IN light of recent successes both on and off the pitch, the Lions' management duo of Dennis Wise (inset) and Ray Wilkins have both been offered one year contract extensions on their current deals at The New Den.

The pair, who made history when they became the first-ever Millwall managers to guide the south London club to the FA Cup final and into the UEFA Cup, signed the new contracts at the end of last week.

Millwall chief executive Ken Brown said: "We're delighted Dennis and Ray have decided to pledge their futures to the club for another year. We firmly believe we're making real progress under their leadership, and their commitment ensures an important level of stability in light of the fact that the chairman will be standing down at the end of the current season."
