Millwall Football Club is a football team based at the 20,146 capacity New Den Stadium in south-east London, England. They currently play in the Football League Championship.
Their team nickname is The Lions, derived from their club emblem. Their traditional strip consists of vertical blue and white stripes. The club was founded in 1885 by Scottish dock workers. The blue in their home strip comes from these Scottish dock workers. The club's name comes from where it was founded, at the Millwall Docks on the Isle of Dogs, across the River Thames from where the club now plays.
In 2003, Dennis Wise, ex-Chelsea and England player, became caretaker, and subsequently permanent player-manager of the club. In his first season in charge, Wise led the club to the first FA Cup final in their history. They played the Cup final on May 22 2004, losing 3-0 to Manchester United.
