Millwall began in 1885 as Millwall Rovers, set up by employees at J.T. Morton's canning and preserve factory on the Isle of Dogs in London's East End. The first match was an away game on 3 October 1885 against Fillebrook, and by April 1889 the club had dropped Rovers from its name to become Millwall Athletic. FA Cup semi-finals came in 1900 and 1903. The club was invited into the Football League in 1920, and the records piled up quickly: 11 consecutive clean sheets in 1925–26 and 87 league goals at home in 1927–28. Later came the upsets, notably a 2–1 FA Cup win over Newcastle United in January 1957. Teddy Sheringham scored 38 goals in 1990–91, the most in the Football League, before a £2 million move to Nottingham Forest. The 2004 FA Cup final ended in a 3–0 defeat, with Ruud van Nistelrooy scoring twice. Kenny Jackett arrived in November 2007, and the 2008–09 play-off final brought defeat to Scunthorpe United.
The Den in Bermondsey opened in 1993 and holds 20,146. The record crowd, 20,093, came for a 1994 FA Cup meeting with Arsenal. Millwall's older story is tied to the Isle of Dogs: the Athletic Grounds became their third home on 6 September 1890, and the last game played on the island came on 8 October 1910, a 3–1 win over Portsmouth.
West Ham are Millwall's fiercest rival, and the feeling is returned: West Ham count Millwall as a major rival of their own. Leeds supply the other rivalry with a storyline. It sharpened once Leeds dropped out of the Premier League in 2004, and it ran on into 2008–09, when both clubs were chasing promotion to the Championship and Millwall knocked Leeds out of the League One play-offs at the semi-final stage. Leeds also number among the four clubs that see Millwall as a major rival, along with West Ham, Crystal Palace and Charlton Athletic. That is a big part of why Millwall rank eighth among Football League clubs for the sheer number of rivals they have. Portsmouth, Everton and Gillingham sit lower down, with minor rivalries and friction between supporters that dates back to the 1970s.
Millwall against Leeds is a high-scoring fixture, averaging 3.2 goals over 10 meetings (all competitions).
| Rival | P | W | D | L | Goals/game | Last met |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Leeds | 10 | 4 | 1 | 5 | 3.2 | |
| Crystal Palace | 7 | 0 | 3 | 4 | 3.3 |
