I suppose we better have one as the last rites are performed on this awful season. I guess a win would be nice but I don't expect much activity on this thread as no doubt most will be answering the call of Meadowhall this afternoon![]()

I suppose we better have one as the last rites are performed on this awful season. I guess a win would be nice but I don't expect much activity on this thread as no doubt most will be answering the call of Meadowhall this afternoon![]()
A lot of questions about this final match of the season.
Will the players be up for this one?
After hearing rumours about players' wages, and they're just rumours, they may throw the towel in early and give up the ghost.
Just checked with Paddy Power. Current odds are....
Rotherham 6/1 to win.
Wycombe odds on at 4/9 to win.
A draw 17/5
We will win today. 2-1
Having a bet? Decent odds 6/1. I'm gonna be on.
Archie Gemmill and John McGovern were joint managers when Rotherham first met Wycombe, Martin O'Neill managing Wycombe. The Endsleigh Second Division match at Millmoor took place in January 1995 and goals from Andy Hayward and a Steve Brown own goal gave Rotherham a 2-0 win.

How the fortunes of the clubs changed.
Sadly, we needed to win 16-0 to be promoted to the top division on goal average.
I've taken odds of 11/2 this morning on a Miller's win.
J Holmes & Martha both starting good job there's nothing to play for!
