Goalkeeper Liam Roberts is set to depart Millwall after failing to secure a new contract. The 30-year-old made a total of six appearances in his year with the club, with his notable moment being a red card during the FA Cup match against Crystal Palace. Following the incident, he faced significant online abuse, which Millwall condemned. Despite the challenges, Roberts expressed gratitude to the club's fans and staff for their support during tough times, emphasizing the kindness shown to him and his family.
I want to express my heartfelt thanks to the fans, my team-mates and all the staff. My family and I were shown incredible support during one of the most difficult times in our lives, and we'll never forget the kindness and care we received from everyone connected to the club. That will stay with us forever.
Roberts became the target of what Millwall described as 'abhorrent' online abuse in the wake of the incident.
