    Very early to say that its a must win game. but, given the mood and, it must be said the happenings since June, there's not much else you can call it. Optimist till the end Millers 4 Cardiff 0. And they say Faith is blind!

    Millers 2-0 Cardiff City

    Frecks will be back, so will Newell.
    Would like to see Will Vaulks back in the side to have another look at him.
    Kelvin Wilson needs to sit this one out and be taken out of the firing line for a while.
    If Richard Wood does not play then AS ought to play the two youngsters Ball and Fry.
    It`s not one they need to win as such but it is one that they need to up their game.
    Here`s to a much better performance.

    If it's the same tactical approach, we'll get the Christmas turkey treatment and Cardiff will get the same kick start to their season that we handed to Blackburn - hope not!

    Agree Casper.

    I think Vaulkes can become someone the Millers fans love. We all love Frecks, but do we all realise the absolutley galvinising effect he has on the players and fans. His attitude is probably the best I have seen from a Millers player. We forgive him his mistakes because he doesn't dwell on them but continues to drive on. I firmly believe that when him and Broadfoot are back we will look much stronger AND the new players will benefit. We could also do with a player like your namesake Casper.

    Frank Casper. The first RUFC game I can remember was a 3:0 against Derby in the mid-60s with Casper, Galley and Chappell scoring. Great days.

    What a player. Scored against Burnley in 1964 and ended up there a few years later. Class act as were quite a few in that mid 60's team. Lyons, Clish, Tiler, Wilcockson. All very good players.

    Definitely fond memories. Add Albert Bennett and Keith Pring and a bit later Jonny "The Mighty" Quinn, Dave Watson and Jim Furnell.

    Could go on, let me see .............. Collin, Skarz, Arnason, Morgan, Frecklington, Pringle, Tavernier, Smallwood, Revell, Agard, Thomas ............. they wa tha days

    Frank Casper would have played more games & probably scored more goals if Albert Bennett had not been the main striker at that time. Don`t Dilly Dally Give the ball to Galley, like you say monty great days.

    The Frank part of my user name is a tribute to my late Grandfather & Father who both took me to my first match at Millmoor in 59. The 64 is when my parents allowed me to go to the away games with " The Lads "
    My grandfather told me not to expect too much from RUFC. If you don`t expect too much they wont let you down too much.
    He also told me if I didn`t enjoy football / sport in general then walk away....why make yourself miserable.
    Enjoy the day out home or away.

    Millers 2-0 Cardiff City. I only get 1 or 2 predictions right per season......lets hope this is one of them.
