Right let's get one thing straight here, we were beaten by the better team. We didn't have a chance to play our own game on our own surface by a pumped up Rotterdam side. Only ourselves to blame in the thick of it, too many of our players stood by the wayside and let the Millers roll us over. I kept saying whilst doing the commentary that Rotherham were the best side to come to Saltergate this season even better than Tranmere.

Impressive players such as Stephen Brogan & Chris O'Grady who's work rate was magnificent were the key to The Millers success. They came out of the blocks from the start and took it to us and before we knew it we were one down and they just kept coming. Mark Hudson got his traditional booing from the Kop and the rest but to be fair he played well as did all of his team-mates.

For us I was disappointed with Robertson last night, I felt he was a rabbit caught in the headlights against his former employers. The Service to Ward wasn't effect enough and when a cross came over for Fletcher to head he pushed it wide...overall it wasn't good enough from us and we need to check the why fors? and the whatfors? later as we have Bradford coming around like the new East Midlands from Sheffield, best time to play them really but it's a game we need to win and can we honestly do it?

Fingers crossed we pick up in the second half of the season, I hope and rally hope that by the time we enter South Yorkshire in March we will have kicked into gear, because I feel at the minute we are taking one step forward one back and as Rotherham will testify they are flying at the moment but let's hope it's not too soon, good luck to them.

Sadly the only Tornado that we saw was the Millers ripping through us...It's a Twister Aunty Em!
