I thought I'd respond to the promotion form comment. Yes, that may well be the case in terms of points won (and I accept that football is about winning games) but the reality is that we haven't played well. If you're a neutral watching our games against Barnsley, Leyton Orient and Bradford, you're wondering how on earth Rotherham have come out of those games with 7 points. The only recent league game we deserved to win was Northampton. Even Man City U21s should have been out of sight by halftime.
Results like the Burton game are going to happen regularly because performance levels just aren't there and we rarely dominate teams. It's frustrating to watch and the latest raft of injuries are adding to that frustration. How many more times are we going to see this team limp through games with issues in central defence?
I'm hoping Benson is fit to start on Saturday and either Agbaire or one of the others to start alongside Douglas in that defence. We'll get beat on Saturday if we use the same line up.
