Millwall 2 - 2 Wolves: The Verdict Thread

This seems appropriate, not footage from today's game. I can't believe there are people who teach this to kids

Glad to hear the fluid front three created chances in the first half. I'd like to think this could be our way forward, as well as Leo has played.

A point isn't a disaster (especially given Cardiff lost), but it'd be nice to win having been ahead. Apparently we've not won when we've gone behind in a game? Probably just a marker of how few times we've gone behind?

Hope Boly and Cav are fit for the next one.

We've only gone behind in the following:

Cardiff
Bristol City
Sheff Utd
QPR
Millwall

5 out of 24 (plus the four cup games, where we never even conceded a goal)

I think Kate has finally realised now, to be fair. Hopefully anyway. Lots of Millwall fans varying from 'it didn't happen, you've all made it up' to 'so what?' or even 'it's not just us'. Says a lot too.

Let's be honest, Millwall fans aren't the brightest. Remember Stuwall, the season ticket holder who couldn't understand why his regular seat wasn't available to buy tickets for....

Or the guy who charged at the knife wielding terrorists saying "F*** OFF, I'M MILLWALL!"

Not sure what point you’re making but he seems to add weight to the stereotype...

Looks like the club want to take it further if there's evidence.

I appreciate that most people who joined in with that chant wouldn't have understood the Roots reference which I'm assuming they were getting at and probably thought it was just a random bizarre chant, but the person(s) who started it would have done and I hope they throw the book at them.

 

[Alan]

What exactly was the chant?

 

[YoungWolf]

"He's only here for the chicken"

And also appears there were monkey chants and Saiss was called a 'terrorist muzzer'.

I was replying, adding another story to what Dublin Drummer said, so I meant to add weight.

I didn't realize the chicken stereotype existed over there.

On the stream, couldn’t make out any words from any Millwall chants, but there was persistent and clear jeering/whistling whenever Boly had the ball.

 

[PuntsWolf]

The terrorist one and the chicken one happened 100%. First right at the start, second right at the end. I didn’t have a clue what the terrorist chant was all about, who it was directed at or what it meant, assumed it might have been a Chant about one of their players. I assumed the chicken chant was directed at Alf and assumed it was racial

 

[slink]

I would say i'm amazed that Millwall fans are trying to brush off the racist chanting but i'm not. It's either we've made it up because we don't like drawing against Millwall or singing a song that clearly was aimed at Alf because he's black is because he's fat. Never heard any club sing he's here for the chicken too any player before because he's fat and never will again i'm sure of that.

On top of that they booed Boly from the start but that was apparently because he kept going down which is bullshit and they booed Alf as soon as soon as he came on. Not sure why you would boo those 2 players when they hadn't done anything unless it was racism. There were several other chants too that possibly could have been racist but i couldn't 100% understand what was being chanted.

Obviously not all Millwall fans are racist but it can't help when nearly every single one of them are trying to discredit us Wolves fans that were there by saying it didn't happen or not understanding why the chicken chant is racist because of the stereotyping. 2017 and we still have the problem and it's not just Millwall, i've heard racist comments from Wolves games and it's just not on.

Morgan Gibbs-White and Niall Ennis were apparently abused while they were watching the game from the stands in their Wolves training gear as well.

Monkey noises are bang out of order if that happened action should be taken, same with anything to do with terrorism.

I never have found the fried chicken thing offensive, I know where it comes from but I don't see it as being any more derogatory than the stereotypical assumption that white people can't take their weed....I think people need to toughen up on that front.

What you do or don't find racist is pretty irrelevant really. Luckily it's not the 'Siggy Test' that decides whether people should "toughen up" or not.

A black man ran on a football pitch to a chant that was purely driven by the colour of his skin, therefore it is racist.

If you are referring to the chicken chant his like or dislike for fried chicken is not derogatory in any way, therefore he should toughen up. If he ran on the pitch because of monkey noises then bloody right its racist.

its a bit like me running on the pitch due to a chant from Asians that we love curry....bit silly if you ask me.

 

[Trips]

You're missing the point Siggy, the chicken chant was aimed at him because of the colour of skin. No other reason. It wasn't because he liked fried chicken.
