Millwall’s chairman James Berylson told the club’s official website: "We welcome both Joe and Andy to The Den with open arms and look forward to seeing the impact they can make on and off the pitch throughout what we hope to be a long relationship with Millwall."

Myers made a total of 97 appearances in all competitions for Bradford, representing the club between 1999 and 2003.

His move to Millwall has been made on the same day as a change in the dugout at Valley Parade.

Myers’ former employers have appointed Graham Alexander as their new manager having axed Mark Hughes last month.
