    What a crap set up it is these days! Just seems like they play whoever, whenever. Playing the same four or five teams over and over.
    I remember when the reserves used to play against Liverpool reserves, Man Utd reserves etc and games were played at the proper stadiums not training grounds. 😩

    I agree. It's not even our "real" reserves for some of those games. Most (all?) of the losses above (red boxes) were the development squad. I wonder if the senior Millers squad has been away to a training camp this week, or even given a few days off! Must be some logical explanation.

    I wouldn't have risked any of the squad for this game. I don't think that the squad itself would have done anything other than the basic warm ups/downs and set plays. They certainly wouldn't want tiring out at all afteer the week they've just had and the next 9 days which have the 3 ***** matches..

    My word I'm Shyting it for the next weeks matches but I hope they have what it takes to get the 2 wins needed.

    PW actually contacted us about putting out a MM XI for this game but the logistics of getting all the expats back were too much. I'm sure with CT in goal we wouldn't have lost 9-0.

    Totally agree and especially with three rows o' tulips in front of his goal area to disrupt the opposition from scoring.....
