With respect CD I haven't indicted this and in fact I've actually previously stated that Robins is likely going to have to settle with regards to retaining certain players due to the cost in both time and resources of overhauling a squad. Especially as due to the cost in fees and wages bringing...

Maybe I'm way off then!

I think League One clubs would see him as an attractive acquisition. Especially those in the top 6 who are desperate to get out of the league. As much as he's struggled this season he was one of the best CB's in the league during the last campaign and part of a backline that was second I...

I suspect we'd be able to get a little higher. My guess was around £200k - £250k. Certainly enough to warrant the club activating his one-year extension and putting him out to market. Assuming we stay up that is.

I think the infamous Sheaf meltdown was a solid enough indication of that.

Managers up and down the English pyramid repeatedly complain year on year how taxing and debilitating the Christmas/new year fixture congestion is on their respective squads. Imagine how debilitating it would be doing that twice over - especially with a squad the size of Rotherham's. For...

It would only make sense to sell Hyam if we were to stay up. However, assuming that was to happen, I'd wager that we'd be able to generate a fairly reasonable fee from the sale of Hyam. He's still relatively young, has experience in achieving promotion out of League One - where he was arguably...

Severely punishing clubs for outbreaks would only serve to open a can of worms for the EFL where potential law suits down the line would likely follow. Clubs can only mitigate the risk of the spread through their Covid policies, they can't prevent it altogether. The EFL were never going to get...

I'm really unsure how people still believe Rotherham have somehow advantaged themselves through postponing games when they have to play 12 fixtures within a 5 week window with one of the smallest squads in the league.

We brought him in as an AM and he himself describes himself as a AM/winger. But, granted he has performed well playing in a deeper midfield role - although just because Kewell deployed him there, that doesn't necessarily mean Robins will do the same as managers have their own ways of doing...

I wouldn't say 100% at all. If we're to go down we'll likely have Allen, Jones, Bapaga and Shipley (O'Hare will probably be sold) fighting for a spot in the attacking midfield position/s. Unless he's content with barely featuring I suspect he'll be moved on. Like I said, it'd be best for both...

It's not so much stupid as every transfer comes with its associated risks and dipping into the European market is always precarious. However, I simply can't fathom why the club is insistent on dishing out 3-year contracts on European players like party bags. I've said it before, it would be...

He was doing well in a deeper position - a position that we're already packed with players and one that isn't even his strongest position to play in. What specifically concerns me with Hillsner is that he's 14 games into his time at Oldham and questions are still being raised about his...

It's a shame for him really as he's essentially packed up his entire life and move to the UK in an attempt to further his career and it just hasn't worked out. However, if he's struggling to cope with his fitness/weight in L2, then without beating around the bush, he's got little hope of making...

As frustrating as it was to see Biamou in the starting lineup after his dire performance against Luton, Robins' options up front are fairly limited if Walker isn't match fit and Godden is still managing his injury. So, our frustrations are undoubtably being felt by him as well. I very much doubt...

Or Derby. With Norwich, Reading and Swansea still to play as well as games against Sheffield Wednesday and Birmingham their run-in isn't easy. Their form as of late has sucked them right back into a relegation battle. Rotherham seem to have a knack of picking up points when it matters and...

Little point in risking Godden. If he's still experiencing pain it's illogical to be throwing him into U23 games and risk aggravating his foot. As frustrating as it is for both player and manager it's clear his minutes will have to be managed constructively for at least the first half of April.

Really?! Who knew....

We do create chances, we just don't do anything meaningful with them.

Well there wasn't. The vast majority believed that whilst we should be beating Wycombe, it was by no means going to be an easy game.
