I always remember that and think of what might have been. We were sitting at that end only a few rows up and couldn't believe it was given as a corner

Very impressive turnaround, hard to believe he is still managing at this level. Warnock's Notts County bullied and out thought and out fought us all those years ago in a playoff final defeat., with the help of a first goal that came from a corner that should have been a goal kick
25 years ago and it still hurts

Agree. It was never ever ever a ****ing corner

I don't see Rotherham doing anything. They just don't have the resources.
Warnock is getting the best out of a team with its back against the wall, but it's very tough to keep that going over the long ol' slog of a football season.

Rotherham are the new Barnsley.
Do just enough to scrape up every year but never any more than that.

They don't play the top two but they do play Hull last game of the season, that might help us.

I think BG is searching for a football soul mate and Warnock is his type of guy.
Presumably you'd like him, in that hugely unlikely circumstance, to bring Matt Derbyshire with him?

So do the shirts.
I don't know if it is just me but Neil Warnock and Harry Redknap could actually have been conjoined twins separated at birth. They both talk shite, they both always look like they are going to cry during interviews if a decision has gone against them and they both always seem that they have a personal secret that if we knew about it we would be appalled

It took 29 posts on Rotherham for someone to finally mention the legend that is Matty Derbyshire - sign him up!

Colin Wanker will be elsewhere by the end of next season, probably by January, or maybe March at the latest, in his eternal quest to become the first member of the English Manager Serial Losers Club to have joined the 92 Club - and the first as a manager. Colin don'r care, Colin just quietly takes the pay-off and moves smoothly on to the next mug club.

Really is some bollocks put on some of these threads.... Warnock is not my type of manager or choice but he is 'good' at what he does and that is man management, Rotherham is a good example of this.

I quite like Warnock. He was always the perfect manager for the Rotherham job when it came up this time.
He loves a battle, being up against the odds, he's not the sort to go and spend loads of money, but instead is great at working with- to be fair- the more limited players, and getting another 10% out of them. He's a Yorkshireman born & bred, so he must be back amongst some of his family and friends up there. Rotherham were in a rubbish position before he arrived, couldn't get any worse, and had nothing to lose. Warnock has got them giving it a right go, and good luck to him (their recent revival has gone a long way towards pushing MK Dons straight back down to League One, and that is something which we should all heartily applaud).
Next season, I'd be extremely confident that they'll still be relegation contenders, as the novelty and excitement of a Great Escape will have worn off. They're highly unlikely to suddenly become top half players simply because they've rustled up a few wins now on the back of a wave of momentum while under no pressure. He probably won't even last until the end of next season. Shame really. He's a character.

Ok short term but the ranting at players soon wears thin.
