" It could have been more than 5-0 & my players will be in at 7am tomorrow now, it was a poor performance from start to finish, & I can't put my finger on why the centre halves didn't want to put their head in, why the strikers couldn't hold it up or take their chances & why the midfield didn't create."
"Its totally, totally unacceptable & I've got to get to the bottom of why the players didn't perform with pride, & why they've embarrassed themselves to the fans."
Good comments from the opposing manager, but today the Millers were up for it, & they didn't allow Southend to settle, the Millers getting in for the ball in midfield, & forever probing the away defence, & today scoring goals from the chances made.
