Middlesbrough 1 2 Millwall

Used to be horrid in the 60s, only time I've been frightened at a game when they were in the Holmesdale separated by police.
Wasn’t great in 1990 when we beat them 2-1 at the old den to help relegate them when they were last in the top flight. I remember Andy Gray scoring a diving header right in front of us and the palace fans were singing ‘going down going down’ at their fans the other side of the fence.
I remember it well because I remember thinking as they were doing the slitting our throats motion at us as they streamed out of the ground to wait for us outside that this was the day I was probably going to die……..but thankfully I didn’t, we all jumped in the back of a mates pickup van parked near the ground and we was out of there 🤣
 
The result aside, what a brilliant, exciting game that was.

The reason why I watch more championship games than premier league these days.

Much more end to end, less play acting (although it seems to be seeping in) and no VAR!!!
