    Today feels like a Wembley final.

    Really got a big feeling for tonight's game and, it really could be the downfall game for either team.I don't think massive even describes it!

    Whatever happens with the result, it isn't fully over for us whereas for Coventry it may start their demise from the Championship. Thing I'd really like to see is Derby going down with Weds, now that would be better.

    Talking of Weds, it's the first time I've heard Andy Giddings describe Weds performance as 'Rubbish' and he proper meant it. Is he a Weds fan? Sounded really down taking about their game against Swansea

    Back to our lads tonight, we don't know if they read this site but, feel free to add your best wishes for tonight in case they do, and let them know we're fully behind them.

    COME ON LADS YOU CAN DO IT!!!!!!!

    The less we think of this as a huge cliffhanger game which we must and should win the better. There was too much of that v Wycombe and the next results showed that other games can yield points too. For me, the important thing is to organise collectively as we do against bigger names, keep it tight at the back and biting in midfield and slowly press forward as the game goes on but knowing that with our games in hand, and a few games against mid table mental holiday teams, the important thing is to not let Coventry get further ahead. Not saying defend by any means, but just focus on keeping the shape and keeping the midfield bite to disrupt them getting into any flow.

    Good luck lads - get at em! achtung!

    In the words of Ian Hunter " look inside you did not borrow " all we can ask. I'm feeling this is the biggest game probably since last time at Wembley. If I think about the game tonight it makes me tense so just want it to kick off. A massive UTM.

    Giddings is a Halifax fan,he wasn't exactly complimentary about the Millers either the other week, he's a bit of a tit really.

    We have one of the worst home records in the league, and they have one of the worst away records. Sounds like a draw?

    Important that we don't go a goal down early on. Keep it tight and conservative for the first quarter and then be more expansive. But remember, to quote Brecks "keep the back door shut".

    Now where did I leave my lucky Wembley underpants?

    Yep. Would be daft to go gung ho to start with. Be patient and build the momentum a bit like against QPR. Have some game changers on the bench if poss.


    Agree with Brin it does feel a bit like a Wembley play off final and generally we have done ok with them. Worrever the result it aint over one way or the other. We have to keep getting points fromthe other games left.

    Good luck Millers. Lets get out of that bottom 3 toneet and stay out of em.

    All of the above and I don't mind admitting that I'm bricking it already. Play smart lads but be bold, don't let fear take over, be brave in all aspects. Always good to remember they will feel like the hunted and will be bricking it as much as we are, more so with having played more games. Use it.

    If we end the evening on a points tally beginning with 4 I'll be content but always play to win which I'm sure we will.

    I agree with all of this but, if we end tonight with a goal difference of -10 or better................
