When we lost at home to them last season, it was like losing to an Ipswich, Gillingham or Morecambe - to pick 3 random meaningless teams. I was born in Rotherham, and both my brother and step-father played for them. My dad, Aunty and Uncle support them, but they still mean squat to me. They all try and wind me up, but I just don't bite because I've nothing to bite at. I'm just like "Meh! Rotherham. Whatevs". What an absolute crockofshite 'my dad, aunty and uncle support them' 'I was born in Rotherham' 'my brother played for Rotherham' But playing Rotherham means the same as playing Morecambe? Are you high? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most Wednesday fans couldn't tell you more than the bascis about rotherham. They just don't register as a club, most do find them annoying that they are trying to make out they have a meaningful rivalry with us, historically their rivalry was with Doncaster. Strange club. What I find humerous with you Rotherham Wednesday 'fans' is you're all stressing how much you aren't bothered by 'Rovrum' and how we are no different to Morecambe, Gillingham blah blah blah. Yet here you are on day 4 of a 7 page thread about Rotherham! WTF is all that about? There's always threads about us but from what I've seen on Millersmad and Facebook, Wednesday hardly get a mention unless we are playing them. I've checked and I can't find any thread on Morecambe or Gillingham.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was born in this country so failing English in school was unpossible. As for your definition, any team we play are opponents, not rivals. Rotherham want to be us, but never can be. Therefore they cannot compete with us, which is essentially what a rival is. To them, we are the bigger, more historic club. To us, they are just a local team. It really does end there. Are my eyes deceiving me? Did you just say Rotherham 'cannot compete with us'? As in, wages or because we are a division above Wednesday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're the only one who's said he likes living in Rotherham in all the years I've come on here. The rest of em who slag off our town really baffle me. If Rotherham is that bad why would you not just move to somewhere better? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps it's all they can afford and they're saving up for somewhere better like Afghanistan or Somalia. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morecambe or Gillingham don't claim that they have a meaningful rivalry with us, Rotherham fans do. You're an annoying misconception. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neon Nick Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 I went to the Millersmad Forum, yep, big meltdown, funny as hell, @helmut_rooster did in fact get them even more riled up. All of a sudden they don't think much of the two Michaels, talking about "the Massive" (SWFC) down to shopping for 3rd Division "cast-offs", if any Owlstalkers want some good comedy, I'd highly recommend a visit to Millersmad. Talking about how old Smith is, and what do they do? Sign a replacement who is as old and probably not going to score as many. They say "Icky" was never any good, but a prolific scorer of own-goals, and gets caught-out all the time. Anyway, it's some good entertainment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
