Anyone watching?
Rotherham with 10 men just won the game in the last minute with a wonder strike!

Great drama
 
Red card was disgraceful.
Sure the Sheff Wed player was doing the fouling on the deck if anything?
One look at the league table shows you how important this game was - local derby too.
Great stuff (y)
Hop Rotherham stay up, I have a soft spot for them & Barnsley, but fingers crossed we finish above Barnsley
 
Their fans are furious at the last minute corner they screwed up.
Less than 30seconds later and it's in their own net.
Izzy Brown (sub) took the corner - more clubs than Jack Nicolaus that lad.

Another one of those 'lost souls' owned by Chelsea that ghost around the Championship

You have to feel for Wednesdayites.
They see Boro self abuse with Monk then pulis.
Then they hire them both in the same order.
Then they lose to Rotherham in a relegation clash that would be like us losing in a similar way to Hartlepool or Darlington.
Then they get relegated to the third tier.

I don't mind their fans and feel for them just now.
 
Rotherham looked a much better team than the likes of Birmingham and Coventry against us. That was partly due to how terrible our defence was that night granted.

I know Smith isn't a world beater, but I'd much have someone like that in our team than Britt or Akpom
 
Unbelievable strike to win it, criminal corner from Brown though.

I think the red could have been for a headbutt but didn't see an angle which made it clear what had happened? Referee didn't think twice to be fair.

As a Sheffield resident not a lot going for its football teams at the moment - apart from Sheffield FC who look to be moving back into the city (y)

I only watched the second half last night, thought Wing looked energetic but lost the ball a fair few times as well. Think he had more impact first half.
 
Unsurprisingly the baffling red card has been immediately overturned on appeal.

Very glad they still managed to win despite that shambolic decision.
