Goalkeepers

Malcolm Finlayson went to Wolves

Kasey Keller to Leicester

Alex Stepney to Manchester United & England

Tim Cahill to Everton

Others to Glasgow Rangers, Liverpool, Crystal Palace, Charlton, Wimbledon, Ipswich, Sunderland, West Ham etc (when in the top league!)

Unfortunately like most clubs we have a small element of bad supporters who give the club a bad name.  Though if you knew all the story you would be forgiven for believing the media has stirred up the reputation.  As with an actual match it is usually the one who retaliates who gets sent off, and much of the trouble comes from opposing supporters who want to prove they are tougher.  Mind you I do not condone any violence and crime myself.

I played with Millwall Colts as a lad of sixteen and wanted to become a professional.
