Matchday Thread - Part 1

[mygiddypant]

In the absence of Le Frog the show, as they say, must go on.

With a new manager making his debut and "relishing" the prospect of his first game will he, by this time next week, be the Messiah, or will MM's 'experts' be crying out for an alternative?

[mygiddypant]

Millers to face Brentford: Camp, Buxton, Rawson, Collins, Mattock; Maguire, Smallwood, Green, D Ward; Clarke-Harris, Derbyshire

[dansk]

Come on you reds. I will go for a 0:2 away win today for the new boss.

[mygiddypant]

Afternoon dansk. Can't beat a bit of optimism - we shall see.

[Brin]

Afternoon everyone….here we go hold on to your hats it's a new ride and let's hope it's a good one!

UTM…..say we are staying up... say we are staying up…...

[mygiddypant]

Here we go. Good luck Neil! Minutes applause for recently departed ex-Chairman (think that's what he said).

[kevthemaltbymiller]

Danny word injured in warm up and replaced by White.

[mygiddypant]

Afternoon brin.

We're off! White has replaced Ward who was injured in warm-up.

[kevthemaltbymiller]

Crap, come on millers

[Brin]

F.uckin hell get a bleeding grip lads!!

[mygiddypant]

Ooops! That wasn't in the Great Plan!

:blue:

[dansk]

2:1, we are going to win 2:1, we ARE GOING TO WIN 2:1...

[mygiddypant]

Derbyshire flicked header tipped over. Corner headed by Collins -wide.

[sota]

Oops, never mind we'll still beat 'em.

[great_fire]

2 bloody minutes in

Now bottom in league :blue:

[mygiddypant]

Derbyshire caught offside. Millers enjoying some control, except when ball hoofed forrard

[mygiddypant]

Maguire effort just wide.

[mygiddypant]

2 bloody minutes in

Now bottom in league :blue:

Familiar story :blue:

[mygiddypant]

Much-traveled loanee John Swift playing today.

[mygiddypant]

MK 1 up.

[kevthemaltbymiller]

Millers with good possession but not creating to much. Come on millers we can win this.

[mygiddypant]

Free-kick to M's. No result.

[sota]

Cheer up, we're all over 'em. We'll win this

[mygiddypant]

Millers pressing, but offside.

[mygiddypant]

Comms excited as White gets into area, but poor finish.

[mygiddypant]

Confusion in Millers defence. Collins clears.

[mygiddypant]

We seem to be bossing possession, but few, if any, clear chances. Corner to Millers - flicked on by Derbyshire, and again, but cleared.

[mygiddypant]

Camp does well to stop dangerous cross.

[mygiddypant]

Wonder what Stevie E is doing on his day off?

[mygiddypant]

Maguire feeds Derbyshire, tight angle, close but...

[kevthemaltbymiller]

Come on millers let's make this pressure count.

[mygiddypant]

JC-H crosses, goes behind.

[dansk]

Another chance goes begging for us as we continue to press for that elusive equalizer.

[mygiddypant]

Brentford pressing, Collins clears. Mattock down injured.

[mygiddypant]

Mattock looks recovered.

[mygiddypant]

Camp saves from "brilliant work" by Swift. Corner taken by Camp.

[mygiddypant]

Comms says Swift wasn't given enough opportunities by Millers. Could be right.

[mygiddypant]

Collins getting lots of mentions. Not heard much of Rawson.

[hillsborough miller]

Too right yet another example of the lack of coaching skills held by the previous management

[mygiddypant]

Brentford pressing - g-kick to Millers. Maguire effort blocked.

[mygiddypant]

Corner to B'ford. Maguire clears, Derbyshire goes down again.

[mygiddypant]

Not looking good for Derbyshire.

[mygiddypant]

We've had a good share of possession, but it's the usual story of us not being very effective in the last quarter. First challenge for Redfearn at half-time.

[mygiddypant]

Time to put the kettle on or grab a bottle.

[kevthemaltbymiller]

Listening on radio doesn't give you a full perspective of the game, but from what I've heard and with the thought that we need to improve going forward I'd expect NR to possibly take Green off and replace him with Andreau and Maguire off for Bowery. What's your thoughts?

[kevthemaltbymiller]

Get in Mattock
