    Tom Lawrence. He was the player who got sent off in our 1-0 win. I always thought he was a good player when on loan to us although he's never been prolific. Lampard got his marching orders too

    Klanger Roos is usually on the bench for them

    Unlikley the Zoon will be playing

    Leon Best 3-3

    So on that basis all we need to is find a gypsy and get them to put a curse on all the biased referees that have stolen points of us this season which should soon see us climb the league !

    Think Warney might want to go see them, he’s definitely walked under a ladder

    Agree with this, I feel the players we have are a vast improvement on what we had last time and we only went down by a gnats c**k, we have had bad luck with injuries and some atrocious officials with dodgy watches but it's down to the manager to get his tactics right. He did against Bristol, yes they had an off day but how much of that was due to our play?
    I'm not suggesting we need a change of manager, he will only get better if he allows himself not to be constrained by his preconceptions. The lads can play, the team has strengths use them. Play players in their best positions and trust them not to let you down, if they do well leave them out next time.

    Totally agree. You have to play two up front and take the game to them.

    Hirst for Vassell. Ladapo he's not much better than Vassell.

    Agree that the squad is stronger as a whole than the last attempt to survive in the Chumpship, but I have doubts that we are strong enough in key positions - i.e., the forwards. I can't see them (Smith/Vassel/Ladapo/Hirst) getting 20 goals between them (assuming they are all here at the end of the season).

    The defence is much better and the middle looks potentially good. And I have confidence in the management team to make the best use of the potential.

    One thing is certain, there won't be substantial investment in new players in January. And that isn't intended to be a criticism of the board.

    Reading today regarding Kayode & Tilt to whether Warne will fetch them back in January, Warne said how Rotherham are playing at the back it would suit Tilt, but to fetch them both back & them to watch the game from the bench, would be pointless.
    But what concerned me was that Warne said he would talk to the players & their agents, to whether to have them return to the NYS, to me whats it got to do with the agents, the players are contracted to the Millers, & the club has the say on where the players are placed.

    If he’s talking to agents maybe he wants to move them on, tbh I wouldn’t be surprised by Tilt moving, I’d also say same about Kayode depending which league were in

    To be honest Millertop, for Kayode to be moving on in the January window, it could loose our club a lot of money, I would rather him stay out on loan, & not sell him. I thought Warnes statement was about bringing the players back in to NYS from their loans spells. Kayode has the prospects of being a good player, after a season or two he could hopefully be worth a decent amount of money, which would boost the Millers coffers, I would hate for Carlisle to buy him & make money, ok the Millers could have a sell on fee.
    I think Warne has to be brave fetch Kayode back, & play him, same with Tilt.

    Not impossible at all.
