.The plus points are they still have 1 more point than Millwall, a game in hand and what appears an easier run in, so all is not doom and gloom.

No emotions here.
If that happened to Brighton, not only would the Palace knuckle draggers come out laughing, but Albion fans would be mortified if it meant relegation on a major error

Dont have a problem with Steve Evans, he's got Rotherham punching above their weight, with players on a 5,000 pound a week wage ceiling as well.
Punishments about right but I hope they stay up.

so, let's put this into perspective. For 90 minutes, they watched this 'administrative error' blunt our potent strike force ? Deserve everything they get, suppose it was the other way round ?

You mean the potent strike force that scored marginally more than no goals at all during the whole of this season, never mind 90 minutes against the northern minnows?

feel sorry for their fans on two grounds.

1. They have an incompetent idiot for a club secretary
2. They have Evans for a manager

They don't deserve either.

I'm wondering if you missed an irony here.

We totally out played Rotherham at The Amex first half but him and his assistant Rayner sorted them out and they were q different team after the break.

I like Rotherham, I hope they can still stay up. I find Evans quite amusing, he gave me a winning tip once!

No, true sports fans want to see teams adhering to the rules not ignoring them, and then moaning when they get caught.

A lot of people mock him because of his appearance, but if you ignore that and just look at his record as a football manager, he's phenomenal. He's managed three grotty little clubs - Boston, Crawley and Rotherham - and taken each of them arguably at least two divisions above their natural place in the football pyramid. He's clearly got a style and a plan that gets results. It makes you wonder what he would be able to do with a big club, but I don't think he'll get a chance to go to one.

Then again there are the teensy weensy issues of fraud,tax evasion, bullying, and sexist behaviour
