The bits I know is that we only have to pay for the police in the ground, any outside the ground are not paid for.  Obviously our fantastic stewards work for nowt but the same will not be said of any other clubs stewards if we have got them in.

I reckon our saving grace is the MOTD money which will probably cover additonal costs.  Worth noting though that the gate is split after all these costs so in a way Millwall do have to pay half of them.

Its all necessary costs of course though to ensure a safe day for all. 

What saddens me is that the club have spent this money to do there best to make it safe and then police have paniced all the pubs, tesco's have paniced, our floating fans with kids have been put off, probably some floating Millwall fans will not want to be herded around like animals. 

And then in case anyone hadn't been paniced so far, the Messenger sticks it on the front page.

Panic on the streets of Altrincham!

Panic on the streets of Altrincham!

...Timperley, Bowdon, Hale Barns.
I wonder to myself.

Burn down the Golf Road.

An absolute disgrace and no help what so ever for us. Surely the local rag should be supporting our big day instead of scaremongering. Its bad enough that its going to be extreemly hard to get a drink before the match.

Im worried about the ticket sales too. depending on millwall, weve only flogged 1500 tickets. Darlington was 3302.
Against northwich and aldershot we hit over 2000. Maybe the all ticket hasnt really sunk in yet - there may be many unhappy fans before the game


There seems also to be a lot less commotion, press and general interest in the FA cup this year.

regarding the messenger. I've just read the article on the front. It tells you too turn to page seven to continue reading the article and theres nothing on page 7. Its on page 5. TINPOT!!

Do you know what will make all this worse.....I bet Tesco's will open.

My Mum rang me last night to check I'll be OK on Saturday as "they are shutting Tescos' according to the paper, they must be bad supporters"

All the work that Connor Murphy has put into the back pages has been made pointless by the front page.

Of course they will Mark, they are profit mad,  Even when we had the flash flooding down here in July  New Malden Tesco remained open with half the car park flooded and 4" of water sloshing around some of the aisles!
