    Football is a confidence game,which was back once we scored,but we are a frigile team on a terrible run,a win on Tuesday is a must.


    What did Gray do apart from cutting inside? Their equaliser showed you how's it done getting on the outside defence splitting cross in taken well. We were hardly a threat most of the game. Need Gore back in midfield. If we're going to play with wing backs need one on the right who can defend as well as getting forward.

    Today was a must win game never mind Tuesday.
    The first half was just aimless balls up top and when we did win it which wasn’t often we didn’t win the second balls.
    That tactic is on the manager.
    Second half changed the formation we looked good but switched back again and shock horror we conceded.
    He cost us today he’s literally getting away with taking us down another level.
    The fact it’s a positive we didn’t lose sums up how much some of you will accept because it’s MH.
    Some fans are happy with relegation because it’s good old Matt from Rawmarsh.
    You reap what you sow/accept and some of you will accept anything from this stubborn arrogant man because you happen to like him.

    It would be very easy to lay into a man that is in a job he doesn?t have the ability to do, in fact that could be quite a few people at RUFC. We didn?t lose, so he now knows that his record as the manager that led us to the worst string of results at this level stands at seven.

    Martha wasn?t as bad as previously when he came on. Jules was excellent and showed why recruiting another center back was pointless, a player that MH has told the local press he is happy to see move on this week!! We see yet again that playing three at the back is a disaster when other teams play fast wide players, because there is often a gap behind the wing backs for them to exploit.
    They did and crossed and his CB agbaire lost his man and they score from a cross and simple header.

    We play two good forwards in gray and nombe, they like it to feet or for them to run onto wide, so our coaches yet again plays the ball long in the air down the middle all the first half. When we start to play the ball on the floor or down the wings we score and look good, not hard Matt. The subs were forced on him, Kaleta got a knock and signaled to the bench ten minutes before he went off and Spence was forced off with cramp or another injury, same with Nombe. However it is MH that decided to sent Ayres out and you cannot tell me that Ayres would be worse than Hugill for 15 minutes, how slow was Hugill to move to that chance at the near post?

    No idea why yearwood went off I assume it is an injury he did ok, not brilliant but ok. Being he knew he would have had to take kaleta and Spence off before the end, due to their current fitness, why not plan for that and have yearwood on the bench to come on and start with Martha wide like he did in the second half. Our players are not fit and recovering from injuries doesn?t appear to be very good, so we have a failing manager a failing coach and a failing fitness coach, a COO that doesn?t seem to know what is happening and a chairman that doesn?t seem bothered. Remember we have been told by PD that neither the manager or fitness coach have raised as an issue the fact we do not have full time physios helping players stay fit or recover, and yet our key players cannot last a full game.

    As for the times we played well today it was 10 mins at the start of the first half and 15 mins at the start of the second, so 25 mins out of 100 mins, in a game we really had to win. 25% of the game we did wel but as I said at the start, the good news is we did not lose.

    For several months I've been saying the dumplings in the dugout are taking us down and we need a new goalkeeper
    I'm still right.
    The substitutions cost us the game. We should not be defending a slim lead at home out of fear and needless to say it backfired
    How much longer do we have to suffer this managerial ineptitude?
    There are far better candidates out there

    Two teams today. The team that can keep us up and, post -substitutions, the team that can't.
    We really needed that second goal during that four attempts scramble, but sadly it wasn't to be.
    Disappointed with the booing from the kop, maybe if they put that much effort into actually encouraging the players....

    Oh yes it’s now the fans fault. Booing is the main issue now.
    Where is the MH millers mad cult tonight.
    Surely you’ve all got loads to say about our dynamic play and the tactical genius.
    No well what about the brilliant substitutions.
    Come on tell us deluded idiots who dare to criticise were wrong.

    Don't worry, they are never far away.

    I've just listened to Bobo's post match interview and apparantly we should have been 3 or 4 up in the second half. FFS what is he on?

    I backed the millers today ?20 @ 6/4. When hamshaw made the Kelly substitution I cashed out. As been posted. First 11 looked capable of getting us to 50 points. Subs only make is weaker

    So, I assume all who are complaining today, were not doing so when as pointed out, we were 1-0 up with different players. If those subs were forced, then the vitriol which is being written is in part unwarranted.

    I am neither in favour or against. There is more in play here than a manager.

    I think the nail on the head there. No manager willingly starts changing a leading side that early in the half unless has to.
