If things weren't Bad Enough # 3 - Rotherham

Back in October , Millers Manager Paul Warne ended up in Isolation trying to manage the club over Wifi

In December their first COVID postponement came 90 minutes before kickoff against Derby, followed by the Middlesbro game

In March when only 1 club in 72  EFL had positive cases, all 25 were at ...yep, Rotherham.  Brentford, Luton and Coventry games got postponed 



So , on Saturday Rotherham travel to in-form Cardiff needing a Win and Derby to drop points,

It'll be their 12th game in 35 days,

Over a quarter of the Season played in 5 weeks

So, here it is

Starting Survival Saturday

SYNCHRONIZED KICKOFF

if its 0-0 finish for both games then it has Derby staying up

8th Minute

WALLOP



Rotherham stun Cardiff and Leapfrog Derby on Goal Difference

Derby decide to wreck the synchronised kickoff by the old fake injury trick



Waghorn Down !

8 minutes added on 

Derby Struggling, and just on half time



Derby 0 Sheffield 1

Sheffield now above Derby, and if Cardiff can equalise they stay up

49th Minute

Waghorn hits the Ball with his head instead of the Post



Derby 1 Sheffield 1, but Rotherham winning 1-0 are still staying up

52nd Minute

3 minutes later

Absolute cracker



Derby 2 - Sheffield 1 and Derby now staying up

62nd Minute

Derby player lays it up for .............the opposition striker



Derby 2 - Sheffield 2 and now Rotherham are back in the safe spot

69th Minute

Offside ref ?



No VAR here

A Derby flick on to help, and a bit of ping-pong from the corner has Sheffield in Front

Derby 2 - Sheffield 3 and Rooneys mob are overtaken again, Rotherham still up 

78th Minute

Penalty to Derby



Waghorn again to take the kick



Derby 3 - Sheffield 3, Rotherham still in pole position

Derby still have to win this to be sure, Sheffield now need 2 again and pray

Sheffield throwing everything forward have been caught out at the back

Rooneys Delighted !

88th Minute



Cardiff Equalise

Rotherham have had to play 12 games in 35 days and they've fallen with 2 minutes to go of the last game



Cardiff 1 Rotherham 1, and Derby have somehow escaped being relegated

So Derby survive despite getting only 1 point out of the last 24



Derby owner has spent $300 million in the last 6 years and nearly ended up in League 1 for the price

Rotherham had their chances and blew it



Wycombe finished strongly after it was too late, a hopeless goal difference always worth a point

amazing last games.....
Thats P/R for us all invested in the game no matter which league you follow.
Derby by the skin of their teeth.......
Great updates mate.

Bit of fun eh !
