I heard from a rotherham supporting mate a few days ago that there was a behind closed doors friendly. He said it finished 1-1 but didn’t know the scorers or line up

Someone said on here that Brewster scored for us, on the training ground apparently.

Happy we played another friendly because 9 days between Barnsley and Watford is a long time when players need match minutes.

Coulibaly scored, according to the article.

Coulibaly scored, according to the article.

Someone is wrong then. I don't click on Star or YP articles though, it hurts my eyes.

Good old Norris Hermantraut is always right

Think there was a u23 game v Newcastle too

Do the u23s have many pre season games? Never notice any in reports.

Paul Warne wasn't impressed with their performance in the game.

It finished 3-1 to us. Jebbison scored early, think Sharp got another. Not sure of the other scorer.
Apparently what both clubs would consider their 1st teams.
Khedra played a part. Was told he looked excellent.

Paul Warne wasn't impressed with their performance in the game.

I wonder what happened in the second half? He makes it sound like we put 10 past them but it only finished 3-1. I'm almost hoping we didn't absolutely dominate but struggle to score.. Again.

 

[Weasel]

Result unimportant really in a behind closed doors game. But I'm sure it would have been competitive and it is more minutes in the legs and more chance to establish a playing pattern. Would have done us no harm at all getting ready for the main event on Monday evening.

 

[Mojo]

By what Warne is saying, we absolutely mullered their first team

 

[Scarebus]

I've got a hell of a lot of time for Warne. Keep meaning to listen to moment of truth series on BBC. Admire his determination with Rotherham, but even he must get tired of it.

Agree. Think he's done a tremendous job and seems a real decent type too.

Excellent manager is Warne

 

[Booker4]

Excellent manager is Warne

He's a top bloke and fits in very well at Rotherham. On the top manager part. He's done well at Rotherham but at the same time he's never managed to keep them up either. Granted he's done brilliantly with little, but Warnock managed to keep them up, think Evans did also for one season. I think he needs to establish Rotherham in the Champ before bigger clubs decide he's the one for them.

He's very open is Warne, it's refreshing but at the same time I wonder if he could do with keeping his counsel more on occasions.

 

[Westran]

Good to hear our first team mullered theirs, what you would expect really

I’m surprised he’s not left for a better funded job by now as it would surely make his life easier. He’s done a cracking job at Rotherham and his loyalty is admirable given you’d think his not been short of calls as he’s done an excellent job there. Feel he might be in for yet another thankless task again this year with them.

Wouldn’t surprise me if Norwich fail to go up this year and maybe next if they don’t finally tempt him away as he has links there.

Report, of sorts, here.

Mullered their young kids actually

Osula back with the U21s
Good to see Frankie Maguire is fit

Under 21s now rather than u23s.

Still allowed over-age players (can't remember exactly how many)
