    I'm WEST HAM & respect millwall for what they did for that poor little girl 👏👏👏 if i wasn't an hammer they would of been my club by choice because of the numerous similarities, both dockers & an East End club originally based in isle of Dogs,were proper working class fans, a bit rougher & tougher than your other London clubs, the fans are exactly the same, bit like 2 twin brothers that although respect eachother just don't get on & will always fight 🇬🇧⚒

      My mate went up to him while there and eulogized over his England Captaincy and winning THe World Cup and was full of praise for Mooro and once he finished his monologue,the great Bobby turned to him and said " xxxk Off, I'm with my mates!"....A Treasured memory of the great Man:)

    A lifelong West Ham supporter here. The Wigan relegation match was the penultimate match of the season, which had effectively relegated us. The last match of the season was at home to Sunderland, which we went on to lose 3-0. Personally, I’m pretty ambivalent towards Millwall and have no animosity towards them. The team I dislike the most is definitely Tottenham and always have done. All the best and I hope you achieve promotion at the end of this season.

    There is alot more to the rivalry than just football. Alot of Millwall and West Ham supporters worked in the docks and shipbuilding yards and them workers all went on general strike in 1926 against the government due to pay and working conditions. Millwall supporting workers refused to lend their support and returned to work rather than stick it out which provoked mass outrage and violence. So its also a rivalry based on the economic situation of the time and the impact it had on the workers back then to provide adequately for their families which was stopped by Millwall supporters.

    Good Video though it was not emphasized that Millwall's 4th move was to leave East London altogether and move to SOUTH East London. It said "New Cross" but did not say where that was. Also, it was THe DOCKERS dispute early in the 20th Century that really caused the animosity as one set went on strike while the others continued to work.One last thing. That "AVRAM GRANT" banner was brilliant but it was not explained who he was. He was THe , existing,West Ham Manager who got them relegated:)

      That what I was told by a Millwall fan. The Dockers from The Surrey and West India Dock were Millwall (Rotherhide and Isle of Dogs) and Dockers from Royal Docks in Newham were West Ham. Not sure which is which, but one side supported the 1926 strike and another didnt and it caused some bad feeling between the two.
