Your favourite decade following wall

Peckham, I know we've met and I know our paths have crossed.

Definitely mate. We'd have been in many a turn out together. Like you I know faces rather than names. It's why I just call everyone e mate cause I don't want to offend. I have known and still do know many just to nod at or a quick hello but have never actually had a conversation with them.


Always sat in block one and two. I was ill a while back and missed a whole season. On my return I had strangers come up to me to say hello and ask if where I've been. I had no idea who half of them were but they knew me.

(you very kindly sorted the Brighton FA cup tickets for me and the boy

Mate, I have no recollection of that at all but dont doubt it cause I've sorted countless amounts of tickets for Millwall bods down the years.

Next time you see me come and say hello mate!!!

Allegedly, Benny made offers for Kevin Keegan (

It's true but it wasn't enough or what Millwall could afford at the time. I think the asking price was around £5k.

BTW I am one of the sad old gits who have done the "92" completed first in 2014.

Nothing sad about that fella. Its some achievement.

Could have been one of Peckham's quiz questions.

I'd need to know the answer before that could happen

I do like the quizzes. Keep up the good work.

So do I. I can never tire of reading about and learning Millwall history. I think everything has been answered now so I'll post up a few more teasers shortly.

Thanks Rother. Look at Brian Snowdon's knees. All bashed about a bit.
I love those old team photo's.

You're welcome EDT. My best years in following the 'Wall came from when I started work in 1963 to 1967. One relegation and two promotions. Magic!

It's Hereford United FA Cup 2nd rd December 1965. I was there, lost 1-0

Good one and thanks for the info and clarification.

Selfishly it was the 80’s for me personally. But, for me and my son it was the mid 90’s and throughout the 2000’s as we went home and away and created a fantastic bond

80s for me, we went from being one game away from being relegated to the old fourth division to the top flight. There wasn't a lot of us travelling to games certainly in the early part of the 80s and every away game without fail was an adventure.
