LähiTapiola.fi Hey, who's driving? I've only had four. Where are we going now? What's the deal here? Bus, taxi or a clear ride? Of course. Obviously. Difficult situation. Easy solution. Only clear to the wheel. Transport safety. Hi, welcome back. This is another edition of That Mill Podcast. This show's been obviously recorded before the Agilium game, which is being played later on today. Right, and without further ado, we will introduce you to the panel on today's show. I am joined by the one and only Stephen. Hello, fella. Hello, Mickey. You all right? Yes, mate. I'm all good. I'm all good. I'm all good. And also, we are joined by Dan. How are you doing, fella? You all right? Yeah, evening, chaps. It's good to be going back to some football finally.
Yes, absolutely agree with that one, fella. Absolutely agree with that one. So then, what have you got in store for today's episode? We're going to be talking about James Beresford. Obviously, the news broke today that he is our new chairman. We're going to be talking about the new kit. We're going to be talking about lack of signings. Should we be worried yet? And also, we're going to be talking about ticket prices this year for away games coming up. Don't go anywhere. We'll be straight back after this. So then, gents, good evening, good afternoon, good morning. News broke today, then, obviously, of our new chairman, James Berylson, obviously John's son. Let's just read the statement, and then I'll take your thoughts and views on that.
So today there was a statement made... by the club on behalf of either James Berylson or James Berylson press statement it says to our Millwall family I would like to start by saying on behalf of the Berylson family an enormous and very heartfelt thank you to everyone for the outpouring of love and affection for dad following the tragic events of last week this remains a very challenging time for us but the many thousands of messages of support we received from our Millwall family has been a source of tremendous comfort. We are immensely grateful for the photos and video tributes from the Dem and those who took the time to go there or sign the online book of condolence. Your collective support means more than I can possibly begin to articulate.
As we all know, Dad had a deep and infectious love for Millwall. He cared passionately about the players, staff, management, and most importantly, our supporters. It is a love that spread throughout the Berylson family, and Millwall has become a huge part of our lives for so long now. I have witnessed incredible moments of joy, drama and success at the Den alongside my dad, and these memories will last a lifetime. From the day forward, From this day forward, though, it is about creating new ones. John Berylson, our chairman, had dreams for this club. He had a vision and a plan, and I am fiercely determined and passionate about continuing his work and building on this foundation. It is with sincere and immeasurable pride that I take on the chairmanship of this great football club.
It is what my dad wanted. And I am thankful for his mentorship. I joined the board of directors in 2010 and blessed by his trust and faith in me. I'm also grateful to my Millwall colleagues for their support in recent days, but also more broadly, the advice and guidance they have provided me over the years. We will pay tribute to Dad at the Bristol City game, our first home league match of the season on Saturday the 12th of August. I hope all of you can join my family for this very emotional occasion. This will mark the start of a new era, one in which we will strive to fulfil Dad's legacy. We are Millwall. We are family. James Berylson. I think it was a lovely statement. I think it was a lovely thing to put out considering how hard it's probably been for the Berylson family over the last week.
And I think it's something what's probably needed to just give Millwall fans a little bit of reassurance that pretty much it's full sail ahead and it's business as normal. I think so. I think take, first of all, obviously, you know, the last couple of weeks have been very, very challenging for his family, for us as fans, you know, it was a huge shock.
