La probabile semifinale dei play-off per la promozione dalla “League One” alla “Championship” tra Millwall e Leeds continua a fare discutere ben prima di essere eventualmente disputata. Infatti non è certo che le due formazioni si incroceranno nel proseguio, sebbene tale probabilità appaia altissima alla luce dell’ attuale classifica del campionato, ma già le autorità studiano ingenti misure di sicurezza per garantire l’ ordine pubblico. La polizia starebbe seriamente considerando di vietare la presenza di fans ospiti nella gara di andata e di ritorno sebbene su più di un “forum” si affermi che nulla sarebbe stato deciso al riguardo per il timore che gruppi di supporters seguano lo stesso la squadra lontano dalle mura amiche acquistando biglietti riservati al pubblico di casa. In questo caso il rimedio avrebbe alte probabilità di rilevarsi peggiore del male. Intanto, però, a dispetto delle voci che profetizzano un divieto di trasferta, i siti ufficiali delle due società danno le prime indicazioni ai propri sostenitori per le eventuali gare dei “play off”. Mentre su quello dei “Lions” si precisa che ci saranno restrizioni relative ai punti vendita qualora l’ avversario fossero i “bianchi”, quello del Leeds, per ora, nulla accenna al rigaurdo.

“AWAY supporters seem certain to be banned if Leeds and Millwall are paired together in the League One play-off semi-finals next month.
Top-level talks have taken place between the clubs, who are on a collision course to meet in a two-legged tie at Elland Road and The Den. It is believed they agreed not to allow visiting fans at the matches.
With a Wembley appearance and possible promotion to the Championship at stake, police fear violence between football’s most notorious hooligan fans.
An even bigger concern is the security nightmare it would cause if the clubs clashed in the final on May 24.”
