The Metropolitan Police have described the violent clashes between Millwall and Everton fans ahead of their FA Cup clash on Saturday as “some of the most shocking football violence we have seen for some time”.An Everton fan suffered a “life-changing injury” after an attack from a Millwall supporter amid violent scenes in south London before the tea-time kick-off.The injured man named himself on social media as Jay Burns, posting an image showing a long scar down the right side of his face, while a police officer was also injured.

3Millwall’s 3-2 win over the Premier League side was then marred by a video which appears to show home fans engaging in racist taunts of the visitors.The Football Association has said it is investigating while Millwall have pledged to hand out life bans to any one found guilty.Lions chief executive Steve Kavanagh said the incidents have ruined the win, but insists the club should not be subjected to an “attack” or the “same old response”, claiming the response has been blown out of proportion.
3Tony Cascarino: “Millwall violence makes my stomach turn”
“We need the authorities, the Football Association, Kick It Out, ourselves and other clubs, rather than threatening everyone with ground closures and sensationalising, ‘Chuck them out of the cup’, and ridiculous notions that are going on….“We need to all come together and find a way of trying to get this education. Football is fantastic, let’s use its place in society to educate people and find a way of doing that and really coming together.“Don’t say, ‘Oh let’s get Millwall out of the FA Cup’, use it as a position to say, ‘Let’s get with Millwall, they have been doing this for years, they have got organisations set up in place to educate people, let’s go and work with them and see how we can help them’.
I feel embarrassed for my own club.It makes my stomach turn when I see whats happening at this football club.There are a number of fans who, being brutally honest, are proud of it.Former #Millwall star @TonyCascarino62 on shameful scenes at his old club. pic.twitter.com/riNHRkbp3p— talkSPORT (@talkSPORT) January 27, 2019“It’s an area I would like to explore with the FA and Kick It Out, rather than the same old response which is, ‘Right, let’s have a go at Millwall, let’s fine them or do whatever’.“That’s not getting us anywhere.“This isn’t just a Millwall thing, this happens across society, if you try and tell me there hasn’t been a this sort of chant in another club this season in this country I won’t believe you.“It’s an issue in society, we will take responsibility for our guys.“We are an easy peg to hang this on, there is a history there and everything something like this comes up it gets blown into huge proportions as is happening now.”
