    South Yorkshire derby pride

    With almost nothing to play for, is that fair to put that?, will our lads give absolutely everything tomorrow and run through that 'brick wall' and deliver a win to us suffering Millers fans?

    The likes of Hall and Gore back, Benson if he decides to turn up with one of his wonder games against his old club may just give us that spark that's needed.

    Correctly play Gray up front and not on the wing to partner Nombe and it will not only look better but it may well give us
    that fire power we so badly need and have missed. Afterall, didn't Gary first start up front when he arrived? Hammy sitting him out on the wing has spoilt his game as far as I'm concerned. Thing is Clark has also kept him out on the wing so can someone at the club tell him he's not a winger.

    Stifle McGoldrick and we may well achieve something we've not had for ages.......a very local derby win.

    As bad as we've been, we'll still be there but we are so disappointed with the way the club is being run by this totally incompetent Board and see no hope unless there is a change.

    We've both lost at home to Donny. More like the derby of shame.

    You say two threads on the same subject but you chose to post on this one?

    The other one is how I see it titled...the MATCH thread where I would use that one to post on while the game is live, posting my thoughts and views on how the game is going as I see it.....are you with me so far?

    I mentioned the same three in the middle so you're a copycat as they use to say in school, don't fancy Biancheri though partnering Nombe and Gray, it never works when we play three up front.

    I've never looked at it that way. One reason I used to do a bit of analysis before each game was to encourage conversation prior to the match starting. I used to post it at least 24 hours before kick off but very few people seem interested until the game itself starts. Obviously it doesn't help that the forum is very quiet.

    We'd be better off migrating to a different host and binning off FootyMad, it's the only way to get new users. In my experience it's almost impossible to register on here.

    Yes pre match about a very local derby and not the game in motion itself.

    Heliospan, I for one appreciate you putting up the match thread. Obviously I use it when it's an away game I can't get to and like to comment on what's happening during the game.

    Your correct in saying this site and many others are slowly fading away with a lot choosing not to post anymore but, don't be fooled they don't still look in, they do
