It's starting to look very good indeed for the men from the Den. The mercurial winger hit a humdinger to open the scoring then had a big hand in the second to reward Millwall's rel

Hammers got the better of Burton - just It needed the continuing great form of Crysencio Summerville to dig West Ham out of a hole at the Pirelli Stadium as they just about overcame their League One hosts in Saturday's FA Cup Fourth Round tie. But it needed extra-time for the east Londoners to prevail. It took until the 95th minute to make the breakthrough, with a superb strike making it six goals in seven games for the Irons' man in form. Underlining just how difficult a lu

Picture by @YTJourno A first win at Newcastle since 1934 has given a huge boost to Brentford 's growing ambition to qualify for Europe. They moved up to seventh in the Premier League table after their brilliant 3-2 victory at St James' Park which was sealed with a late strike from Dango Ouattara. Vitaly Janelt had a great game, clearing off the line before heading home an equaliser to cancel Sven Botman's opener at a corner. Igor Thiago then put the Bees ahead from the spot a

Signs of life : Picture by @capitalfootball Just when they seemed dead and buried, West Ham have suddenly sprung to life. A couple of weeks ago they lost at home to relegation rivals Nottingham Forest to plunge the club into despond. Now, a week on from a last-gasp win at Spurs they claimed a 3-1 win against Sunderland to breathe more life into their hopes of survival. A first half blitz brought goals from Crysencio Summerville, Jarrod Bowen (from the penalty spot) and Mateu

"F knows how we won that," voiced a happy Lions fan departing the Den after seeing Millwall complete a quickfire double over the Robins. A recent 1-0 win at Ashton Gate was mired in the controversy of the late spat which saw Alex Neil end up on the turf and

Post match views from Lions boss Alex Neil : Picture by @YTJourno Millwall dropped out of the play-off places but will take heart from a battling draw against third-placed Ipswich at the Den which was a fine response to successive defeats which clipped their paws. The one big issue it again threw up, however, is the modest goals return and the continuing imbalance in the goal difference. The Lions have now netted just 25 times after the first half of the league programme has

Boxing Day at the Den : Picture by @YTJourno Championship Millwall (0) 0 Ipswich Town (0) 0 It's not often the Lions get top billing in London - especially on such a traditionally significant day in the English football calendar. But with no Premier League matches taking place in the capital, this felt very much like the Boxing Day game to see. It was given added kudos too by being the sixth placed team v third in the Championship. Alas, the end product did not quite match pr

Picture: Wikimedia Commons / Adam Haworth A first win at Turf Moor since April 1951 has given Marco Silva's team vital breathing space in the battle to avoid getting sucked into a relegation campaign. Goals from Emile Smith Rowe, Calvin Bassey and Harry Wilson gave Fulham a crucial 3-2 win at Burnley and takes them to 20 points and moves them up to 13th place in the table - seven points clear of 18th placed West Ham , who occupy the third relegation place. It was a perfect s

Picture by @YTJourno Tottenham Hotspur ended a run of six home games in the Premier League without a win when they defeated Brentford 2-0 in N17 this afternoon. It comes on the back of a gutsy 2-2 draw at Newcastle United in midweek - when skipper Christian Romero scored twice and saved the day with a last minute overhead kick. This time, the plaudits went to Richarlison and Xavi Simons, who both scored in the first half. It was Simons' first goal for the club and brought b

Julien Stephan reflects on home defeat to Millwall : Picture by @YTJourno Julien Stephan says QPR need to show 'greater efficiency' to avoid deflating defeats like the one in the derby against Millwall . Rangers had plenty of the ball but did not turn it into enough big chances - having only three shots on target all game. By contrast, the Lions pounced when they got their chances and then defended resolutely to hold on. "We had some big chances in the first 20-25 minutes and
