Why do you wonder?

Cos I doubt we'd have sold the number that we did, had we had the same buying conditions as Rotherham fans have had.

As opposed to turning up at the ground to buy I would think internet sales are easier to be honest.

I doubt if that would make any significant difference but I agree that we wouldn't have sold many more under any circumstances.

The fact that Rotherham are too lazy to make their own arrangements to sell tickets speaks volumes for the club

They are much easier, but we seem to have a fan base stuck in the past.

Queuing from 5am for tickets that were never likely to sell out! Queuing for hours then moaning when one of the three windows were closed, and that they could pick their seat/block.

Rotherham fan at work spent less than 5 mins online booking his yesterday, picked his block, checked out the view then booked the exact seats he wanted, no fuss, cold, rain etc

Oh, sorry, I see someone needs a Rotherham education :D

1996 - Rotherham 2 - Shrewsbury 1 autowindscreens (glass cup .. whatever you want to call it) but basically the same as the modern paint pot cup

2010 - Daggers V Rotherham 3 - 2


I think it is you that needs an education. The daggers Rotherham game wasn't a cup final but a play off final so you have only had the one and that was 18 fkin years ago lol

Been told off a chesterfield fan at work about the stick we get on here so thought I'd have a look and my god you really are obsessed with us. How many threads is their about us? All I can put it down to is jealousy it has to be. Go on our forum (millersmad) and look how many threads there are about chesterfield. You'll be looking a long time because there are none. If we don't go up this year we'll be up there again next year will you? I very much doubt it. Just make sure you enjoy sunday should we lose because you'll get nothing from us if we're in same league. Enjoy your tinpot ground and relegation battle children goodnight.

We'll enjoy your fat fook of a manager making a tool of himself on live tv, and literally bursting into a pool of lard in a fit of rage on the touchline

What difference does it make how long ago it was you n0b j0ckey ?

your question was how many finals - the answer is 2, same as you

Do you come from Clowne ? cos you sure as hell talk like one

If you're counting the old wembley, then it's 4 'cup finals' weve been in.

Dire, dire attendance. Embarrassing, really.

Still, keep up the non-obsession! You and your buddy are doing really well not being obsessed once again.

I find it strange also, I've never had any major ill feeling with Rotherham, I think our younger generation have started a rivalry that has never existed. Maybe the record we had from 1979 to the end of the nineties maybe was a factor. For me, like Rotherham fans, the Blades and Owls will always be the teams that I want to beat, always want Rotherham to beat United and Wednesday. Unfortunately I do want Leyton Orient to win though, simply because the Rotherham games will generate a bigger attendance and a trip to the bottom end of London is never pleasant.

Rubbish, there are certainly a hell of a lot more older folk on here that care about Rotherham much more than the younger lot. Opening poster for a start, then there's the ones that seem to think the more they show they dislike Evans, the more their penis will grow.

Me personally, I find it very cringeworthy how much people on here discuss other teams

I thought it was a Saturday afternoon. I remember watching your tiny band of followers celebrating ALFs winner.

I'm sure you said earlier that you went.
