you can have a cup that only 2 teams ever enter, the Rous cup was like that until they brought a third team into it.

Last round. Winner takes trophy. If a draw, West Ham or France could still nick it.

Wanting Millwall to win a mythical cup was ok though.

First time you saw your team play live?

1967 : Sheff Wed v Leeds at Hillsborough.
I think it was 1995. Nottingham Forest did an Australian tour and played Adelaide City at Hindmarsh.
It was pretty exciting to actually get to see them play.

1999 watched Australia V Man Utd at the MCG
2006 saw Olympiakos play their first league match against skoda xanthi

Sounds like a demand rather than a question to me. Ask politely and I will endeavour to help you out.

In this mythical cup they have mythically become Millwall's latest signings.

His son would be one of the few locals that support them.

I support my local team (except in the SA NPL)

I don't have a local team in England though.
