Neil Andrews explains the sharp and sudden decline of a defender who found himself more popular with supporters than managers
There are not many former Millwall players who can claim to have played their last game for the club in an FA Cup final. In fact, there are only two. Australian midfielder Tim Cahill is one.

He was also one of the most popular footballers to have played at The Den in recent memory.
