Zian Flemming got intro trouble when he tried explaining how much victory meant for the promotion-seeking Lions

Flemming seemed unfazed as he continued to smile during the interview – amid laughter in the background.

That’s partly because he was in buoyant mood as the Lions had climbed back into the Championship play-off zone with a 3-2 win at Blackpool.

Victory lifted Millwall two places to fifth but confirmed relegation for the Tangerines.

Flemming started to say in the post-match chat: “When you’ve had such a s*** record…”

He was immediately told: “Careful with the language, please.”

The 24-year-old responded with: “Can I not say that..?”

His interviewer then not only confirmed he could not do so but added: “POOR record, I think you can get away with.”

One bemused fan posted: “Championship – always delivers.”

Flemming then won it from the spot… before getting in his spot of bother off the pitch.
