    I get your point WLB but there are many ways of looking at this. Firstly, I really like Matt Taylor and if we should get relegated why should TS not stick with him when he allowed Warne THREE goes at it? Taylor is intelligent,honest and has no time for cheap jokes and deflective 'one liners!' I think he is far more tactically aware than Warne. The World Cup break can't come quick enough for us because of the torrid run of fixtures he have inherited but there is so much hope ahead.What about all the other teams around us within 3 points either way? That's half the League and I get the impression that all those teams don't seem as petrified of relegation as we are because they don't seem to have a bout of 'Stockholm Syndrome', with relegation being their captor! We have shown enough this season,even in defeat, to be more than capable of stopping up and when the league resumes in mid December,even then,there is so much more football to be played.

    I have no doubt Taylor will be here next season o believe he is actually doing well.

    Maybe the teams below us don't fear relegation as much because they are established teamsw?

    With players capable at playing at the standard all round .

    If not they have the January window to try and fix things. Have we??

    On past record no we haven't.

    I expect us to be in a relegation fight but we have actually have a team with a couple off championship additions can easily be safe

    Yes, if we don't survive, I feel like I've seen and heard enough to think Matt Taylor should be given the opportunity to build again. The truth is that any Rotherham manager is going to have to climb mountains in surfing gear - until and unless a Sugar Daddy comes along.

    If Matty Taylor doesn’t climb the mountain in his poundland gear, he will get the sack.

    He won’t die.
