I spoke yesterday to a bloke I went to school with who is a big Rotherham fan and he said they'd sold about 900 tickets. He said he wasn't going tomorrow, for the first time since 1981, for the same reason that they haven't sold many tickets. Apathy!
He said the Rotherham fans were resigned to going down, especially under Redfearn, although he did say they might have found a bit more belief after winning last week. He said they'd signed a tricky winger on loan and that if we play aerial balls up to the front he thinks their centre halves will dominate. I did question this as one of them is Richard Wood, formerly of this parish and not remembered as being a monster in the air.
Anyway, I said I was nervous about dropping points to them but he said most of their fans were expecting to lose. I hope he's right!
