Me and my daughter normally come in on the hammersmith & city/circle line and get off at Shepards bush market,then walk to the ground,its been her first year as ST holder and dont want her to experiance anything to put her off coming next year.So wondering if there is a better route where we are less likely to encounter any possible trouble from the Millwall lot.

Central Line to White City is your best option as there isn't anything for them to do there,and they will probably go Shepherd's Bush instead.
Although I did have the misfortune to have their mob on my central line train the last time we played them in a night game.They did all get off at the bush though. [Post edited 23 Apr 2014 12:35]

Or Wood Lane possibly a quieter walk in. |  | | |

When we played them on the Tuesday night in our promotion season, they were rounded up at Wood Lane and marshalled to the ground. It was kicking off too. |  | | |

Ground is opening half hour earlier so you should be able to get there well before. I am sure you will be fine. |  |

expect police everywhere near the ground and at stations.
rumours of police "spot checks" near ground too....
one game, one team and a war zone and martial law is needed, well done the football league. they allow it.
let one director of the football league or fa attend saturday as a "fan" and see for themselves the chaos and cost of one team.. | | | |

Says on Offy that only way into Ellerslie rd for Millwall will be via Bloemfontain, does that mean we've got to walk all the way round and enter Ellerslie from LR? | | | |

How will they enforce that? Are they saying OB will round them up at the station and march them down Bloemfontein via Uxbridge Road? | |

I think they had a dry run with Watford's "mob" on Monday (ten sub-Danny Dyers nervously doing the occasional w*nker sign every now and then behind hundreds of police, plus a load of families). They got taken all the way down Uxbridge Road from the Bush roundabout and then up Bloemfontein Rd.
That was quite funny/tragic, Wall will probably be a bit different. |  | | |

I thought there was a lot of police/stewards for a Watford game. It was a joke! We walk right past the away entrance on my way into LR, never had any bother. | |

the police were only there to protect the watford,as you say i saw them and it almost impossible not to burst out laughing
they looked like brentford football club no big geezers just idiots
millwall is a bit differant whereby they will bring some serious headcases,but if the ranger with his daughter ensures he wears his colours no millwall will dare to confront him,whilst his with his daughter
you see with them its all about being hard,and attacking a qpr fan with his daughter walking through shephards bush market just aint hard
so the only flash point will be after the game after they have been slaughterd 6-0 they wont have a very good sense of humour so hang around and let them disperse
then you can go on your tube home | |

Last time the police rounded them up and marched them up Wood Lane from the green and took them into SAR. They then marched them to within about 100 yards of the ground where they held them until right before kick-off.
In short it is a bit difficult to predict what the police will do as they will not be giving away any operational clues in advance, for obvious reasons.
To the OP, I would stick to the routine you know best so that in the event of any trouble you are completely au fait with your surroundings. Have a back up route planned i.e. if if it is kicking off at SBM stay on until Wood Lane. And of course don't wear colours.
As others have said, ridiculous and depressing that we should even be discussing such things. |  | | |

Don't know - I'm not organising the police operation, just quoting the offy!  | | | |

Reading between the lines I'd hazard a guess they will have both ends of Ellerslie Rd 'policed' with ticket checking in place. | | | |

So it is good to have the Millwall mob smashing up the pubs in the bush then because it will create a good atmosphere in the ground then?
What about the landlords and the shop owners who have their property damaged?
Or the innocent people that might get caught up in it all? | | | |

remind me how much property was damaged last time they come down to LR ?
I think they had 3 times the amount that night as they will have on sat , police will be out in force smaller mob to handle yes will be trouble but sorry I don't see them charging down the uxbridge road on chariots with scythes on there wheels cutting all and sundrie down as they make there way to LR. before they launch flame throwers from there aging backsides taking out the wegerle steps and the paladini filing cabinet.
I was actually talking about atmosphere INSIDE THE GROUND by the way | |

I appreciate what you said about the atmosphere inside the ground,but the hordes have to get there first.Why should innocent people or fans going about their business be terrorised by these animals?
We also had the best noise from the away fans ive heard all season on Monday and we still only made any noise in the last 20 minutes. | | | |
