McGhee: Why I left Millwall

Mark McGhee says he left Millwall because chairman Theo Paphitis wanted to pick the team.

The former manager returns to The Den with Brighton for the first time tomorrow, 14 months after leaving.

McGhee guided Millwall to the old Second Division championship and took them into the play-offs for a place in the Premiership before his relationship with Paphitis broke down.

The Scot said: "I was not prepared to compromise. Once he started to bring pressure on my team selection it was not going to work."

Millwall will be without the suspended Kevin Muscat.
