    Id love Rotherham to stay up.

    But after seeing them today I don’t know how they can. Get the ball into cracking positions but my god their strikers are awful. Like really really poor. Some of their chances today couldn’t have been made any simpler for the attackers.

    As I said though, I genuinely hope they can manage it and send those two cheating basket cases down!

    They were unlucky that the goal was given, but they’ve only themselves to blame for not getting at least a point. You can’t be that wasteful and expect to get anything from a game.

    No disrespect, mate, but I think that’s unfair. They rebuilt & have competed well, above their means. A lot like us. & that was us last season, in that position. We’ve done well, of course. But a bit of modesty, reminds us who we are. :)

    I get that Bud, but they are....... Rotherham! Local (which is enough reason to dislike them) and I got a load of grief in recent years when they were a Division above us. You’d think they were just slightly less than Barcelona according to some of their deluded fans.
    It never feels ‘natural’ when they are above us, so just a return to the natural order for me.

    We’re not really any that different to Rotherham, Donny etc. Maybe 10% bigger in the football business. Same as us, they & Donny desperately needed to rebuild their grounds.
    We set up 25 years ago with a good academy, which was envied & copied by big premiership clubs. & more recent recruitment policy is also paying off. Your more intelligent Sheffield Wednesday fan is all too aware of this.
    & if you look at it hard enough, we can trace this back through Patrick & current owners to John Dennis. & that’s why I respect that fella.:)

    It’s a global beautiful game. An international language which unites people & breaks borders. Every little community deserves it’s football club, on whatever level. Could be shitsville South Yorkshire or Siberia. Back of beyond? Still football.:)

    Every club has deluded fans. Look at me. I must have seen 5-600 footballers come through Oakwell the last 43 seasons & I thought they were all potential world beaters.!! I’m the most delusional of the lot. :)

    No such thing as the natural order; that kinda talk makes ya sound like a Wednesday fan.

    And no one wants to end up being compared to that.

    Your Rovrum mates might have behaved like nobs, but that doesn’t excuse us doing the same.

    I think there are only 2 of us in Wentworth. Most Millers or Sheffield. & an Accrington Stanley fan, bizarrely. :)
