See some of the old heads of football still wont acknowledge us as a side, we're still little old huddersfield. I bet they didn't talk about Leicester until after they won, even then knowing some of these old heads it was to discredit and say how lucky they were

All they talked about with Leicester was when their bubble was going to burst. It didn't, well last season anyway. Let them keep ignoring us - we'll just keep doing it where it matters.

This reminds me of when Barnsley and Bradford got promoted to the prem. Nobody thought they would but they did.

Well that were bloomin stressful.
It's a great sign when your team isn't playing that well, but still win.
I'm over the moon after that result.
Now I can relax and hopefully enjoy the Man City game. No pressure on us at all.

We are doing a Leicester. Pundits can duly xxxx off. Savage was on 606 with a town fan and he tried to feign interest in us and said he knew nothing about Aaron Mooy. 5 Live & 606 is just a top 4 talking shop. Tonight showed if we hadn't already that we have bottle. Mooy winning the ball back in their half to feed Payne who stepped up with an assist. Hope he gets a run out against City. Smith stepping up as Captain and lashing in the winner. Magic, there is no other word to describe it. UTT

You know what, I was sat there all calm and relaxed last night. Rotherham scored the 1st and I thought to myself...no problem early days,we'll still win this. When they went 2-1 up I still thought we would win it plenty of time left.
As well as Rovrum played last night and credit where it's due I thought they did very well I always thought we had another gear to up. Wagner made the subs I thought he would before the game bringing on VLP, swapping Kachunga back over in front of Smith(what a partnership they have) Payne on for Brown and Wells for Quaner and all of a sudden we've fresh legs running at a tired defence.
33 Shots at goal, many down the keepers throat, some of them blocked and some of them snatched at and even some of them missed when it was easier to score(Kachunga header).
Really looking forward to having a go at Man City International reserve outfit at the weekend but more importantly turning Reading over next Tuesday, 10 point gap on Norwich and a game in hand and as Theo has shown in his latest report, many of those around us have to play each other yet so hopefully we'll keep looking after our own results and let the others do the best to take points off each other.

You have to give Rovrum a lot of credit, they were up for it, targeted our defensive aerial weakness, scored a screamer of a 2nd and went close 2-3 times themselves. We however never gave up, Quaner was quiet / ineffective and needed Wells to come on to add that polish, Lolley unlucky to be subbed scoring a fine equaliser but VLP ran at them to create space, little or no end product as per, Jack gave us energy replacing a booked Izzy who received a mixed response from the 7000 home fans when hooked off.
Great celebrations at equalising, how Kach got in their within the box to nod home I'm unsure, good movement I suspect but Smudgers winner what a finale, only moments before I'd said I would have happliy settled for a point on the balance of play.
They must have blocked a dozen of our shots and crosses they fought for everything on a sticky pitch. Thankfully Waggers got another 10% out of them after a slugglish 1st half with Heffs and Holmes Dennis looking terrible, thankfully the whole team clicked as we upped the gears which is a real sign, 6 points in 4 days not playing fantastic aint bad.
Free hit on Saturday now, look out for the bloke & his kids head on fire in the lower tier 18 yard line with a half half scarfs on sat in front of me ;-)))
