London: English football chiefs said on Monday they would voice concerns to Wembley stadium over the way Millwall fans ran onto the pitch following Saturday’s League One play-off victory, raising fears that such invasions are on the rise. The EFL condemned “unsavoury scenes” at the end of Millwall’s 1-0 win over Bradford City when hundreds of fans burst past stewards. A small number then taunted Bradford players as they went to the dressing rooms. Millwall manager Neil Harris ordered all supporters from the pitch and the club’s players condemned the behaviour. “The EFL will be writing to Stuart McCall and his Bradford team to apologise for the situation they found themselves in,” the English Football League said.
