Tony Cascarino has urged Millwall to “get rid” of the small portion of their fan base who ensure the club’s reputation remains one of the poorest in the football world.Cascarino, a Millwall fan who went on to represent his boyhood club as a player, was discussing the Lions on talkSPORT in the wake of Saturday evening’s memorable defeat of Everton.The Championship strugglers dumped Everton out the FA Cup by claiming a 3-2 win courtesy of Murray Wallace’s injury-time winning goal, but the match was marred by two big incidents involving the club’s supporters.3
Millwall fans singing I would rather be a p*** than a scouse to Everton fans is just fully vile.

Anyone identified and guilty of such abuse will be banned from The Den for life.”Everton encouraged any fans who attended the game and witnessed incidents in or around the stadium to contact them with any information which may help the investigation. Anti-discrimination group Kick It Out condemned the alleged chants and called for action to be taken.“The racist chanting heard from some Millwall supporters during yesterday’s match is disgusting and typical of mass discriminatory chants that continue to go unpunished,” a statement said.“We reiterate our message: racial hatred – and all forms of discrimination – have no place in society, especially not in 2019. There is no reason why a footballing environment should be the exception to this rule.“Kick It Out wants to see the relevant authorities take swift, firm and decisive action against the perpetrators.”
