Comedy thread.

Rotherham average less than our lowest league crowd in about 15 years.

They are certain clubs in every division were you know there gonna bottle promotion and Swindon have always been one of them.
Yeah, since the last few times we've been promoted of course.

Come back to me when you've got to the PL - or even won anything of note

You bottle promotion to Championship at every opportunity you get.

You won the league cup 60 years ago and played in the premier league conceding the most goals ever, right claim to fame.

I've had a look but can't find it anywhere - have Rotherham ever played in the top flight?

Apart ftrom the times when we got promoted to the Championship, of course.

We also got 30 points that season - have a look where that stands in the piss poor PL teams Hall of Shame.

Hang your heads Derby County, Sunderland etc.

I look forward to you listing Rotherham's no doubt long list of footballing achievements

We've been promoted, relegated back to league two and back into the championship since the last time you played at this level, embarrasing.

Well done on 30 points you conceded 100 goals, woeful.

Apart from a league cup and that one PL season, you've won us as much as us, actually less.

Not embarrassing. We are what we are. You appear to be under the impression you are something out of the ordinary. You being, temporarily, I the Championship manage, at a guess, 1500 more than we get bumming along in L1.

You need Lee Power as owner - that'll teach ya!

You've gone from 'come back when you've been in the PL' to 'we are what we are'. Make your mind up. I know exactly what we are, a club in stature along the same lines as Bristol and Swindon.

You should be shamed by that fact with attendances btw with Swindon being nearly double the population of Rotherham and no teams for miles around.

Well, we are what we are. A small club that has managed to win a major cup final at Wembley and made it to the PL but are now where, historically, we've always been.

Surely no fans are ashamed of their club - except MK perhaps

Average sized club in the league you've never got past, don't keep kidding yourself :)

We've reached a major final, got silverware, never dopped out of the league all we need is a season in the top flight and we'd have a past most clubs would die for.

Even the most delusional of Swindon fans don't put us in a category with them as 'similar sized clubs'.

Do you get satisfaction out of trying to play the joker on a football forum all day? Do your friends know what you do with your spare time?

We've done all of that, but we've done 'nothing of note, ever' quote you.

Well they should, more fool them.

I'm sat at work all day winding the likes of you up, it takes a very very dim individual to bite at me all day like you have.

Slight irony in that, see if you can notice it before you brush it off as another attempt at a WUM :D

Not yet, closing in on one apparently. Hopefully not LJ, Sherwood or Southgate - who are the three our local rag mentioned today.
