    Wonder what the Millwall fans thought when they promoted a guy from within, a coach with zero managerial experience.
    Two play off finals and staying up in the championship later.


    The 7 week wait was bad, everyone will agree.


    But we wanted a young hungry head coach and we got one. Give him the support and respect he deserves regardless of what you think of the owners.

    I think most fans will back him from the start.. it's not his fault Edin couldn't sell his vision.
    Of course, as with any manager/coach, if results don't go well over a period of time then he'll have to take some shit.

    The HC isn’t the full issue, it’s whats happening in the background. Rahic is driving good people away from the club. 6/7 weeks to promote from within has echoes of January window again. We are after this player and that and end up with Brunker..no disrespect to the lad.

    What’s done is done, we will back the coaching team and players, but if/when it goes tits up, the angry must be directed at the owners. They will live and die by this appointment, as will I fear the clubs progress. There will not be a line of new owners in the wings waiting to buy them out.

    I hope that we are all eating humble pie come next May when Edin is sat on a open top bus saying “I told you, I know football” but I doubt it.

    Neil Harris was a legend at Millwall, it was just like appointing McCall here the first time. Most fans had never heard of Collins until yesterday.

    He was a legend for the club. A little different.

    Oh and their chairman isn't running the team and training.

    Their chairman isn't stupid enough to brake up a good squad like ours.

    There is nothing wrong with criticism where people feel it's warranted, as long as you don't go to far.

    The owners came in saying championship within 3 years etc. Do you see that this year? Mid table at best for me, and that's dependant on recruitment. Just because there is a negative reaction to this, doesn't mean there won't be 14-15,000 cheering Collins on first game of the season.

    I hope Edin can get on top of an open top bus at the end of the season and stick to fingers up at us who've criticised.

    Neil Harris is irrelevant, but I'm sure he had his critics.

    What does it matter if he breaks up our squad? You've said our squads are shit for the last 10 years.

    I for one would have thought you'd be happy with that.

    If getting behind what's happening makes people thoroughly nice chaps, does that mean they can call you fannies for the strops you throw about things you don't like?

    I’m throwing no strop, simply saying that Edin’s lead us a merry dance and we end up with the U18 coach. And you think we should get behind the lads FFS?

    I think Edin has played a blinder, he gets so much stick and just carries on whilst people like you call other fans thoroughly nice chaps because they don't agree with your stance and insult him.

    So I'm asking what can the thoroughly nice chaps call you? Fannies? Drama queens? What's the return name?

    Well played Edin, keep it up next season will be fantastic. It's going one of two ways, we will piss the league and everyone will be shocked or we will have the lowest points tally in league 1 history. Either way it's going to be amusing watching the thoroughly nice chaps v (pick an insulting name).

    Thank you, what's the return name?

    A true thoroughly nice chap would be defending what he's doing, I'm not I'm finding it amusing and even more amusing how people are reacting.
