Both sides looking for that elusive win to ease the pressure. We can't keep playing well and being unlucky.

They're not on great form away from home and only pick up there first point on the road with a credible draw at Middlesboro. We're both on five points but they're goals for (three) separates us on goal difference.

This will be our 76th game against the Lillywhite's. We've won 34 - Drawn 15 and lost 26 of those games. Goals for 111- goals conceded-91

Transport links look to be without closures. Weather forecast is mild and sunny.

For some reason the one still most prominent in my mind is the 3-2 away at Chelsea in 1985. Considering our much bigger games and feats since then it for some reason is etched in my mind. Perhaps it's because it was my first big game and who our opponents were. It doesn't touch other occasions when it comes to sentimental reasons but it'll never leave me. Millwall eh!

I remember that game well 1-0 up, then Chelsea absolutely outplayed us, they went 2-1 up and stopped playing.Fash had a blinder and we went 3-2 up. They got a penalty at the end, I always thought it was never a penalty. Not to worry as Chelsea were on a run of missing from the spot, and on clue Speedy nearly hit the corner flag. John Hollins their manager applauded us after the game.

He equalised 5 not five minutes after they took the lead. Steve Lovell- fucking legend mate :bow:

Did my first away games that season. Nigels away in the previous round was my first one and then Chelsea.

I took a pal off the heygate who weren't into football hed never been,all he wanted to do was get back to the elephant and score abit of tackle. He was right at the front of the queue at the end of the game so when the big surge happened as the gates opened he got shoved straight in the Ob who nicked him He got home about 2 am . He had the right zig 🤣🤣
