BUT it's a massive opportunity missed because that's the weakest playoff group in years. Clubs with the biggest parachute payments, or backing have really flopped this season, allowing Luton, Coventry and newly promoted Sunderland in. Norwich, Watford and Stoke have had shocking seasons, West Brom couldn't recover from the Steve Bruce handicap they started with, while Swansea just left it too late to start their winning run.
they’re properly punching
id say lower half of table is still a good season for them
can’t see them sniffing play offs next year but they’ve had a brilliant few years for them .0 -

Massively overachieved this season on one of the smallest budgets in the league.They’re fans having a go at coppers and coaches after - let’s not pretend some of ours wouldn’t behave in the same way. Also those slagging off the players and rowett we was similar back when curbs overachieved with us its football fans fickle lot.That being said them lot fucking it up is always great to see the cockiness at 3-1 is the good bit.
work with a millwall fan who text me “ plenty of our fans deserve this but I don’t” he’s oddly mates with a load of Charlton.And aside from match day feels no malice towards us. ( I’m of a similar view - I reserve my hate towards the cnuts in Surrey ), have done a few England aways with millwall, euro 2016 was about 50 of us in Marseille when the Russians tried having a pop.Millwall's results last couple of games was relegation form so it’s no real surprise they lost - 11 points out of a possible 30. over the course of a season with the same average would be 50 points so would of been just about safe.
on subject of the playoffs.
expect it to be a Sunderland Coventry final - which lets be honest is great for 2 clubs that looked dead a buried a few seasons back.1 -
Melrose said:No love lost for Millwall. But respect to Millwall Fan. This is not the time to gloat. It's about time we looked at ourselves as a club. What a fucking shambles we are. Just back from Fulham v Leicester (friends support them). Light years away from where we are
We don't have much to cheer because as you rightly say we are a shambles, but we'll take anything we can get right now.
Do you seriously think they wouldn't gloat if the situation was reversed?18 -

That little sod Brian Douglas did the damage.
Really enjoyed today but know how they feel.0 -
They would be gloating twice as much as we are.4

BR7_addick said:I did Blackpool away weekender with Millwall a few years back, that’s the pull of Blackpool, any excuse will do, was decent.I feel like they might just have blown it now millwall, didn’t see it coming a few weeks back. As I said in a post a while ago, no laughing from me, not whilst we are where we are, but that sad reality is that it’s the highlight of our season, that and palace not winning the fa cup again.Sigh..10

For me that has been the hi-light of the season.
Thanks for that TS.0 -

Everyone keeps saying how well Millwall are run but it’s largely down to a benefactor prepared to swallow a massive annual loss every year. Can’t remember if they strengthened in January or not, but missing out on the play offs after having so many opportunities to secure it over the last couple of months must be a big financial hit to him / them.Will be interesting to see their approach this summer5

Their last 9 games were W2 D2 L5.Absolute Charlton behaviour. Perhaps it’s a Saff London thing??5

This was remarkable. 3 up at home in 40 mins and lost.Like all teams, the damage is done along the way - I think they had 14 games without scoring..
I wonder if someone will come in for Rowett, as he has done an excellent job there on limited resources.0 -
@MillwallFan seen a bit of “rowett out” sentiment on the socials since yesterday, is this just Twitter or are the level headed in agreement here? Seems harsh to me I think you’ve got a good manager.0

Think you have had to be a Charlton fan in the Alderton Road end, to really feel the reason we fucking hate them. So I forgive those sharing a bit of a love in on here. Other than us getting promoted, them missing out like this, is fucking a fantastic end to the season.5

First time I have read this thread, come straight to the last couple of pages. What the f*** is going on? Some of you are actually appearing to feel sorry for them? Berating our own club rather than laughing at Millwall? Some of you even think that the limp-wristed bunch from Surrey are bigger rivals (we have been here before - you are wrong
). Give me strength...
A massive part of football is about rivalries, and yes, first and foremost we want our own team to be the best, but laughing at the failure (especially the manner of this failure) of "them up the road" is one of lifes great pleasures.
Get a grip Charlton fans!22 -

That was a proper collapse. Both within 90minutes and over the last 10 games of the season.
I wonder if they’ll swan dive next season from the fallout of missing the play offs? That was their shot.

They’ll do well to finish top half next year
id be happy for Rowett to stay or go to palace , reasonable enough fit for scum but don’t think he’ll be good enough for prem and I can’t see him getting top half with scum again

some hilarious banter on my phone yesterday, got plenty of Millwall mates and they got both barrels - I was fairly quiet at 3-1 I must admit.
in reverse circumstances, I'd have expected exactly the same7 -

Rowett is a top manager. Can't see a premiership club taking a punt on him though.
Can someone please change the thread title to LOL millwall bottle promotion?5 -
I don’t feel sorry for them at all. I detest them. That’s as big a part of being a Charlton fan as anything else. That aside I think they’ve done very well and are currently Punching well above their weight. They are well run and have a very good owner. Unfortunately for them I doubt this years over achieving will be a springboard for another crack next season. They’re a relatively small Championship club with a relatively small Championship budget. I doubt they’ll have any additional support from JB to push on. They are in the position where their achievements this season will attract attention from other Championship clubs. I’m sure they will lose a couple this summer and retaining Rowett might not be that easy.1
