on the video you can see the guy who gets slashed very much at the forefront and actually going at another chap trading punches before he reels away and falls down holding his face. Most people who have followed football long enough will have had occasion to visit Millwall and would know that it needs a bit of forethought and sensible management!! Having said that nobody in our society should be carrying knives or blades around and there's someone there who could even have been facing a murder charge if things had panned out differently because he's taken a conscious decision to go out carrying it. And all over a footy match. Plain bonkers!

Everton clearly gone down there looking for it. Piled out of the train station and ended up in what was probably a pre arranged meet with the Millwall lot. Not that it excuses the lad getting slashed, real cowards trick.

Lot of history between the 2, when the draw came out the Everton boards were flooded in minutes with Millwall 'faces' extending a welcome.

My thoughts exactly!

Some nasty vidoes on social media.

However some are just plain stupid, one being 2 "lads" chanting "we F***ing hate millwall" whilst hordes of what i presume millwall fans walk past, until 1 man takes exception and whacks him straight in the mush knocking him out/over.

Just plain stupid.
