Southampton Post Match Comments

Did you go?. I watched it and Fred had a good game for the time he was in the action. It was a great result against a full on Southampton eleven.

Agreed, I went and he played well. Went to 5 at back and that was puzzling. But great game, electric atmosphere great performance. Mom for me the flying swede

Much, much better defensively.

Need to sort the front out now and ditch the 4-3-3.

Was releaved to see Fred coming off.

Freddie was taken off for tactical reasons, not because of his performance. You may have known that though
One of quite a few tweaks MT made to keep us in the game

Absolute tactical master class from MT once he knew we were still in it. Soton defenders had been coasting all match and when all the changes were made they didn’t know how to deal with it , made mistakes and shat themselves for the last 15 mins
With a bit of luck and guile we could have sneaked it

Big shout out the the travelling fans, fantastic vocal following

Very sad to hear MT intimate in post match interviews that he feared the worse today in terms of his future. Perhaps it might help if some people laid off him and backed him and the team instead like 1100 of us did today. It’s cost us a small fortune but worth every penny

That was a great result, well done to the players and manager. It would have been so easy to collapse after the early goal, we rode our luck and relied on victor but we have been owed a bit of good fortune. If we are honest we could have been 3-0 down at HT but it is a typical Russel team, lots of tip tap and not much end product. What a difference it makes having a real CB there in Hall also I thought Peltier was outstanding. Great goal by Hugill and the best bit of the match was in injury time his dive to win a foul near the touch line. I think dropping him was a clever decision, also thought Kelly put a real shift in when he came on and agree with the comments about Appiah. Very happy that we showed real fight and desire against a big club, we now need to use the two weeks to get some more fit and build on that.

Spot on DM, great post
Georgie was immense when he came on - he made the goal by running onto the flick on and forcing the mistake
Appiah looked good too
Will taylor learn from this? Or will he revert to type?
This is his big chance - I'm praying that he learns...but I wouldn't bet on it

Great goal from Hugill, which was made by having 2 up front. Hugill won the header then Kelly forced their defender to clear the ball which fell to Hugill to finish.

Not Hughbill today then?

Can’t help having a dig at another poster can you? Pathetic, grow up.
I don’t use that term, the one I used was referring to the style of football played at home, the long ball to a loan striker, and as I said on a previous post it is a reference to the style of football not the player. I am still not a fan of his, but I am quite happy to be proven wrong, if he scores goals and plays like he can and not fighting all the time. I don’t want any Rotherham player to fail, or any manager, the club comes first. That doesn’t mean I won’t comment on a discussion board, that is the purpose of the board.

That's Brin. I think they call it "I have the power these days". Shake my head at his comment.

CAM is in UK on family business and asked me to launch the comments post. We’re fighting for our lives as I write this. What do we think?

One job…….you’ve called it comments instead of thoughts..🤣..
