In the 2000–01 season, Millwall controversially sacked joint managers Keith Stevens and Alan McLeary in September, stating that the club didn't believe Stevens and McLeary could meet Millwall's target goal.[1] Ray Harford was appointed caretaker manager on a temporary basis and it seemed possible that he might be given the job permanently, but Mark McGhee was named as their replacement[2] and eight months later the club won promotion as Division Two champions after five years in the lower tier of the league.[3]
