crash Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 Not here to debate the match as we are two teams struggling at the moment. We struggle all the time , but live with it. I'm here to just say something about our chairman. When we were in the poo as normal, Tony Stewart a Rotherham based business man, who by his own admission knew nothing about football, but thought it could be run as a business would take over. none of us had heard of him He then unbelievably said he would build a new stadium for us in the middle of town. ha ha ha..Then he did it. 20 million quid. Teams pay that for a player. He is an absolute Gent met him several times and doesn't use bad language. We are run ok now. Not in debt, but deffo a yoyo team. slag us off by all means, but Wayne a bit petty calliny Mr Stewart classless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andicis Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 It wasn't petty at all. He was acting classless, so Rooney called it out. It's not that deep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crash Posted February 4, 2021 Author Share Posted February 4, 2021 By the way .The reason it is called New York stadium is nothing to do with fire hydrants as was suggested, simple thing it was the name of the old area there years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I met Tony a few years back when you were playing at Don Valley and must say I was surprised when Wazza said it was him who was shouting his mouth off.

Don’t know what to make of the Rooney and chairman saga but it’s good to see Rotherham competing in the championship and in a new stadium. My grandad was a miller so they are a team I will always keep tabs on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing I have to say. when it was built 50.000 tones of rubble raise the ground above flood level. We have won numerous awards for the state of our pitch. the drainage is second to none. think that was a new call off the other day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like your stadium (good acoustics when I went = cracking atmosphere). Like your manager - seen a few clips of the way he gets in his players' heads, seems an intelligent guy & he maximises your strengths. Always got time for a Northern town living where I do. Know your chairman is a local lad made good, has sunk plenty of dough into his hometown club & hope he is enjoying it mixing with the 'bigger' names. Can't say I'm fond of your style but you clearly have some very good players - Barlaser & Crooks were excellent last night. Hope you stay up ?

It was often aimed at the referee. We all like to vent at football, but it had a menacing tone. It was what it was regardless of the result. I hope Rovrum stay up and I bear no ill-feeling but it was dreadful to hear throughout. Unfortunate it was amplified by the Tv stream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B4ev6is Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 Well buddy I think you were rather lucky not be down to 10 men never mind 11 men. But still we gave away poor goals and ones that we should not ever have conceded. If lee Gregory scored from that chance you would never have one.

Comrade 86 Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 @crash Admire your loyalty buddy, but can I recommend that if you're here to defend the indefensible, that you head to our Coronavirus thread where you'll be welcomed with open arms. On the footy threads, however, given the way your 'true gent' of a Chairman conducted himself yesterday, not so much. The foul-mouthed screeching and coordinated baiting of the officials left a bad taste which is a shame really as it has overshadowed the fact that your lads put in a hard shift and were value for the win, on this occasion.
