So to you it's not a derby because we're nothing to you (apart from we're 7 miles away and above you in the league). And you'd be as happy to go to Gillingham for a match as Rotherham? Or as happy for Gillingham to bring 207 fans to Hillsborough rather than us bringing 5k to Hillsborough? Or you could ring Radio Gillingham up and have some banter on Praise or Grumble. Or go into work on Monday and give/take stick from Gillingham fans over the result. WTF are talking about? Local derbies are games involving two teams geographically close to one another. Therefore yes tonight is a local derby. Local rivalries are between two teams who have a mutual dislike for each other. Games against Rotherham are no different to games against Barnsley, Huddersfield or Doncaster. There are no pre match nerves and I certainly won't lose any sleep if we do lose. Oh and when did you last bring 5k fans to Hillsborough? Lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not a game I get overly invested in. Nice to win like any game, but that's the extent of it. Same goes for the Dingles, Donny etc. Unfortunately, given the absolute plonker we have in charge, I expect nothing from tonight. The turd that won't flush! When we play the pigs my stomach is churning for a week before. I dont get that with any other team. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malcolm Darling Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 Ok, you've got a bite out of me Mr Lee I don't like been called a bell end by you or anyone else. In your case a faceless keyboard warrior You know nothing about me, where I or my family originate from so do not form a judgement just because I choose to support Wednesday People living in Rotherham have the right to support who they want unless it happens to be Wednesday???? How very strange When was the last time you as a club brought 5k to Hillsborough?? There's more chance of Gillingham bringing 5k than Rotherham Get back on your own site you arrogant, ignorant, small minded tool 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bassetts Allsorts Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 I tell you what, if there's ever a question on a quiz about the distance between Hillsborough and the New York Stadium then I'll be top of the class after this thread. Must've been mentioned at least 7 times... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WalthamOwl Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 Early goal against us and I think we have to fear the worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sexpistol Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 As has been stated earlier, when we play the Blunts my stomach is churning and it hurts when we lose to them, it’s also elation when we win. Either scenario happens tonight would be nothing in comparison. The game is certainly a bigger thing for them and if they are honest they would admit that.

Then last time I think we only took about 3k because some refused to pay nearly 50 quid a seat which if we're all honest is an absolute joke.

We know our place but as Rotherham fans we all know if we are to stay up this season we have to be beating the likes of Sheffield Wednesday and Wycombe.

I vaguely recall you bringing 5k once nearly 20 years ago. And people reckon Wednesdayites are stuck in the past Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vassell, Smith and Ladapo are far better players from what I've seen. Admit he needs game time though. don't say that on here, the Hirst fan club will lynch you! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's your take on Sheffield United given their only *checks Google maps* 10 miles from NYS? You hate them too right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
