    Is it time for the Chairman to hold an interview?

    There is currently a bubbling under feeling at the moment and it's mainly directed at Matt Hamshaw.

    How about Tony Stewart conducts an interview, not with Paul Davis but say Radio Sheffield where real questions are asked? No disrespect to Paul but it's time for some non scripted questions to be asked.

    We are in a pivotal situation at this point of the season. Let's be honest, the injury list we have had to deal with is totally unprecedented this season and one we we have never encountered, well certainly not while I've been a fan.

    That aside, I feel it would be beneficial to us fans, the ones that pay to be entertained to be told exactly what are the plans going forward under his tenure. Is it a two year plan while Matt gets established and learns his new Management role or, is he planning to sell up asap and the pot is empty come the January window?

    A statement could/would allay fears fans may have about the future of our club and put to bed. All we ask for his clarity, honesty and integrity should a meeting ever take place.

    They say silence is golden but come on Tony let us know what's really happening.

    Yes I’ve seen the comments of Morrison stating the training ground went months without hot water, goes on to say the club is a shambles and the training ground was worse than a dog walking field….. should we believe him?

    I've never listened to the Under The Cosh podcast but I understand he says it on there. It must be true in my eyes, players don't make things up like this. Besides, didn't Matt Taylor say something similar?

    If true, then this is an absolute disgrace of epic proportions. Is it any wonder players don't want to come here when they hear things like this, because they will do. This is non league crap. We may as well be Worksop ****ing Town if we can't give players hot water after a training session.

    Totally agree Brin but not Radio Sheffield! They are obsessed with giving TS and MH a way out with this being a “transition” year. What does that even mean? Are Donny is a transition year and is relegation ok for them?

    We are a team in transition,we are moving away from the Evans style, to something more akin to what fans would expect from a Rotherham team,the manager has stated this from day one.
    Hamshaw is a rookie manager, this is first job so is bound to make mistakes, very few can do what Paul Warne did,this is more normal, so it depends on whether you're prepared to give him time to get it right, or bin him off in his first season.
    Ronnie Moore took 3 seasons to get us out of the 4th division.
    In answer to Brin,something from the chairman would be good, especially what his long term plans are,but some respect for the man from some of our fans would also be good.
    Mr Stewart will step down one day, maybe very soon, what comes next is ***** to our future, for every one Rob & Ryan,you get 20 Chansiri's.

    So, not Paul Davis and not Radio Sheffield. Who then? Let's be honest, no other media outlet give a sh*t.

    Totally agree but some forget warne got us relegated the first season (didn't get blamed by millers fans) and also in his 3rd season. Well that's because it was the championship.
    People will always interpret things differently and have a different opinion but you also get those who just like to stir the pot for the sake of it. then once the manager turns things around they disappear from the forum or say. Things like. I will eat humble pie which is always followed by BUT...

    Yorkshire Post?

    They seem to do a decent write up on us and not being totally local like the Tizer and Radio Sheffield, will probably ask the questions that the Tizer and Radio Sheffield dare not. They won't feel bad if Tony kicks them out of the NYS for being too searching.

    Anyway, will this meeting ever take place?
