That was the sort of Rotherham performance in terms of effort and desire you expect under SE, a lot better. Kelly, Tiehi and Powell were excellent together, it is the little things Kelly does that might get missed by some, he always has space, he is always available and play simple safe passes exactly what we have needed. keep those 3 fit and we will have a decent midfield.
Wilks is a good player you can see that, drifts in and out of a game but he has a lot of confidence. JCH and Nombe put a shift in. Still don't like not having a proper right-back we got caught a few times.
Sending off was correct, penalty not, but I suspect it was because the ref knew he caused their goal by keeping Mccart off the pitch, incorrectly.
Humphries is a class act by the way and we passed the ball a lot more.
Dawson should be in goal
For the pen, the defender grabs Wilks' arm and pulls him down. If the ref saw that I can see why he gave it. Certainly wasn't a trip. Maybe he gave it to even up the McCart issue. If the player is being treated as a result of a carded challenge he does not have to go off.
Fine margins.....similar but better to a few games so far,loads of chances,but no goal,and they go and score after some poor work from Tiehi,but we got what I thought was defo a pen.
I think I counted 12 corners,and 6 or 7 free kicks,and probably 8 or 9 decent chances,they created very little,how on earth have won 3 ?
Front 3 worked well,Wilks will be a great player if he stays fit,but will still have no width,and so I`m afraid we better used to the long ball,`cos we won`t be playing through the midfield very much,but if we take our chances it might just work.
Evans got it right,,,,we got we deserved today.
Well done lads.
Yeah I saw Evans was fist pumping the fans again. Amazing it’s almost because we won 🤣🤣
I think it’s only fair that the manager and the players get credit today. The second half especially was very good
I thought down our left hand side we were really strong.
Well done everyone 👏👏
Think the crowed deserved equal credit. The place was rocking again
Just shows what a bit of positivity can do - NYS was rocking in the final stages and it was all because the players were giving the crowd something to get excited about!
Huddersfield were surprisingly poor. Only Karoma caused us problems. I don't think Phillips made a save?
We played some great football in the second half and even played it out from the back - shock-horror! We have a set of players who are comfortable on the ball and we need to develop some composure and try and build our attacks from a variety of positions. Hoof ball smash and grab doesn't work particularly when your keeper is so poor at directing his clearances.
Finally, I really enjoyed JCH's delight in scoring - it was quite obvious he'd been feeling as frustrated as the rest of us at the lack of goals.
More of the same please. Onwards and upwards!
