🦁 MILLWALL vs WEST HAM UNITED ⚒️

After more than 14 YEARS apart, one of English football’s fiercest rivalries is finally back.

This isn’t just another Saturday lunchtime fixture. It’s a rivalry stretching back more than a century, the 100th competitive meeting between the two clubs - and the first time they’ve faced each other competitively since 2012.

📅 Saturday 19th September
⚽ Kick-off 12:30pm
🖥️ LIVE across our big screens

For a game this big, you don’t want to be watching it at home. Get down early, grab your spot and settle in for what promises to be an absolute cracker. 🔥

14 years of waiting. 90 minutes to settle it.
