Millwall 'deserve play-offs' but 'might fall short'

Alex Neil has won promotion via the play-offs with Norwich City and Sunderland

Three wins on the bounce have put Millwall within three points of the Championship play-off places with four games remaining.

We asked you whether you think the Lions can finish in a top-six spot in the second tier for the first time since 2001-02.

Here's what you said:

Alfie: To be honest, for what Alex Neil has done since coming in, we deserve the play-offs. Players have been class last three games and I can only see this team improving. Millwall to finish sixth for me.

Philip: A real character-filled end of season that I think will fall slightly short. Nonetheless gives hope for a real challenge next season. AN has brought about the best in some of our squad and the new Millwall are thriving.

Stevo: It's a dream. It's the one thing at Millwall that unites us - doing things the difficult way. It can be done but we need a big slice of Lady Luck. Every game is winnable. Every game is a cup final. COYL.

Safouane: I think so. I mean looking at our rivals' fixtures definitely gives me hope. The team's really coming together with Alex Neil at the wheel. Come on Wall!

Richard: I think we will just miss out, but what a great run. Look forward to next year. Great signs good things are to come.

Roger: My feeling is that it will again come down to the final game of the season. It might depend on Burnley's position. If they are champions or in second place, they may relax. If they are in the play-offs, they may want to save themselves and field a weakened team. Otherwise they will be going all out for a win. In that case, Millwall will need to take every opportunity that they are presented with - not always one of their strengths.

Colin: Usually teams that reach the play-offs' sixth position do so with momentum, grit and determination. Millwall have that in abundance. COYL.

Robin: I don't think they will quite make the play-offs. The season is ending a bit too soon for that. But I could be wrong, of course. They have done really well in what has been a tough year. Loads of team spirit, good players and an honest manager whose tactics and coaching are working.

Tim: Possible? Yes. Likely? No. Apart from anything else Millwall's inferior goal difference puts them on the back foot. However, both Bristol City and Coventry have some challenging final games, so if they slip someone could make it in…

Bill: I hope we do but I don't think we will. It isn't just about catching the sixth-placed team, we have two other teams between us and them. We would need a lot of permutations to go our way, not least of all having to win all four of our games. That's a tough ask in the Championship where nothing comes easy. Neil has done a great job. Good recruitment in Jan. Unlucky with injuries. I think recruit well again in the summer and have a full season as the 'new' Millwall and keep believing we can do it.

David: The Lions have as good a chance as any. We have been slowly building under Alex Neil. The influx of a number of quality young players in January bodes well for the future and is part of a broader strategy at the club. If not this season then next.
