    Great free kick, straight from the training ground. It’s done and hindsight and all that, but if we’d have played this way last game we’d have won. I know Rotherham are one of the weaker teams but we’re so much better when we play offensively and look to create.

    We’re inviting pressure, not sure why we’ve reverted to being over cautious again. We had them absolutely panicked every time we attacked first half, and they still look vulnerable when we’ve got forward this, despite their changes. Walker has looked a little flat footed this half, perhaps...

    Apologies - I hadn’t read back through. Although you could have just let me have my smug comment!

    In all seriousness this is a great performance and we should have scored at least two more, and I can’t recal them having a chance. Only one game granted, but certainly evidence we can be attacking and still be solid at the back.

    Biamou is only playing well as Rotherham are essentially a L1 club.

    Best Walker has looked so far; nothing to do with playing as part of a two and alongside Max I’m sure.

    Who was it that scored? I couldn’t quite see? Fantastic touch, movement and finish whoever it was.

    Right team formation in my view, but disappointed to see Giles dropped. MR couldn’t quite go full gung ho I suppose. I like McCallum but it’s too as effective offensively and is a little off form. Feel for Sheaf but Hamer is the better player and Kelly is Captain and Mr Reliable for MR, so I...

    This us one of the most bizarre match days threads yet. Some of the posts are embarrassing. Feeling confident about the game today, but I think it’s pivotal we are offensive and on the front foot from the start. I’d play wing back, as it allows two of our best outlets in Dabo and Giles to...

    Cheers both, I’m hoping it’s just teething and/or a general virus. Testing was quick to sort, although the details within the confirmation email states that you have to administer the test yourself to anyone under 3. That’s going to be a joy...... And if it does come back positive I assume...

    Just had to collect my daughter from nursery as she had a temperature of 38.7. She was absolutely fine when I dropped her off this morning, but apparently ‘wasn’t herself’ as the morning went and then they checked her temperature. Got a test booked for 12:30.

    I would return to wing backs. It allows us to play two of our most attacking and influential players in situations that allow them to impact the game. It also allows to us to play two up front and our three strongest centre midfielders together. Plus allows us to adopt to play with a 10 if...

    Disappointing performance but good result. The most frustrating thing for me; if we’d have played our game, and showed any attacking intent, we’d have won that. As I said at HT, happy to keep it tight for 45, even 60 if needed, but to be defensive for the whole game is a risk and doesn’t play...

    Frustrating game. We’ve been poor and too negative for too long, yet still had chances to win it. Hate it when we play within ourselves, we look terrible when we do.

    One of the poorer games I’ve seen McCallum play today. Really hope Biamou scores the winner.

    Be good to see some attacking changes and intent now. Biamou and Ostigard for Shipley and McCallum and let’s go two up front and wing backs. Tempted to put Baka on but reluctant to take out most natural goal scorer off.

    I like him, but O’Hare really cannot finish. Not to be melodramatic but it’s going to end up costing us over the course of the season.
