Agree with that. MK Dons will be desperate. For them it is a must win game. All the noises Robinson is making suggest he is losing it a bit. Keep our discipline and keep it tight for half an hour and/or get the first goal, and they might get ragged.
I am not sure which bit of '...for them it is a must win game...' TTB didn't understand. He goes on to explain why it isn't the be all and end all for us if we don't win. I haven't seen anyone say we have to win it. Good grief. I think most people would agree that MKDons will themselves be thinking that it is vital for them to beat us on Saturday if they want to stay up. For us a defeat wouldn't be the end of the world, a draw would be a good result and a win would be fantastic.
TTB - this is a sensible site where you don't need to engage in extreme provocation to be heard. Everyone's opinion has value and just because you shout louder or behave more irrationally doesn't make your comments more important. Try putting your views across in a more mature and reasonable fashion and someone might take you seriously. Otherwise you'll just been seen as the attention seeker that I think you really are.
I also would start with Danny Ward instead of Best, but both will play some part in the game whichever starts. It is very demanding to play up front on your own and Ward might be a bit fresher, Best having played most of the last two games. I think a lot of Joe Newell and would like to see him get more minutes but it is difficult to leave anyone out of the recent starting eleven barring injury.
Mk could lose Saturday and then win their next 5 games.
True but about as likely as a 5000/1 shot winning the Premiership ... oh wait. But you get my point, chances of a team winning 5 on the bounce when they have not put two consecutive wins together all season is pretty remote wouldn't you say?
How is it a must win for either of the teams?
Certainly not a must win for Rotherham that is for sure (I think this has been said before now several times already, so let's put this to bed once and for all eh? Stop repeating things as fact that no one is saying). However, to go nine points clear with 5 games to go could be a catastrophic blow to the MK Dons survival hopes - see answer to 1 above.
We heard this kind of over-hyped crap before we played Charlton and Bolton. We lost both, now look where we are.
Did we? I don't recall.
Stop trying to make the game something it isn't.
3,000 travelling fans may disagree with you that this game is not important to them
Blackwell and Warnock aren't,
That's their job, take the pressure off us and pile it on them. It's called good management.
neither should our hysterical fans,
Why not? Fans have, since football began, talked in the pub, at the game, at work and now on message boards and social media about the team and their prospects. That's why the majority of us are here, to talk about the team we love and football in general. Maybe you could try joining in the debates in a more mature and intelligent way rather than just spouting drivel, carping on from the sidelines and basically annoying the good folks of MB.

I would class the game as a "not lose". I personally would take a point now, keep the 6 point gap with another game crossed off for MK Dons to try and close the gap.
Of course it may be Charlton who are nearest us come end of play even when we hammer MK.
Phew! And breath.....paper bag, Greg Halford, cool beech, next season, mummy hug, drug bliss, desert island , dummy and cuddly bear...I'm OK. ..you're OK. ..calmer-wiser-happier now and drifting...zzzzzzz.....zzzzzzz. ......
Dream; and here we are it's the last game of the epic championship season and the mighty and merry millers combined with the team of '74 and '65 and 81 are here against the world 26 of Hull Tigers ...at the break it's 0-0 with the millers needing 3 wins and 34 goals...and they have done it. Thanks to the elephant and Ians last minute striptease and andy the brown girl with a miniskirt... end of play even when we hammer MK...end of play...even if you grow up...grow up...
......zzz Thanks to the elephant and Ian last minute striptease and the girl with a miniskirt. ..everyone pats the duck and it's off to MK dons for a pizza. Champions of the world visit the harlem globe trotters and receive medal of honour for outstanding things...zzzzzzz....atgh...uh...it was a dream.
Off to the match. Come on millers.
