It will be two new grounds in a matter of days for me.

2-0 comfortable win. If we can't beat these then we deserve to be relegated.

Really annoyed Huddersfield isn't on a weekend. One ground I really wanted to get to.

Injury update

The loss of Bacuna follows injuries suffered by winger Andre Green (hamstring), midfielder Gary Gardner (twisted ankle) and Scott Hogan (ankle ligaments).

"Andre will be at least a month and Gary will not make this weekend," added Bruce. "He twisted his ankle in the first 20 seconds of the game the other night (against Bristol City), but Scottie Hogan is a bit of a plus. He might be just a couple of weeks now, rather than the months which we first though."

What on earth about our performances this season, or indeed the last 6 years, do you think gives us the right to have that attitude?  Has it escaped you're attention that we are pretty shit ourselves?

Snigger. Keep your hair on.

Anyway, I reckon this lot are absolute shit and we should do them easily so I'm going for 0-0

Just going out to pick up the mini bus for tomorrow. We now have 10 travelling from Dorset with the Bournemouth Lions. 
Hopefully three wins in a row!

He's hardly predicting a 10-0 drubbing, is he?

Rotherham are bottom of the table. We've already beaten them once, and scored three times whilst doing it.

There's no guarantees of getting anything but predicting we'll win 2-0 doesn't strike me as particularly out-there.

It's a pretty arrogant way of expressing the prediction don't you think?  And if you don't I'm pretty sure lots of people would.

Their last 4 home games - they scored 2 against Huddersfield (narrow defeat), drew with Blackburn, lost to Barnsley (by a smaller margin than us) and beat Norwich.

Guess how that compares to our last 6 away games?

Yes they are bottom, but bearing in mind how poor we can be we've no right to be arrogant.

In the same way that everyone at this stage of the season last year expected to beat us, everyone will be expecting to beat Rotherham. It's nothing to do with arrogance, just common sense about playing the side that is comfortably the worst in the division. To me it's no different to pretty much all of us expecting to lose at Newcastle.

[chrisw1]

It's very different.  Newcastle hadn't lost their previous 6 home games.

Any news on the Russian?

Richard Whiteley is on the case!
