Millwall manager Alex Neil has called on his team to approach the Championship promotion challenge with confidence, saying they should have 'zero fear' as they compete for a spot in the top two. The Lions are currently third in the league with four games remaining and can move up to second with a win over QPR. A victory would also secure a play-off place if Wrexham fails to beat Stoke. Despite recent ups and downs, including a defeat to Norwich and a draw with West Brom, Neil believes his team should embrace the situation and give it their all.
'You never know when this opportunity will come again, so make sure you enjoy every moment and give it your best shot,' he said. Neil, who has experience guiding teams to promotion with Norwich and Sunderland, emphasized the importance of maintaining a cool head while keeping a strong desire to win. He also reminded fans to keep things in perspective, noting that the team has already given them one of the best seasons in decades.
While the goal is to achieve automatic promotion, Neil stated that the play-offs would not be a disappointment, as it would provide an opportunity to fight for a spot in the top tier.
