    Apart from the final outcome the Tommy Doc period was a good time to watch the Millers.

    More open and entertaining football.

    Ditto the Emlyn Hughes era

    Think the Jack Mansell era was the best for open attacking football but not so good at stopping the opposition.

    Yes indeed.

    I think it was under him that we took Man Utd to a replay in the FA Cup.

    Plus some high scoring home games with a couple of 6s along the way

    It was entertaining for us as well.He had been coaching in Holland and picked up the early ideas that led to
    the total football the Dutch played some years later. Pasing arround the opposision in triangles good to watch
    but he forgot to coach the defense.

    Last few weeks have found some old games on YouTube, watched the home fa cup tie against Leicester in 68 I think, Johnny quin and Dave Watson in docs side. Rod Fern for Leicester.
    The millers v QPR game in 82, Ronnie Moore sent off and two QPR players too. Emlyn got laid out with an elbow. Game finished late due to extra time. Late home for tea.
