    But barring us being 3 - 0 up, I feel like being 1 down is the best position for us.

    Swansea won't be able to play like they did in front of their fans, slowing things down & sitting back. They'll open up a bit & give us some chances. We saw enough yesterday to know there's absolutely nothing to fear from them but they are incredibly organised, professional & they outdid us there - not in football IMHO.

    Didn't think I'd be that arsed about being back - I absolutely was. Loved it.

    Only thing is if they open up they have the players to take the chances they will create.

    I think they'll sit back and try to keep it tight .

    Cooper may be in a quandary now as to how he approaches Saturday.

    We just need to go for it from the off and be positive.

    We need them to freeze and get caught in two minds and score two quick goals whilst they get into gear.

    I'm going to stick my neck on the block and say Morris looks better off the bench.

    I don't necessarily agree, but even if he was only 80% as effective when starting I'd still take Morris at 80% over Frieser, Chaplin or Victor

    I feel the same as a Rotherham supporter right now. We know we need to go to South Wales and win. We also know that based on the first leg result and performance we couldn't hit a Camel's ar53 with a Banjo :)

    We've history of playing well in the away legs of play offs, this is far from over, any of the previous results from the away legs will do me.

    Love Morris. He’s the whole box of tricks and must be horrible to defend against, he can dribble, he’s combative and very skilful.

    Not sure who the referee is on Saturday but if we get a weak one then Swansea could run away with it - Ayew and co will be diving around all over the place and the crowd will pressure a weak ref for sure - need to score first I think, if not, it could be a long day at the office
