I think this match is a lot harder than people seem to be making out and I wouldn't fancy us going down there on Friday. The club, and players will be wounded and presumably trying to apologise and appease their fans, especially in their last home game. Some of the players also no doubt playing for a new contract/audience. Not saying Leicester will win but I can't see a Millwall win.
edit, sorry a lot of this has been mentioned in the Southampton thread [Post edited 23 Apr 12:30]

This is what i'm hoping, however will the players really care?
When you read that many are on upwards of 40k per week and they know lcfc will lose anyone of any value come the summer some of them may already be on the beach |  | | |

Yes, it is potentially more challenging than a lot seem to be suggesting it is. Despite them being pretty disgraceful this season they have several talented players that can hurt you and they do score goals (only 5 less than Millwall). We don't need Leicester to win either, a point will suffice. | | | |

Protest planned for this game, banners prepared, only reason lots are turning up is for this reason (and others will boycott) will be 90 minutes of chants against some of the players and loads against the owners, expect it will get abusive too
I don't think the players who are a bunch of wet blankets anyway will be up for giving their all in that atmosphere. The fans hate them as it is and presumably the players hate the fans too. It will absolutely poisonous and like a home game for Millwall
Sorry to say this but I wouldn't bank on any dropped points here, don't expect anything other than a comfortable Millwall win, reckon 1-4 |  |

Yup. I thought all their last 4 were Millwall bankers, even before the Pompey game, and saw them as the main threat rather than Saints, even though most on here seemed to have tunnel vision about Southampton. And it is proving to be so.
Town just got to focus on doing their bit, don't need any favours from Millwall if we beat WBA and QPR and we can also afford to go to Soton and lose or draw. And if we can't beat WBA it will be a bitter pill but we do have that Soton game as a second chance to get the win if needed.
I'm sure McKenna is wholly focused on these games, and is barely giving Millwall a 2nd thought, that's the beauty of it being in our hands.
Millwall on the other hand will have one eye on what Ipswich are doing because they do need favours and even though we've given them some encouragement as of kate I'm sure last night will have been a huge kick in the balls for them. [Post edited 23 Apr 13:04]

Although if Charlton lose at home on Sat to Hull, and that's poss as Hull must win - and Oxford beat Sheff W, very likely, then a win for Oxford at Millwall last game and they could avoid relegation. Lots of permutations |  | | |

I would like to think some of the players will be playing to put them selves in ship window but assumed they should have been doing this all season. I don’t really know what’s gone wrong as on paper there are so many highly skilled and big value players that have dropped off a cliff. | | | |

I like your thinking, but I just can't see it.
Leicester players don't give a to$$ for the club and with the planned protests it will be so toxic and horrible for them to play in, I think Millwall will ease to a comfortable win.
And Oxford at home could be a cricket score!
We need to beat West Brom! |  |

Ah mate don't get me started. The club's a shambles from top to bottom and the players are not held to the standards yous expect and able to get away with doing the bare minimum on and off the pitch. See Harry Winks a former England international and Champions league finalist as a prime example as he's been regularly outplayed by comparatively agricultural midfielders all season just because they're up for it and he's not. | |

The worst thing about Charlton beating Hull if it happens is, if Wrexham lose at Coventry (perfectly feasible) then Norwich could be going into the final day with a shot of playoffs. They play Hull as well, where a win would guarantee them finishing above them, Wrexham have Boro. Derby obviously in there too but Norwich getting a very unlikely 6th on the final day and us finishing 3rd really doesn't bare thinking about.
I'm sick of the permutations. Wake me up when its over. |  | | |

What it is, I think, is a highly unpredictable game.
Leicester could be anything from docile and disinterested, to free and expansive and using all of their undoubted talents.
Millwall will attack, but I could see this one being 4-0 either way. |  |

What’s really crazy is looking at the quality in Leicester’s team and wondering how the fk they got relegated. I know the points deduction pushed them that way a little bit but still…. An absolutely baffling relegation. And Gary Rowett about to become a quiz answer… which manager relegated two teams in the same league in the same season |  |

Leicester are dog shit, I'm still annoyed we only took 1 point off them this season and that tosser of a referee robbed us. | | | |

Thing is, that team still have the individual ability to be dangerous. It only takes something like their first goal against us at the King Power to go in and it changes the whole complexion of the game. |  |

Hopefully Leicester do that courtesy of a really dodgy penalty to send the Millwall fans even further into meltdown. |  |

We've been saying that for a while though haven't we? They've won 1 home game since the 5th of January. Lost to QPR, lost to Charlton, lost to Oxford.
Hopefully there's some kind of dead cat bounce, and they want to prove a bit of a point, and to be fair I'd take a draw right now, but I'm not holding out loads of hope. Horrible atmosphere to play in front of, already down, desperate for the season to end, and most of them know they'll be playing elsewhere next season and won't want to get injured. They've got no bottle, and up against a Millwall side that are well organised and willing to run harder. | | | |

A draw would be a cracking result. Would mean we would need just 4 points from 9. It could happen too, Millwall have struggled with pressure.
The end of the season has been pretty relentless. This game is tomorrow. |  | | |

They have been, as a team, but they also have a fair few top quality Championship players with Prem experience. If they've been playing with a gob on all season, getting relegated might just release them to play to something like their actual potential.
Not saying I think it's probable, or even likely, but I'd say it's a credible possibility. Either that or my wishful thinking! | |

I can't see it unfortunately. Millwall will be right up for it and I'm not sure there are a group of players that care less about the results of the team they play for than Leicester's.
It's the Championship so you never know and maybe it'll be a freak game but if Millwall get ahead I think Leicester will collapse and the visitors could probably score as many as they want. |  |

What are the chances of Leicester dropping the primadonna, overpaid, useless bunch for the last couple of games, and go with the players that are more likely to be hanging around for next season? The ones that do give a damn. What's the point in sticking with the expensive players who have not been good enough up to now? |  | | |

It's more to emphasise that any kind of slip-up is likely to be fatal to Millwall's hopes. Which can turn on quite chance events - a wild shot going in, a goal disallowed, even an unfortunate card.
Whereas if Ipswich have a balls-up, we get another chance. | |

I hope you're right, and its not impossible, pressure can do funny things to people. I'm fully preparing myself to tune in and be fairly promptly tuning off in disgust when Millwall are strolling to a win.
Gutless frauds that Leicester lot, they haven't got a b0llock between them. Disgraceful season. | | | |

Had there not been an apparent, complete breakdown between fans / players over recent weeks there might have been a chance of a Leicester being up for it . But I think there is such a toxicity hanging over that club now, I think Millwall will capitalise .. Oxford , on the other hand ... |  |

I agree. I know Leicester have been dreadful this season but let's not forget they were a Prem league club last season. They have some decent individual players who can cause anyone in this league issues as we have found out twice this season. Just wish they had more to play for. | | | |
