Re: Rotherham ......

Yes and they play us a week a Saturday

Like Stanley no doubts they'll raise their game for this one but unlike Stanley I think they'll get beaten and onwards & upwards

Could this be our first season finishing above Stanley after gifting em 6 points? THINK SO!

Re: Rotherham ......

From what I have read re the situation at Rotherham, I think it is a very brave & honest descision by them particulary as they were still in the hunt for the play offs

Unlike a certain Ken Bates and Leeds United last season.

Re: Rotherham ......

Why is it a brave decision? They can stay in this league & avoid paying their debts - again!
How many times is a club allowed to do this?

Right on the money, AccyMad! The brave and honest clubs are the ones like Stanley who live within their means.

Re: Rotherham ......

I still think to take the 10 point deduction now is a brave & honest thing to do! I don't know if they could have held out till the end of the Season but if they did and then got promoted via the play offs at Wembley with perhaps a cash windfall from doing it to pay off debts, doing it this way is the harder option and more honest approach, Good Luck to Them!
