We did ok first half but something was missing, yes Smith needed to come on and Warney did well in fetching him and the others on early
Olosunde needs to wear a middle guard I think
First time we had ref who gave us four cards (deserved some) but laughable how he didn’t think they needed one.
Motm poll
Ladapo
Smith
Angus
Barlaser
Strange poll that imo, I’ve voted Ladapo but Viktor should have been a contender surely.
Robbo would’ve got mine
No I wasn’t surprised we got the points but I was expecting the score line
Well done lads

Hungry dogs run faster.
Going the goal down last night changed the game - or changed the phychology of the game.
At 0-0 we were cautious as we still had a point to hang on to.* At 0-1 down we were staring relegation down the barrel and it forced a reaction. QPR players are already planning tjeir holidays. It was all about character rather than systems, like I said pre match.
Well done to all at RUFC.
The week of death is rapidly turning into the week of life
From the moment John Breckin said that he's fisted Warney just before kick off you knew something different was going to happen last night. Probably the best blunder by any Rotherham United comms ever.
Don't know if Warne knew what was happening but I didn't see him sit down all match.
I enjoyed the match and I thought Warne had got it spot on with his team selection. I mentioned tother day that we have an inbalance of quality midfielders but those midfielders were key to our success last night. 2 lots of quality midfielders worked a treat and turned the game.
Absolutely right that their goal changed the game WanChai, because it was looking like both teams were fairly happy with a draw until then, I know I would have taken a point. However Coventry will be a much sterner test tomorrow, and they will be well up for it, but we not only managed to win yesterday, we also managed to give all of our important players a game without really knackering them, which gives me confidence for tomorrow UTM
Robbo hope he can keep fit he's classiest of our centre backs but Angus he's been reliable there for a while. Icky same, mostly. One thing from last night showed in games we target a win got to start with your strongest side. From last night would be Barlaser Lindsay Wing midfield 3. Smith up front with either Ladapo or Crooks.
QPR fans blaming our pitch and calling us thugs on twitter takes the piss. The pitch is like a bowling green and one of their players kicked Robertson off the ball and Charlie Austin is banned for violent conduct.
Even their manager said that they should do better against "The way we play"
Just pains them to give us any credit whatsoever. If Pukki and Cantwell had scored goals of that quality last night they would be purring over them being premier league class.
Bring on Coventry. can we play them tonight?
Absolutely agree about Robertson, best CB, just have to keep him fit for a few weeks and it will help immensely. Not that our other CBs have been terrible but still.
Smith and Ladapo is a strange one. When one starts and the other is on the bench and comes on they work really well and can be an absolute handful for defenders. When they start together it doesn't seem to work, absolutely no idea why, just my observation. It is like bringing the other one on sparks them into life as they finally have someone to work with but why they don't generally do well playing from the off together I don't know.
Love the options in the midfield, Wing only having to play 30 minutes last night was great, getting an hour out of S Mac. With clever rotation before and in game we can manage this backlog. We are managing it. Said it before, 5 subs may be our greatest friend this season...
