It’s weird because I know a few black lads that go to all Millwall games and have never had any problems there.

As did one of our "supporters" at the Chelsea game, before we get too high and mighty.

You get black Trump supporters as well.

You'd be embarrassed if you were a Millwall supporter wouldn't you?

If they weren't embarrassed before..

Oh dear, that's very sad.
I was expecting it to be the odd knuckle dragger, but when you listen to the video it sounds like a very large part of the crowd.
I would now hope that organisations back the Black Lives Matter campaign even more.

Whilst I would never try and defend Millwall fans, I would like to know why they did boo.

Was it because they are racist morons or is it because they are annoyed at football being hijacked for other purposes?
For the record, I am a bit frustrated at football being used for other messages but I would never boo as I want all BLM messages to be positive.

It’s started to lose its meaning now, players are half kneeling whilst laughing and giggling with their team mates. I get it’s a symbolic gesture that will go down in football history as part of a movement but next time you can, really watch what the players do when they take a knee.

 

[Dick Swiveller]

Could see this coming a mile off. The excuses are already all over Twitter banging on about not supporting thugs who deface statues and want to defund the police. When all they are doing, as far as nearly everyone watching will see, is booing a campaign against racism. And in a lot of cases, that is probably what they are doing and just trotting out the excuse as a get out.

You can't boo in a nuanced way.

How many there? 2k? wonderful atmosphere before that diabolical show of negative support. Whats even more disturbing is the volume of booing, its not a few supporters but a fair percentage of those attending. They may not agree with the sentiment of the 'knee' but do they have to drag the club through a storm of controversy yet again?

 

[Stat Brother]

Gotta feel sorry for the club.

Out of all their fans.
They only allow 2000.
Yet they managed to find some racists.


What are the chances...






...oh.

I think we all know the answer to that one.
Millwall undoubtedly have some excellent supporters, but a large number of them have once again let the club down today.

Hardly a hijacking. I’d say the booers are racist morons. I’d be mortified if I was a (decent) Millwall fan.

I honestly don't think they think that deeply. They think they have to live up to a certain reputation. They're just c*nts.

 

[Coldeanseagull]

Are clubs doing enough to eradicate this? I'm 60 so things that were 'ok' to say back in the 70's are certainly not now. Problem is, the racists are not my age. They're young, moronic little cretins who should cost their clubs a points deduction

 

[m@goo]

As a football fan I'm pretty mortified. You don't need to be a Millwall fan to be mortified by it.

As a white human I’m mortified. You have to wonder what’s wrong with these people’s brains.

100%.

 

[lawros left foot]

No surprise to anyone who has ever taken a look at any of their message boards.
Consistently the worst postings of any support I’ve seen.

And it is the majority, not the minority.
