Thursday Friday and Saturday chill on SundayHope QPR do us a favour and beat them on Tuesday. If they do a point is decent on Thursday but if Rotherham win on Tuesday we need to beat them on Thursday.
Win and we overtake Derby and Birmingham as well as potentially Huddersfield if they lose on Tuesday
They haven't scored a single goal in their last 3 games and have a terrible home record. Where does that confidence come from that they will win against a very decent QPR side?
Biggest game of the season,not sure robins will send them out 2 up front maybe more going out not to lose.
Draw
No-one has said we are nailed on though.Teams fighting for survival tend to get the odd good result. QPR do not travel well. Rotherham i recall went and won 3 nil at Middlesbrough recently, so I'd caution any approach that we are nailed on here.
Getting past the first minute would be an imrovementIf we don’t concede in the first few minutes or make silly errors, I think we will get at least a point.
If we win our next 7 we'll be top of the divisionif Rotherham win their next two games we are in the relegation zone

How is that not traveling well?
I admire your posts and optimism.They haven't scored a single goal in their last 3 games and have a terrible home record. Where does that confidence come from that they will win against a very decent QPR side?
Biggest game of the season? Means we will lose... lol
Does it? Robins track record in 'big' games is good.
Checkatrade final, Play Off semi and final, Stoke FA Cup, the final two games against Sunderland and Leicester.
Can't think of many other big games that we've lost under Robins.
Leicester?
Let's see how they get on, on Tuesday and see what side they put out.Just when we think we're going lose at key moments of the season we snatch a win ,rotheram h,derby h,Millwall a,Bristol city h.this is another one of those games.
We are due an away win.rotheram we have the Best chance.
Rotherham have 3 or is it 4 home games in a row. What's the odds they would lose them all?
I doubt that and so a win or maybe two is coming from somewhere you would think.
Crewe?
I think he meant Ipswich.
I actually did have a sneaky feeling Wycombe would win that one.Who thought Wycombe would beat them at home ,not me in fact our point at home to them looks a good point in hindsight.In fact Rotherham at home is not a home banker and I think they will be lucky to get 5 points at the most from us,QPR,and brum so a point could be a big point it does depend on what QPR side turns up on Tuesday for a win could start a run of good form but a defeat could be the beginning of the end.

That is three very tough games for Rotherham coming up now. QPR, us and Birmingham..
Worst of all for them, stacked up. Tuesday, Thursday, Sunday with no respite or rest..
My concern is we played okay yesterday but still lost 4-1 score flattered Bournemouth a bit but again we conceded preventable goals at crucial times especially their second, poor defending and goalkeeping error, going to be a lot of pressure Thursday, crosses etc. Rotherham can bully too we don’t saw that at their place last season, We concede a lot of silly free-kicks. But the longer we keep the game level the more Rotherham will push and hopefully leave space at the back. Going to be a tough one.
I don't get this home and away argument this season.
The manager just needs to set the team up to be positive and take the game to Rotherham.
It's not complicated.
Whether we are playing at St Andrews, the Ricoh or the NYS is itrrelevant at the moment.

The home and away argument though HAS been chalk and cheese for us. Very good at home, awful awayI don't get this home and away argument this season.

They SHOULD pick their best team on Tuesday. Especially with QPR being on the beach and whatnotRotherham fans generally of the view they should try and pick the best possible side for each game, which I’d agree with. We haven’t won away in over 3 months, no better chance to change that habit
Our game on Thursday is going to depend a lot on what the team Rotherham play against QPR (i.e is it their best 11). They don’t have a massive squad they can rotate. So will players be tired against us or will they be on adrenaline because it’s a massive relegation game? Will any players get injured on Tuesday?
Then we need to see what team Robins will put out with injuries in defence. Will Hyam come back? Does Eccles stay at RWB? Don’t think Robins trusts Dacosta at all. Is Hamer an option? Will Robins take a gamble? Godden is miles off the pace, so should Viktor start and God comes on as an impact player against tired players?
Fact is we’re awful away from home and Robins needs to make some very tough tactical decisions to win this game.
