Probably will be unchanged you'd think. I had a quick look back at our lineups from previous games this season, we were unchanged once in August, right before we started getting one serious injury per game. That was the only time this season. Must be unusual for a team to change as much as we have done.
Rotherham gave us David Seaman, Duggie Brown, Chuckle Brothers, William Hague, Ivy Tilsley and Howard Webb. The Rotherham Advertiser was the crucible in which the UK's leading literary light, Jeremy Clarkson, was smelted. They made many of the cannons for HMS Victory and the steel plates for the SS Great Eastern. Jamie Oliver's television series Jamie's Ministry of Food (2008) was based in Rotherham. He aimed to make Rotherham "the culinary capital of the United Kingdom" The brick-built glass making furnace, the Catcliffe Glass Cone, is the oldest surviving structure of its type in Western Europe. The first Rotherham United home strip was yellow and black. Rotherham United are called the Millers because there is a Hovis Mill near to the ground where they have made more breads than all of the hotels in Portugal. Rotherham played in the first ever League Cup Final, losing 3-2 on aggregate to Aston Villa in 1961. Rotherham United came from the merging of Rotherham Town and Rotherham County.
They didn’t give us them. We paid £40,000 each for them.Which when you consider he record transfer fee was £115,000 for Denis Law equates to about £35 million each compared to the highest English record transfer now. And we paid te same for Waggy. Shows how these things have altered.
It was just a joke. Was discussing transfers with a City fan the other day and we were saying the what we spent on Waggy, Houghton and Butler was more than the record transfer fee at the time which would be like City spending over £100 million on 3 players in a couple of years. And as if that would ever happen. It was huge at the time along with the building of the largest gym in the country and the tallest floodlights in Europe. It all seemed geared up for far more than what we ended up doing.
Greaves might have had a rampaging last half hour going forward but he barely laid a foot on that winger up to then (and by the way he was shirt pulling again at a corner in first half). If Elder's fit I'd bring him straight back in and probably move Greaves back to CB and leave Figs out. If Elder's not fit, and Fleming is, I'd play him. Give Greaves credit for sticking at it but he didn't look like a left back to me.
First trip to their new(ish) ground. Looking forward to the day out. The weather says sunny with gusty winds. City 3-0 Windy Millers
