Neil Harris is confident a positive week for Millwall can help the club make serious progress after they reached the FA Cup fifth round by defeating Watford 1-0.
Yesterday’s victory was their second in two against Premier League opposition — Steve Morison scored the game’s only goal to follow up their third-round elimination of Bournemouth — and came just five days after the abandonment of a controversial property scheme that threatened their future.
A proposed compulsory purchase order (CPO) of land surrounding The Den was on Wednesday ended by Lewisham Council having been a long-term concern for Millwall, leaving them at risk of relocation.
The issue had also overshadowed their recent fine form and pursuit of promotion from League One, both of which will likely be strengthened now that such uncertainty has passed.
“We can use the positivity around CPO issues, and performances on the pitch, to be a club moving in the right direction,” said manager Harris.
