Rivalry between two English football teams.
The
rivalry between Leeds United and Millwall
is a bitter
North?South divide
rivalry
in
English football
.
[4]
Millwall
were founded in
London
in 1885 and
Leeds United
in
Yorkshire
in 1919, over 170 miles (270 km) apart.
[6]
Both sides entered
the Football League
in
1920?21 season
, albeit in different divisions. From 1920 to 2003 the sides met just 12 times; competing in different tiers for the majority of their histories, and neither considering the other a rival on the pitch. From 2004 to 2020, the teams met 28 times when Leeds were relegated from the
Premier League
.
[1]
The rivalry began in
League One
during the
2007?08 season
, with disorder and violent clashes between both sets of fans and the police at
Elland Road
.
[7]
It continued into the
2008?09 season
; where the teams were
vying for promotion
to the
Championship
, culminating in Millwall knocking Leeds out of the
League One playoffs
at the
semi-final stage
.
[8]
The rivalry between the teams is intensified by both clubs' passionate fans and association with
football hooliganism
.
[10]
The clubs' two
hooligan firms
; the
Leeds United Service Crew
and the
Millwall Bushwackers
were notorious in the 1970s and 80s for their violence, being called "dirty Leeds" and "the scourge of football" respectively.
[10]
[11]
Leeds and Millwall are two of the most hated clubs in
British football
, with supporters of other teams still attaching a stigma of trouble to the clubs and their fans.
[11]
[12]
As a result of fighting and disorder between supporters in 2007, kick-off times in future fixtures between the sides were made earlier and matches heavily policed at
The Den
by the
Metropolitan Police
and at Elland Road by the
West Yorkshire Police
.
[13]
[14]
An 'anti-hooligan operation' was introduced by West Yorkshire Police in 2010 for Millwall fans to exchange vouchers for tickets at
Woolley Edge service station
, severely limiting the number of supporters attending away games at Elland Road.
[15]
[16]
[17]
According to a survey conducted during the
2012?13 season
, Leeds fans consider Millwall to be their joint-third biggest rival along with
West Yorkshire
side
Huddersfield Town
.
[18]
Millwall's
main rival
is fellow
London
club
West Ham United
.
The clubs have played each other 42 times and are evenly matched. Leeds have won 19, Millwall have won 18, with five games drawn and both sides being dominant at home. As of the
2023?24 season
, both teams play in the
Championship
. The clubs have competed in different divisions for the best part of their 97 seasons in the Football League, and have spent just nineteen seasons together in the same tier.
History of the rivalry
[
edit
]
Founding of the clubs and entering the Football League: 1885?1930
[
edit
]
Millwall
was formed in 1885 on the
Isle of Dogs
in the
East End
of
London
.
They were founding members of the
Southern League
in 1894; which they competed in for 22 seasons, claiming the title twice.
Millwall relocated
south
of the
River Thames
to a new stadium in
New Cross
in 1910.
In 1919,
Leeds United
was formed out of the demise of
Leeds City
, which was expelled from
the Football League
for financial irregularities.
[6]
Based in
West Yorkshire
; United they played in the
Midland League
for one season, before both Millwall and Leeds joined the Football League in
1920?21 season
.
Leeds were elected to the
Second Division
and Millwall were invited to join the newly created
Third Division
.
Leeds spent their first few years in the Football League
yo-yoing
between the First and Second Division, they were promoted to the First in
1923?24
and
1927?28 seasons
and relegated to the Second Division in
1926?27
and
1930?31 seasons
. Millwall spent eight seasons in the Third tier, before being promoted to the Second as Champions in the 1927?28 season.
Different leagues (12 meetings in 72 years): 1931?2003
[
edit
]
Leeds were relegated from the First to the Second Division in the 1930?31 season, joining Millwall in the same tier for the first time.
The clubs met for their first competitive fixture on 7 September 1931, where 9,000 fans saw Millwall win 1?0 at
Elland Road
with a goal from
Jimmy Poxton
.
Leeds won the return fixture at
The Den
a week later 3?2.
The sides didn't meet again until after
World War II
in the
1947?48 season
.
Leeds won 2?1 at Elland Road and the teams drew 1?1 at the Den.
It was 37 years before the teams would play another game, with both sides competing in different leagues in the 1950s, 60s and 70s.
The teams were both in the Second Division for the
1985?86
,
1986?87
and
1987?88 seasons
.
On 9 November 1985, Millwall won 3?1 at The Den and Leeds won the return match at Elland Road in April 1986 by the same score.
Teddy Sheringham
scored the only goal in a 1?0 win at The Den for Millwall the following season, and
Andy Ritchie
and
Ian Baird
scored the goals in a 2?0 win for Leeds at Elland Road.
[30]
In the 1987?88 season; Millwall were promoted as Champions to the First Division for the first time in their history and enjoyed their best run of form against Leeds, winning the next four games.
On 14 November 1987,
Tony Cascarino
scored a
hat-trick
in a 3?1 win at The Den and
Terry Hurlock
and Cascarino scored the goals a 2?1 win at Elland Road, the first League double in the fixture.
The teams also played two games in the
Full Members' Cup
in 1987 and 1988 at The Den, both 2?0 wins for Millwall.
[1]
Tony Cascarino scored his fifth goal against Leeds in the 2?0 cup win on 29 November 1988, and in doing so became the record goalscorer in the fixture.
Rising hostilities and League One promotion battles: 2004?2010
[
edit

"There is always a bit of added excitement when we play Leeds United. They are a massive club with a great tradition, and our rivalry dates back to some epic encounters we had with them in League One as we both endeavoured to win promotion to the Championship."
?
John Berylson
, Millwall chairman (15 November 2012)
[33]
Leeds were relegated from the
Premier League
to
the Championship
in
2003?04 season
, joining Millwall in the same tier for the first time in 16 years.
[1]
During the
2004?05 season
both games were drawn 1?1.
The teams had mixed fortunes in the
2005?06 season
; Leeds won their first League double in the fixture, winning 2?1 at Elland Road with a brace from
David Healy
, and 1?0 at The Den, with
Ben May
scoring a last-minute
own goal
.
They finished the season in a playoff place, while Millwall were relegated to
League One
. Leeds lost in the
2006 Championship play-off final
to
Watford
and were themselves relegated the
following season
to League One, the first time Leeds had been in the third tier of the Football League.
[36]
[37]
The rivalry between the fans intensified in League One during the
2007?08 season
. On 27 October 2007, fans had to be segregated by police after Millwall fans smashed the windows of buses that were transporting them from
Leeds railway station
to Elland Road.
[7]
Leeds fans were waiting for the buses to arrive by the
Billy Bremner
statue outside the stadium, amid violent clashes mounted police had to charge to keep both sets of fans apart.
[7]
The game ended in a 4?2 win for Leeds, with
David Prutton
,
Jermaine Beckford
, and a
Jonathan Douglas
brace putting the Whites 4?0 up, before
Will Hoskins
and
Ahmet Brkovic
pulled two consolation goals back for the Lions.
[1]
On 19 April 2008, Leeds completed their second League double over Millwall, with goals from David Prutton and
Andy Hughes
in a 2?0 win at The Den. This is Leeds best streak in the fixture, winning four in a row and going six games unbeaten.
[1]
Due to the disorder in the 2007?08 season, kick-off times in future fixtures were made earlier and matches heavily policed at
The Den
by the
Metropolitan Police
and at Elland Road by the
West Yorkshire Police
.
[13]
Leeds finished the season in fifth and reached the
2008 League One play-off final
, losing 1?0 to
Doncaster Rovers
.
The sides met four times in the
2008?09 season
, with both teams vying for promotion to the Championship. On 18 October 2008,
Luciano Becchio
gave Leeds the lead at the Den, but goals from
Dave Martin
and a brace from
Neil Harris
secured a 3?1 win for Millwall. Jermaine Beckford scored both goals in the return fixture in a 2?0 win for Leeds. Both teams finished in the
League One play-offs
; Leeds in fourth on 84 points and Millwall in fifth place with 82 points, which set up a
two-legged semi-final
. Millwall won the first leg at the Den 1?0, with a goal from Neil Harris in the 71st minute.
[8]
In the return leg at Elland Road, a record 37,036 fans saw the biggest game between the two sides.
[38]
Leeds evened the tie on aggregate at 1?1, with a goal by Luciano Becchio in the 53rd minute. A goal from
Jimmy Abdou
in the 74th minute won the semi-final for Millwall, sending them to
Wembley
.
[38]
The Lions went on to lose the
2009 League One play-off final
2?3 to
Scunthorpe United
. Both teams were again battling for promotion in the
2009?10 season
. Due to trouble in previous seasons, a hugely unpopular 'anti-hooligan operation' was introduced by West Yorkshire Police in 2010 for Millwall fans to exchange vouchers for tickets at
Woolley Edge service station
on the
M1 motorway
near
Wakefield
.
[15]
[17]
The restriction severely affected the atmosphere in the ground; limiting the number of supporters attending away games at Elland Road, from the capacity of 3,000 visiting fans down to just 150.
[16]
[39]
The Whites were top of the table for most of the first half of the 2009?10 season, and only lost once in their first 24 games. That defeat was a 2?1 loss at the Den, with goals from Neil Harris and
Gary Alexander
. In March 2010, Millwall completed their second League double over Leeds, with
Steve Morison
and
Shaun Batt
securing a 2?0 win at Elland Road. It was their first away win in the fixture in 22 years.
At the end of the season Leeds finished second in League One on 86 points and were promoted automatically. Millwall finished third on 85 points and were promoted via the play-offs, with a 1?0 win over
Swindon Town
in the
2010 League One play-off final
.
Animosity continues into the Championship: 2011?
[
edit
]
Since both clubs were promoted into the Championship the majority of games in the fixture have been won by the home side. Between the
2010?11
and
2017?18 seasons
, Leeds have won five and lost one game at Elland Road. Millwall have also won five games and lost one at the Den.
[1]
On 21 August, 2010, Leeds won 3?1 at Elland Road with a brace from
Davide Somma
.
[1]
In the return fixture at the Den in April 2011, four Millwall fans were ejected and banned for waving
Turkish flags
, mocking
the deaths of two Leeds supporters
who were murdered in Turkey before a match against
Galatasaray
in 2000.
[41]
The game ended in a 3?2 win for Millwall, with
James Henry
,
Liam Trotter
, and Steve Morison scoring for the Lions. Leeds completed their third league double over Millwall in the
2011?12 season

Robert Snodgrass
goals gave the Whites a 2?0 win at Elland Road in December, 2011. A solitary
Ross McCormack
goal secured the win at the Den in March, 2012.
[1]
A
Chris Wood
goal in the 85th minute gave Millwall a 1?0 win at the Den in November, 2012. This began a run of seven successive wins for the home team in the fixture. In March 2013, a penalty by
Stephen Warnock
won the game for Leeds in the return fixture in the
2012?13 season
.
[1]
On 28 September 2013, goals from
Martyn Woolford
and
Scott Malone
gave Millwall a 2?0 victory at the Den. Leeds won 2?1 at Elland Road the following March, with
Matt Smith
and Ross McCormack scoring the goals for the Whites.
[1]
On the opening day of the
2014?15 season
, Millwall supporters goaded Leeds fans with songs about
paedophile
Jimmy Savile
(who was born in
Leeds
). Millwall manager at the time
Ian Holloway
called the songs, "obscene and disrespectful to Savile's victims."
[42]
The Lions won the game 2?0, with a goal from
Mark Beevers
and a
Shaun Williams
penalty.
[1]
Leeds won the return fixture at Elland Road 1?0, with a goal from

. The Lions finished in the play-offs, before losing in the
2016 League One play-off final
to
Barnsley
1?3.
[43]
In the
2016?17 season
, Millwall finished in the play-offs again and returned to Wembley, this time defeating
Bradford City
1?0 in the
2017 League One play-off final
, gaining promotion to the Championship.
[44]
In the
2017?18 season
, Millwall rejoined Leeds in the Championship after a two year absence. The sides met at the Den on 16 September 2017, with Leeds unbeaten and top of the Championship table. An
Aiden O'Brien
goal won the game for Millwall 1?0, with Leeds conceding their first goal in over ten hours of football.
[45]
In the return fixture at Elland Road on 20 January 2018; Millwall beat Leeds 4?3, the highest ever scoring game between the sides. In a highly eventful match, Leeds came back from 0?2 and a man down after their captain
Liam Cooper
was sent-off to lead 3?2, but two late goals in the final two minutes gave Millwall their third league double over Leeds and first away win of the season.
[46]
The sides played out a 1-1 draw at the Den the
following season
, with
Jed Wallace
giving the Lions the lead just after half-time, and a late equaliser by
Jack Harrison
in the 89th minute sharing the points.
[47]
Leeds won the return fixture at Elland Road 3?2. Millwall twice took the lead, but a
Pablo Hernandez
double secured all three points for the Whites.

[49]

Casper Ankergren
being involved in an accident with a fan who was arrested on suspicion of assault.
[51]
The FA
launched an investigation into the trouble, with Ankergren saying, "I was pushed in the back by one of the fans that came on the pitch too. It's very bad for football and Millwall should be punished."

Dennis Wise
was player-manager at Millwall from 2003?05, where he led them to the
FA Cup
final and European football for the first time in their history.
He took charge of Leeds in 2006 but couldn't stop them being relegated to the third tier of English football for the first time in their history.
[37]
Wise resigned in January 2008 with Leeds eighth in the League, to take up a role at Newcastle United.
