Grabban can not start next game. 

Should have won the game. 
 I think with fans roaring in final 15 we win that game.

As i said at half time Grabban should be dropped and spend sometime on the side-lines, also never captain material (which think is also effecting his game). Lolly was much better 2nd half, but why do we struggle to do the basic things passing wise? Lots of chances towards the end as we sped up the game, not convinced by our mid-field but Arter was part of the improved performance towards the end, he injected some urgency. Either play Colback or Yates at home not both CH!

Disallowed goal (what for is beyond me!), hit the bar, hit the post, two goal line clearances, keeper made a few stops............just not our night.

We do need to start playing in the first half though. We kind of get the first 15 minutes looking positive then drift out of the game for the next 30.

We could've won that 5-1, but luck wasn't with us again tonight.

We move on...............bring on the Derby
Sorry don t buy that yes we had a lot of chances but missed a couple of sitters 
Encouraging to see more chances created but as it stands Grabs could not hit a barn door
I like Yates but his heading is poor, both misssd gilt edged chances that change games

The 2 second half performances were like watching a different team.
If he were to pick from the same 18 on Friday then surely he must go with the X1 that finished rather than the one that started.

Some people seem to have overlooked that our new favourite scapegoat set up the equaliser.

I'm not gonna lie, when Arter and Taylor were brought on, something changed... whether it was tactics or morale, i don't know, but the game picked up somewhat when they came on! It was the same against Blackburn... when they were brought on, it picked up

I’m not sure that’s true or that the stats back that up. 

The only thing that changed was we went a little longer from the back because we were chasing the game.

Bright start to the game which turned really poor for both teams I thought then the penalty happened which came out of knowhere. Thought we where very good after that. I agree it's disappointing we only picked up after conceding but there where a number of positives to take from that performance..

Fingers crossed we continue to create those sort of chances on Friday..

Grabban showed composure to pick out Ameobi for the goal but he was poor and cost us the 3 points. He’s had enough chances this season to be top scorer in the league!
I’m also not having we went 442 either.
Taylor went high right wing and lolley tucked in to no 10. Ameobi also tucked in to give Ioannou more space - he just wasn’t on it tonight with his crossing. Christie did ok and I’m not so sure it was a pen - his own player tripped him on purpose from my only viewing- I want to see that again.
Yates needs to learn to head it down and he would have had 2 goals.
Ref should have punished Rotherham for the standing on free kicks and had the perfect chance when arter played a quick one. Arter also needs to play and be captain. Straight away - everything forward and barking orders - organising. A win on Friday and Iwe should be happy.

I’ll hold my hand up and say yes well done to him for setting up Ameobi for our goal but we can’t ignore that he’s in a funk right now when it comes to scoring himself. Is the empty stadiums a thing effecting him do ya think? Is he a player that thrives on that momentum of noise as we push up the pitch towards the goal?

Just watched the pen again and ref was conned. Player runs into the legs of own player and Christie on purpose. Clever play but VAR would have ruled otherwise.
