Neil Harris to Step Down as Millwall Manager After Controversial Fan Comments
The club legend and all-time top scorer will leave his role after Saturday’s match, following mutual agreement with Millwall's leadership.
- Neil Harris, Millwall's manager and all-time leading goal scorer, will step down after Saturday’s game against Middlesbrough, concluding his second stint with the club.
- The decision comes days after Harris referred to a section of Millwall fans as 'thickos' in response to criticism following a 1-0 loss to Coventry City.
- Harris returned to manage Millwall in February 2024, guiding the team from relegation danger to mid-table safety in the Championship last season.
- Millwall currently sits in 11th place, six points off the playoff positions, with Harris citing the timing as right for his departure despite recent mixed results.
- The club has begun the search for a successor, with interim management plans to be announced following Harris’s final match on Saturday.
