Shaun Hutchinson has praised the Millwall supporters for the excellent backing that they've given the team in recent weeks.

The Lions were once again brilliant on Saturday as Millwall managed to net a last minute winner against local rivals Charlton at the Den.

It's the second home win that Millwall have had under Gary Rowett and it's exciting times as they look to break into the top half.

It's going to be a long season for the Lions, but they have to have belief that they can compete with the top teams in the Championship.

Hutchinson has praised the supporters and has stated that they're a massive reason as to why the side pick up so many points at home.

Speaking to News Shopper, Hutchinson said: “When it [The Den] is like that, the fans are like that, it’s great to play in. It drives you through. Credit to them, because we pick up so many points at home.

“The way it went – a last-minute winner – the fans loved it. They’ll be going home happy and we’re really happy. To go into the international break with a win is brilliant, especially the way we’ve done that.”

The Verdict

Millwall have always been strong at home, and that's because it is a very intimidating place to play, and because the support that the fans give the players is brilliant.

The Lions will be hoping that they can begin to pick up a few more points away from the Den, as that would see them really start to push up the league table.

Rowett has had a fairly good start to life at Millwall, but he knows he can do better in the future away from home and he will be working hard on working out a formula that cans see them do this.
