    Different expectations at Derby no history with them so the pressure will be on.
    We have to change it up next game play 2 up front or change style.
    Patience can’t last forever with MT.
    Warne rarely blamed the players publicly MT distances himself too much when things go wrong.
    I think Warne tbf managed the media so much better when we played poorly.
    Hopefully MT looks at the last couple of performances and recognises 1 up front simply doesn’t work.

    When we have 3 strikers up front do we look more threatening? I'd suggest not.

    Why? Same issue as when 1 up top. Supply.

    We desperately need to sort out the midfield, and it will go hand in hand.

    We are ok on the right but left Ferguson he's on his last legs. Bramall not for me. Fosu same. Got to hope Leo he's back on his game.

    The club will have some decisions to make regarding ticket sales for the rearranged game
    Those with existing tickets get in free perhaps or everyone pays again including season ticket holders
    Half price maybe as we only witnessed half a match.

    There are costs to put on a football match including the expenses of the away team so I won’t be expecting it to be free entry for those that attended first time
    Contrary to what the Cardiff fans and their press are saying it wasn’t Rotherham,s fault so why should Tony soak …ahem…up the cost

    The Millers performance in the first half deserved no merit, team totally disorganised.
    MT got it wrong in the team selection, with only playing one upfront, Hugill needed a
    another striker alongside him.
    Humphrey's best player in the Millers side, lose him to injury & we are in trouble.
    Cardiff City will feel aggrieved with the game being abandoned, with them completely
    in control of the game, they could have won by three goals easily.
    MT must now see that playing with the lone striker is not working, & change the set
    up accordingly.

    You may be right ELK - they may have won by 3 goals easily - - - - don't forget though MT took Fergie off just before halftime to put Lindsay into midfield for that bit more ' bite'.
    Then he took Peltier & Odoffin off to put Kioso & Kelly on start of second half.
    Kelly to play alongside Hugill perhaps??
    A bit more attacking flair from right back Peter Kioso maybe??
    Seemed to me MT new it wasn't working & decided to change it.

    Could well have been a completely different 2nd half to the 1st half.

    It was a strange tactical game MT was playing.

    9 / 11 players in the central 1/3 of the pitch and yet we somehow seemed worse in the middle than I've seen in a while.

    No width, no intention to exploit the left, back line a complete calamity.

    1 up front does not work. We've established this and been relegated twice doing it.

    Told my mate and lad at the HT whistle "We need a miracle to win this"

    Went for a pee, came back out and heavens had opened and pitch was half flooded.

    I rest my case.


    May have already been touched on but imagine the outcry if we beat them on the re-match (25th April ?) and put them down.

    As for the game we were worse than poor.

    Get out of Jail card well and truly used.
