    10 points clear of Reading in 7th said Radio Leeds.

    Which is good, because it'll be a 7 point cushion when our terrible away form continues on Saturday.

    First home game I have missed for a few years. Helping daughter move house and baby sitting Grandkids tonight.

    Managed to see most on the tv. It was a very difficult watch.

    Rotherham without doubt the worst team I have seen this season. I cant work out whether we stayed in 2nd gear and won that with ease, or we were just poor.

    How on earth did the sponsors award MOTM to Pointon?. The stand out player for me was Aden Baldwin, he looked a class above anyone else on the pitch tonight.

    A scruffy win, but I will take a few more of them to cement our play off place for sure.

    Biggest worry going forward is a chronic lack of firepower up front. Hopefully Jackson's injury isnt too bad.

    The atmosphere came across very flat on the tv.

    I think if we win our remaining home games and pick up a couple of points on the road, we should make the playoffs

    Bobby pointon seemed slightly off it tonight, 3 separate times he was slow to get a shot away in good positions and was blocked each time. Normally would have expected him to be more clinical

    Agree, I thought the whole of the defence were good tonight. I thought we started brightly, but when Jackson went off we definitely took a dip. Hard to watch, but 3 points is three points. Onwards to Reading.

    Strange game, we got in so many good positions to play a final ball in a dangerous area and just ballsed it up every time. That should have been an easy 3 or 4-nil win with even average final ball passing. Rotherham were terrible; the only chance they really had was their keeper. Says it all, really. Not much else to add, other than how Bobby got MOM when he was a big reason for us not winning by more I'll never know.

    As Mark Bower said tonight on Radio Leeds apart from Jackson who may be a doubt for Saturday we go with the same starting 11 we don't have a midweek game so a week to recover, please take note Alexander,

    Stockport’s unexpected ( not @Damo@Damo ) defeat sums our night up does it not ?
    Play ugly and win , yet high flying County with a “nailed on” three points against “ lesser” opposition just proves my point in spades ! . No such thing as a “ given “, so please stop suggesting otherwise?

    Apparently they don't teach the offiside rule in the Manchester United academy.

    Wheatley needs to time his runs better.
