All kicking off at Upton Park

Terrible scenes. Man stabbed

Another 30 minutes to go yet. I dread to think of the Millwall fans reaction if they lose to penalty shootout.

Silly Southerners.

No reports of violence at Elland Road. They'll be calling us 'Saintly Leeds' soon.

Re: All kicking off at Upton Park

Millwall shouldn't even be allowed to play football, their fans are out of control no matter where they go... I've just read the report on the BBC about the man getting stabbed, it's ridiculous. Is this on TV?

nope, no streams either

big time kicking off now, players have had to come off the pitch after hammers going 2-1 up and a mini pitch invasion. 'large scale' trouble outside the ground too, not exactly surprised though!

Re: All kicking off at Upton Park

I'm not surprised either, the police didn't want any millwall fans to go in the first place, the away end has already been reduced..

Shame there's no streams. I usually try and watch, guess it will be on bbc's Carling Cup highlights tomorrow night

Re: All kicking off at Upton Park

The draw was an absolute nightmare for the authorities and there were always going to be muppets, from both sides, that want to bring the 80's back.

At least when we were down in the Championship for a league game the old bill had the option of moving the game(s) to a Sunday lunchtime; no such luck for a cup tie, although I wonder why not?

Trouble in the ground as well, pitch invasions... a shame really, because the actual football atmosphere is proper electric on the radio, now 3-1 to the Irons

Re: All kicking off at Upton Park

west ham have their own thugs. In fact listening to the radio its west ham fans fighting the stewards and the police. Its west ham fans invading the pitch.
But hey, just blame Millwall .

Im a Millwall fan, and I know they have more than their fair share of idiots but west ham aint too far behind them.

Re: All kicking off at Upton Park

What are you lot going on about?? All the trouble on the pitch is West Ham fans only.... watch the TV pictures later.... Read about the FA report in a couple of days time..... Bring on the massive fines and hopefully having to play their games behind closed doors

Football fans in jumping to conclusions shocker!

It seemed to be 90% West Ham causing the trouble.

To be honest most clubs have their idiots, just seems that when our two clubs get together a bunch of blokes who haven't watched a football match in 25-30 years all of a sudden seem hellbent on bringing back the "good old days".

Shame, it's been a cracking cup tie with a great atmosphere.

Agree with the premise there but taking your nipper to Millwall at home in a cup-tie under lights... not the best game to take your kid to.

Re: All kicking off at Upton Park

IMO once the game was announced this should have been announced behind closed doors and the nearby areas policed.

I think you need to get over your Daily Mail fetish - bit sad really.

All I know is that two sets of fans with the two of the worst reputations in the country have dragged football into the gutter again.

What more is there to know?

I agree 100% mate, but why would a parent feel like that in the first place?

Parents can happily take their kids to 99% of other clubs - this needs sorting for once and for all.

Why are you commenting on matters when your facts are wrong. Look at the pictures on TV.
