The Millwall Post

From our football correspondent Crisis

The dugout

Malick Yalcouyé says Millwall went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Match

The wait goes on for Millwall

4 without a win now, and the ground has developed the special quiet of a crowd that expects the worst. One scrappy 1-0 would cure most of it; that is the maddening part.

Boardroom

Graduation day at Millwall

5 boys move up, and somewhere in the building the people who coached them at twelve are quietly having the best morning of their working year. Nothing about this shows up in a result and it is why the academy exists.

Match

The run at home goes on for Millwall

9 matches unbeaten here. Every visiting manager is asked about it in the week before, which is precisely why it keeps going.

Match

3 matches without a goal for Millwall

The chances are being made and something is happening between the making and the finishing. 3 matches now, and the anxiety in the ground arrives a little earlier every week.

Transfer targets

Millwall rebuffed over André Silva

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Porto have kept their man, and Millwall go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Match

Millwall come up short against Leicester City

Leicester City left with the points after a 0‑2 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

The dugout

The manager makes an example of Lukas Jensen

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Market

Millwall promote Stephen Evans from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Stephen Evans has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

In brief
