Millwall Football Club (-enˈmɪlwɔːl) are an English professional football club based in South Bermondsey in the London Borough of Lewisham, South East London. Formed in 1885, they are known as The Lions. They have played at their ground The Den since 1993. They have retained the Millwall name despite having last played in the Millwall area, on the Isle of Dogs in 1910. The club currently competes in The Championship, the second tier of English football.

Their traditional strip consists of blue shirts, white shorts and blue socks. Their current strip celebrates the 125-year anniversary of the club in 2010 � 11. The colour pays homage to the Scottish roots of the club and the first ever kit worn by Millwall in 1885, which they played in up until 1936. It is a darker Dundee blue for their shirts and socks, with white shorts. Their traditional crest is a rampant lion.

They reached the 2004 FA Cup Final, losing 3 � 0 to Manchester United. As United had already qualified for the UEFA Champions League that season, Millwall qualified for the UEFA Cup the following season and played in Europe for the first time in their history. They've also reached the FA Cup semi-finals on three separate occasions, in 1900, 1903 and 1937.

Millwall share a fierce long-standing rivalry with West Ham United. The local derby between the two has been contested almost 100 times since 1899. The club's highest final league position is 10th place in the 1988 � 89 First Division. Based on all results during their 84 seasons in the Football League from 1920 � 21 to 2010 � 11, Millwall are ranked as the all-time 40th most successful English football club domestically. The club's supporters chant is "No one likes us, we don't care".
