'I don't think this is goodbye'

Saturday's defeat at Middlesbrough brought an end to the latest chapter in the long-running story of Neil Harris' Millwall career - but it would be no surprise to see the club's record goalscorer return to The Den in the future.

That's the view of BBC Radio London sport editor and commentator Phil Parry, who has followed Harris' career since he began reporting on Millwall in 2000, two years after the striker had joined the club as a 20-year-old.

Since arriving in 1998, Harris has devoted 17 years to the club as a player and a coach.

Despite leaving The Den a number of times, he has always found his way back home.

"Millwall got under Neil's skin. He went away as a player, he came back. He went away as a manager, he came back," Parry said.

"This is so long but I don't think it's goodbye. It wouldn't surprise anyone if Millwall find themselves in a difficult situation in the future and (if) Neil was available they would turn to him to come and do something – it's his football club."
