Jed Wallace has admitted he felt the pain of Millwall failing at the final hurdle last year to Barnsley and he’ll be determined to put that right this weekend when we face Bradford City.
Meeting the side at Wembley Stadium for the League One Play Off Final, Wallace insisted he ‘felt the disappointment’ of last season despite not being involved following the expiry of his loan deal and he told the official site in his own pre game press conference that it was very much a case of ‘unfinished business’ in his eyes.
‘There’s definitely some unfinished business for me there. I missed out last year because my loan spell was up. I was on the beach listening to the Final on holiday and was really hoping that the boys could push on and get promoted.’
He went on to add.
‘I know the team are still a bit disappointed with how it ended last year but we have a chance to put that right this weekend. That’s driving me and I know it’s driving the team so hopefully we can go one better on Saturday.’
The 23 year old went on to say that obviously walking out at Wembley would be a boyhood dream come true for him, but he was confident he wouldn’t let the experience cause him to be overawed.
‘It’s the first time I’ve had the chance to play at Wembley and it’s definitely somewhere you dream of playing one day. You want to play in front of big crowds and in these high stakes games but I have to block that out and treat this like a normal match. We know we can beat anyone in this division on our day. Hopefully Saturday is one of those days.’
Vital Millwall on:
