Relegated from the Championship following their 0-1 defeat at home
to Plymouth tonight.

They'll probably win League One next season

Aye, they're up and down between the two divisions.
And that result puts Plymouth just a point behind R*vers.

Funnily enough I am just the opposite. Despite being too young to remember Frank Casper the player, my geography teacher was a Rotherham fan and followed Burnley as his second team since they signed FC… so had many a extra curriculum football chat and have kept an eye on Rotherham ever since.

I remember us getting spanked by them in the FA Cup in the late 90s… never liked them. We don't seem to get decent results against them

Going back to the 80’s I remember a Kevin Hird hat trick against them in a 7-0 win. I’m rubbish at remembering most games, but that one sticks in the memory, in a season of rubbish, made worse by our relegation and Bradford City going up as league winners.

Lost 0-3 in the replay after a 3-3 away draw. They scored an amazing chipped goal down at the cricket field end

There's certainly some truth in that. They even did the league double over us the season we won the fourth division title! :o

Last year they caught a cold playacting trying to protect a 2 1 lead by time-wasting only for Dervisoglu to score a 12th added minute winner
They looked shite v Argyle and a long way off division one winners .Reading are a good bet to win Div 1 next year.

Have a good mate who supports Rotherham so I have a soft spot for them. The Championship to them is like the Premier League to us. They just can’t cope with it.

Didn't they beat us 6-2 at home under Stan too?

They did, with not one, but two ex-clarets in Alan Lee and John Mullin getting two goals each.

Wasn’t an easy watch, Rotherham are truly dire & belong in the league below.
