    I guess I need to adjust my expectations and consider midtable in L1 playing awful football to be acceptable.

    Scanlon is one of the trio Man Utd poached off us. Still only 16.

    Did you not just say "I want to be off my seat as often a possible celebrating a goal , off my seat as often as possible hoping a goalmouth incident/ chance is going to hit the net and I want to be off my seat at the final whistle celebrating a derby win"?
    PPDA was in direct response to someone using that stat in defence of Warne's football.
    Number of shots, the only other stat I referenced in my post, is exactly what you're looking for when YOU watch us play. I've proven that there isn't any real difference in the number of shots between Rosenior and Warne. Yet, Rosenior's football bored you and Warne's doesn't?

    You think people demand elite level football? After watching Warneball for 11 months, I crave for the days of Rowettball, never mind what we had under Mac. I firmly stand by my belief that Rosenior would have eventually got us playing a lot closer to Mac than where we were when he left.

    No, if anything they’re too low from some fans. When did losing at home to teams like Oxford become acceptable?
    We have the best team in this league, and we should be getting promoted. So far this season has not been up to standard.

    What made Rosenior's football boring, whilst Warne's is entertaining? Shots?
    Rosenior's games which we didn't win:
    Charlton - 15 shots
    Shrewsbury - 13 shots
    Fleetwood - 27  shots
    Plymouth - 12 shots
    Lincoln - 10 shots
    I recall goalkeepers being man of the match in at least 2 of those games (Fleetwood and Lincoln)
    In the games this season, we've had 20, 9, 11, 13, 13 and 10 shots. As you can see, there isn't any improvement in chance creation. There are a couple of main differences. Warne's style of play means more shots in relation to number of passes and possession, Collins was unlucky with a number of efforts under Rosenior, whilst Waghorn has been clinical this season.
    Is it not possible that Rotherham had a high 'Passes allowed Per Defensive Action' because they were so wasteful with their passing, resulting in the opposition had fewer defensive actions to make? We're 13th for PPDA this season, behind the likes of Wycombe,  Northampton and Shrewsbury. It's also possibly that Rosenior acknowledge the abilities of his squad (mostly old and slow) which leant itself to not pressing as aggressively.
