Had a strange encounter in a pub today in Yorkshire. Guy serving our food heard my accent and said, oh are you Scottish.

Anyway, he went onto claim his only visit to Scotland was when "he got ran out of Ibrox" as his team Millwall scored a 3rd goal against us, and it was when they had a Scottish manager in 2006'07 time

Doubtful for one that we lost at home to Millwall 3.0, but i genuinely can't even remember playing them,  and found no evidence of this on Google.

Can anyone remember such a game?

 

Find it a weird story to make up to be fair. Guy near choked when i pulled my season ticket card out ma wallet to show him

Like you, I cant recall us ever playing Millwall at Ibrox.

 

I looked on the official site as there used to be a search facility for all games we've played, but can't find it on new website. 

 

Searched on here and other websites and can't find any reference to this game.

Millwall are a club with Scottish origins. They’re named after Millwall on the Isle of Dogs where they started out but have since moved to South London. Their strip is/was the blue and white of the saltire and their badge the Scottish lion

Update.

 

I was wrong when I said we had never played Millwall 

Just stumbled across this

 

Millwall Athletic 5, Rangers 1

1st April 1899

 

RGS  Jimmy Oswald 

Att, 7000

 

The match appears to be part of a wee tour of England,  we beat Liverpool and Southampton either side of the Millwall game.
