Millwall Here We Come

Coventry City fans will be travelling to The New Den, Millwall next season to watch The Sky Blues play in The Championship .

In today's League One play off final Milwall beat Swindon 1-0 to win promotion to The Championship. Paul Robinson scored the only goal of the game in the 39th minute.

Millwall had the better of the game and were deserved winners, but after a poor first half, Swindon improved in the second half to give the Londoners a scare.

Millwall thought they had taken the lead through an own goal by Kevin Amankwaah when the Swindon player headed into his own net but Milwall's Liam Trotter was adjudged offside and the goal was ruled out.

Captain Paul Robinson fired The Lions ahead in the 40th minute from Danny Schofield's corner with a four yard shot.

Swindon had chanced to equalise, none better than the chance for Charlie Austin who went one-on-one with the goalkeeper and managed to put his shot wide of the goal.

Jean-François Lescinel was booked late on in the game for unsporting behaviour, the only yellow card of the game played in front of a 73,108 crowd, who had paid between £36 and £86 to get in.
