I have to agree. And, much as I don't like the AFC Wimbledon lot that much, (they were very determined that I should boycott watching my team just to make a point about theirs), I have even less time for the MK Dons. As a club they represent a great many things English football shouldn't become.
Cheers

The New Den still has Millwall fans in it so it's not going to be the most family-friendly ground but other than that it's a generic plastic ground put on a parking lot next to the railway. Unless you're a Millwall fan or your lot are playing Millwall there's really no particular reason to go there. The old Den at least was so derelict and notorious that going there had a certain coolness factor to it.

With all due respect, the old Garden doesn't even come close. If you hadn't experienced Millwall fans close up back in those days, it is hard to get across just how awful they were. They are slightly better these days, but just don't scratch the surface too hard.
