History of the Rotherham United v Grimsby Town fixture


Rotherham U. prepare to entertain Grimsby Town at Millmoor Ground on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The The Millers are clearly on top, having won 11 and lost only 3 of the 21 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Millmoor Ground was earlier this season, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1-1 final scoreline in an (Associate Members) match.
