60s. Name the two members of a footballing dynasty who played for Millwall during this decade before moving over the river and to the west to sign for another London side at the same time.

70s. A old red lug on the left wing?

80s. Who are the two players in this picture – the one in the foreground signed for Palace from Millwall and played First Division football for another London team earlier in his career.

90s. This member of the England squad which finished third in the 1993 FIFA World Youth Championship turned out at full back for City in a game against Millwall during this decade while he was also on the books of Grays Athletic. Later he would be associated with Fortuna Dusseldorf, but by the time he left the game in 2003, he had only played league football for a club from across the water which plays in red – can you name him?

00s. A winner at Ninian Park with Millwall at the age of thirty two during this decade, this ten times capped international has played for another eight sides since then (including a team that recently won the Premier League and there’s also been three separate spells with the same club in Cornwall). Currently, he’s player/coach at a town known for it’s castle and his three goals this season have taken his career total to over two hundred and sixty, but who am I describing?

10s. Name this player who featured for Millwall the last time they visited Cardiff City Stadium.
