Butty Champions League

There are never any easy games in this league! But as in any league, you've got to be expecting to beat a side near the bottom of the league when you're the home side, I think we'll win but not a thumping by any means. 2-0 Rovers Conway and Rhodes. 12.5k on the ground. COYB!

Hmm, although the conditions aren't 'nice', it is better to be running up and down (and getting paid handsomely for it) than to be immobile and anxious on the periphery. I'm not expecting Rotherham to dazzle us with scintellating skills or flashy footwork, and neither am I expecting them to clog us off the park. What I am expecting is that Mr Lambert will have sufficient connection with his players by now to be able to exhort a little bit extra quality out of them, and that in the final analysis will be what is the difference between the teams on the night.

1-0 or 2-1 to Rovers, but wouldn't be surprised to see us go behind early and have to go balls out and gung ho for an equaliser. On a night like tonight that might actually make for a better spectacle than anything else.

COYB :rover:

Like previous posters have already said, I would take a 1-0 win right now as the points matter the most at the end of the day. It's going to take time for Lambert to mold this team into how he wants them to play.

This is the type of game we should be looking to win, the playoff gap has closed and another win should keep the pressure on those above us going into this weekend's games.

You can't underestimate any team in this league and I am confident Lambert won't.

Dont do score predictions, but with recent events and optimism this is a game you'd be gutted not to get 3 points from. Which for Rovers supporters is dangerous territory!

Im also bemused about 2 games in 4 days. Surely the game from this weekend should be pulled to the Monday!?

First off the bad - thought this was on tv and Monday's game wasn't - doh! Even has convinced the Mrs to go watch it in the pub (no mean feat since the last time I convinced her was the Bolton borefest.)

Positive - Lambert's blue n white army will grind out the win. Rotherham are a weak team in an otherwise competitive division, Bolton being the other exception. Don't expect us to not punish poor opposition under the Lambert regime so a solid 2-0 win to Rovers, Rhodes and Conway scoring.

Can't make it tonight, and two home games on a Friday/Monday night isn't ideal at any time - I presume that this fixture was ear marked as tomorrow's 3 o'clock kick off, but as Sky have picked us for the Monday fixture, this was the compromise.

Expect a first home win under PL, and 6-points over the 4-days would be an early Xmas present.

Jordan is due?

Rovers to win by 2.
