Silly Americans check out some English football, Millwall FC.

Don't hate Pompey, respect yes.

@@Mute040404thanks

Don’t hate pompey love going to fratton always look out for your results need you back in the championship lively

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it.

We are Millwall, from the Den!

They all get on well when they all move out to Australia, as people learn to put that BS aside and focus on having a good time, with the focus being things they have in common, rather than the things that divide. I grew up playing football with guys from just about every major city in the UK and they were all great characters. Lots of jokes before training and afterwards in the bar. The town and the team was everybody''s new family. We'd all spend many hours chatting about the prospects of our respective clubs back in the UK and everyone would have a lot of great stories from back home, like my mate from Leeds who hired a mini bus to watch an away game at Millwall in the 80's. It had been turned over when they finally got to it, after security wouldn't let them leave the stadium for an hour to protect their safety. To be honest, I wasn't sure what to expect this experience would be like, given my main recollection of the club is from stories and movies from these times when there was trouble on the terraces. I was actually impressed with the stadium and know the club has produced some decent players like Teddy Sheringham and Tim Cahill over the years. Best of luck in chasing promotion - never thought I'd see Millwall possibly in the EPL!

Thank you! We are Millwall from the Den!

Nice! Glad to hear of more and more American fans.

@@richardartzberger9737 will definitely check it out, thanks.

Happy to hear I'm not the only Millwall fan in Houston 👍🏻 COYL!!🦁🦁

Love all of the ridiculous but funny chants

@@stelbotadventures Yeah it is very funny, we have a dark but witty sense of humour.

Thank you! Yes, I'm a Millwall fan for life now.

@@stelbotadventures Our chairman's American too. And a gentleman. The Den could become the second American embassy. 🙂

@@stelbotadventures You dodged a bullet with Chelsea FC's match ticket prices and inaccessibility - You really wouldn't want to have been stuck with that lot.

@@apathyintheuk265 we thoroughly enjoyed our Millwall experience! Looking forward to visiting The Den again.

​@@alangood8190RIP JB

Palarse the dros of South London, BHAFC.

Wow, that's impressive!

Thank you. Definitely check them out if you go to London. So much fun!

Not yet, but I watch the matches whenever I can!

@@stelbotadventures Choosing to support a club like Millwall will earn you respect from British football supporters. All too often visitors from abroad choose to support the bigger clubs like Chelsea, Manchester United, Liverpool. In my experience Millwall fans are a passionate bunch who know their football.

Seems a shame that other clubs with even bigger fanbases never match the atmosphere at Millwall.

MIILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

What is the woke agenda please.

@@rootchiller Look at people like Gary Lineker who thinks it's fine to flood the country with unvetted illegal immigrants! To the political correctness brigade were freedom of speech is dead ect. This is the looney lefts outlook. Reform UK 🇬🇧

Do Millwall still sing about career criminal Harry Roberts?

@@suffern63 Not while I was there no! Anyway while the rest of the snowflake brigade got on their knees why dosen't the same people take a knee for Lee Rigby? Nah never mentioned and it's blindingly obviously why!

Woke agenda? Please explain in the context of football, or any context for that matter.

Thank you, sir!

Thanks. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

@@stelbotadventures , glad to hear you enjoyed yourselves , those chants etc are common at matches and can be very funny ( look on RU-vid English football chants ) , at least you didn't have to listen to that chant " I believe we will win " 😂😂 , come again soon.

We have been telling our friends into European football about the Lions

Thanks!

@@stelbotadventures That was a great Vlog, my friends. I am in my 7th decade of attending with my first game being 3/9/62 which in your format of "Month/Day/Year) is 9/3/62. lol There are only 4 games left and Millwall are at home on Tuesday Night and THEN the atmosphere, under floodlights is electric as opposed to a sunny afternoon. :) I used to live 2 miles from the ground but like most fans,I moved to The Outer London Suburbs to be on the edge of London and The English Countryside.I moved exactly 40 years ago in 1983.. I visited 84 Stadiums from the furthest North to the furthest West in following them.Good Luck and come back soon Guys:)

Virually every club in Britain has root in the 1800s, it is not really unusual old chap

I think every single club has got 'fans in all corners of the earth' especially top two divisions, from TV exposure but also, of course extended family or emigrants around the world.

Excellent, mate!

All bark & no bite. You’re welcome to come up to Leeds. It’s a bit like going to Millwall, just on a much bigger scale.

@@martingetliffe I'm a Leeds supporter in America and someday I hope to do just that! MOT

Fate led us to the Den! 🦁

Your funny

Trouble in football goes back to the 1880s- prevalent in the NW and Midllands derby games. Millwall were certainly not the "original"- embarrassing

Ooh, NZ is on my bucket list!

We definitely didn't understand all of it at first!

What is it close to? Scotland is on our list!

@@stelbotadventures Aberdeen is near Balmoral Castle in North east Scotland, where the Queen passed away. I would also advise Edinburgh in Cental Scotland which is also a beautiful place to visit with many museums, history, royal castles, beautiful old streets and the Scottish national rugby stadium and the football clubs Hearts and Hibs. But Aberdeen is also nice. But Edinburgh is more famous for tourists.

Next time we come across the pond!

In the US, any fan can sit anywhere, with enough money. College sports tend to have student sections, so those fans are in a group. However, most fans are intermingled. And yes, fights do break out at times.

You don't get many away fans at NFL games due to the size of the country.

Billy Dreamer

It was invigorating. We are trying to plan a trip back across the pond to see another game.

@@stelbotadventures i hear ya. The wife and I are also. My family is originally from leyton E10 we seen the orient play mansfield. The lower league club stadiums are great

As we have since learned. Thanks, mate!

Thanks! It's been a learning curve.

@@stelbotadventures , a ground, not a stadium , the list is endless , Great vid

@@Battismore-Blue thanks. Still learning all of the correct lingo!

I guess so! Interesting history of Millwall and English football in general.

@@stelbotadventures They've all interesting history . . .many clubs now are the result of amalgamations between other clubs, maybe 100 years ago . . .and they mostly played all kinds of sports or activities and where social clubs. Norwich is the regional local team where I grew up . . .I guess Millwall and Norwich are two clubs that have not sold their soul totally to commercialisation. Norwich known as a family club, there was an outcry when they made the error of using a betting firm as a sponsor and had to change it back due protest.

@@stelbotadventures Indeed, well and Scottish of course . . or Welsh . . . or even Irish . . .well, in Ireland they also play their own 'Gaelic Football' or Irish Rules Football ( which looks a bit like Rugby ) as well as 'Football' football. Before the FA was founded in the 1860s that standardised football, there were many regional versions that were sometimes a mi of football and rugby. It was like that in Norfolk, or the east in general, where they played a version, hence the first 'Association Football' rules football clubs where not founded there until the 1880s, as they played their own style locally. So the founding dates are just based on clubs using FA standard rules. Though there were clubs before, often combining all sorts and activities. Many clubs dropped the other sports over time, or they became totally separate clubs - but you still see it in the names. Eg: AFC is still common ( Athletic & Football Club ) Fun fact: AC Milan was founded by English immigrants to Italy - even clubs in South America were founded this way.

@@stelbotadventures Another 'fun fact' for you: the famous 'Arsenal' are named as such, as they were founded by the gun battalion of an army barracks in north London. Tottenham was founded by the Jewish community in North London. There's similar stories for every club, founded by local community workers, or families and so forth. It is a shame many think, that the commercialisation of the last 15 - 20 years, has radically altered some of that connection, with stadium corporate sponsorship and billionaire levels of money that detatch from the fans - that is why lower league even non league, is getting more popular again. So, choosing a Millwall over a Chelsea, is definitely more rooted

​@@ramadamming8498 Arsenal were a South London side and Millwall were founded in East London.

Yup! We learned that!

Perhaps next time!

😁 yeah!

Love it
