Championship: Wolves boss Kenny Jackett says Millwall return was surreal

Kenny Jackett described his return to Millwall as surreal but conceded Wolves' defending was all too ordinary after they surrendered a three-goal lead to draw 3-3 at the Den.

Jackett, back at the Den for the first time since his departure as Lions boss after nearly six years in May 2013, was left stunned as a late Ricardo Fuller double earned Millwall a point.

The Lions rallied after a Bakary Sako-inspired Wolves went 3-0 ahead just after the hour - Danny Batth and Ethan Ebanks-Landell both finding the net as well as the 26-year-old with a fine free-kick.

Lee Gregory pulled one back moments later and former Stoke striker Fuller, who came on from the bench, netted twice in the last 10 minutes - although Millwall would have to hold on with 10 men.

Shaun Williams was sent off for hauling down Lee Evans as the last man deep into injury time and Jackett insisted his strange return to his former club was tempered by some very average defending.

"I have seen Fuller do that in the Premier League for Stoke, where he wouldn't start the game, but he would consistently affect games off the bench,'' said Jackett.

"Our goals-against column is very high at the moment and that is something that we need to improve on because, if we are going to be successful, you have to be better.

"It was surreal [coming back]. Time has gone quickly and two summers have gone past very quickly. I was very appreciative of the reception that I got from the supporters and staff alike.

"I saw a side that put a lot of pressure on us with diagonal balls and we needed to win headers right the way across our back line.

"Millwall have a fantastic team spirit and, when things get going, the fans really get behind the team. Those qualities are still there as they try to establish themselves and move up the division.''

A day before kick-off it was announced Millwall will don a camouflage kit against Brentford on November 8 as they pay their respects to Remembrance weekend.

And Lions boss Ian Holloway admitted a draw against Wolves was the least they deserved.

"It was really fitting because I've never been so proud of any football club as I was on Friday,'' he said. "It shows the club rewards bravery, honesty and loyalty.

"My players stood there to a man and kept going and a switch of tactics and people helped us. Jimmy Abdou had a great chance in the first half.

"Lee Gregory missed one, Scott McDonald hit the post and we should've had a penalty. They had four shots and everything is going in.

"But we have to keep fighting and be proud of what you stand for. The lads earned their money because they had a right go; they dug in, were brave and always wanted the ball.

"As long as you have got that spirit, which epitomises this wonderful football club, then you have got a chance.

"What we're doing with the soldiers that have fought, got hurt for us and died for us, I want to thank them.''
