We are making sure people dont go over the line and that its an environment where people can enjoy the game, celebrate football and do it properly.Its important to us to try and rid this image.Myself and my staff, weve all been affected by this. It felt awful and it was a terrible situation.Weve been hurt by it and thats made us extra empowered to go and change whats happening and try and improve this for everyone.We dont want this, were hurt by it and its not what Millwall want as a football club.
