Tracking shares bought years ago

I bought £200 of shares as a bit of a punt with my friends back in 1998/9 in Millwall Holdings PLC. I had completely forgotten about them until now!!!!
Last letter I had with any info was in 2002 from Hoffman Philips and I've moved house 3 times since then
Can anyone advise me on what to do to track the details down as I don;t have any other paperwork that I can see?
Thanks

The Company Registrars appear to be Computershare Investor Services PLC, The Pavilions, Bridgwater Road, Bristol, BS99 6ZY
http://www.millwallholdingsplc.co.uk/51074%20Millwall%20circular%2012pp%20.pdf might be of interest - details of the Company Secretary are here too.0 -
Fairly sure the share price dropped to around 0.1p and, in some sort of restructure, the small shareholders got shafted and their holdings became worthless.0

Thanks for the replies. Will have a read through but on an initial glance appears they would be worthless now0

Millwall will delist soon though they are saying its possible to sell off market. The guy running it is also the person lending them money which he is then using to issue large amounts of equity to himself which means the shareholders are increasing owning not much.
My thoughts on reading the article is that if you are a supporter anyway it might be worth sticking while they are off market in the hope this new guy running it turns it around. However he may just continue to squeeze everyone else out, it did sound like he has a canny plan. Bondholders are kings when companies need that money, thats just how it is0
