RedAlex Posted March 25, 2006 Report Share Posted March 25, 2006 Can't say I have all week knowing we're playing them. Any other time I'd feel bad for them but with all this Fans Days rubbish I had a feeling this would happen.We seem to get everytime at the worst possible time, with only a few exceptions...Oh good bloody Yeovil are winning now too! :@ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chappers Posted March 25, 2006 Report Share Posted March 25, 2006 Rotherham surviving is far more important to the football World than any single result..... unless it sets us off on a bad run and we get relegated!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kiwicolin Posted March 25, 2006 Report Share Posted March 25, 2006 sounds as though our players treatedit as an end of season game.We are almostsafe in mid table but still need to pick upa few more points.Time for a reminderof that and bring in the yeovil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolman_Dave Posted March 27, 2006 Report Share Posted March 27, 2006 As far as I am concerned they don't need any help from anyone if they have Sheffield Utd bankrolling them.They have given money to Rotherham and let them have Jonathan Forte on loan and he was the main difference between the two sides. He showed everything that we are looking for - pace, strength and ability. Made Carey and Fontaine look like non-league defenders.The ground, particularly the away end is a disgrace too. Never been to an away ground where so many people have taken videos on their mobiles to prove to their mates how bad it was!!!Mind you, it blends into its surroundings well. The area around the ground looked like it had taken a direct hit from a scud missile!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolman_Dave Posted March 27, 2006 Report Share Posted March 27, 2006 Once you were in the away end, it was'nt that much worse than any other old ground in our league. From behind the stand though, you got the impression that the ground has not been used for years. The toilets were a Portakabin, the catering was a caravan (very good but scaldingly hot pies by the way!) , the stand roof was almost rusted away and the concrete looked like it had been patched up hundreds of times. Looked really funny how their new stand was not even half built and there were people using it!The entrance and exit arrangements for the away end were awful. On the way in you walk down this dingy lane with high walls either side - a bit like at Watford but worse. On the way out they make you walk miles away from the ground and through a dilapidated industrial estate. Its so grim it looks just like the sort of deserted wasteland type place they used to film the violence scenes in Green Street and the Football Factory!! Would'nt fancy having to walk through there after a night game.Then again I've not been to Colchester! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolman_Dave Posted March 27, 2006 Report Share Posted March 27, 2006 That really got on my t*ts after a while! Reckon even one of those kids could have written a better song than that!The one consolation I took from the afternoon was that at least I don't have to live there!!
