Millwall managing director Andy Ambler has claimed that West Ham's players won't be looking forward to facing the League One side when they meet in the Carling Cup later this month.

Ambler, who will no doubt be secretly delighted at pulling a money-spinning away tie from the hat told southlondon-today.co.uk: "This is a chance for Kenny Jackett's emerging side to test themselves against Premier League opposition.

"We are all looking forward to his squad showing off what they can do - though our players will be looking forward to it more than theirs will."

Ambler, a former Business Operations director with Fulham joined Milwall in 2007 added that he felt the game would be televised live due to it being a rare occurence these days, with the two sides being literally leagues apart.

"I would like to think the TV cameras will want to be there," he said, "because it is a long time since we played each other."

Reaction to the draw from the Hammers camp to follow.
