Mick happy with Pre-Season so far.

After spending the last 3 weeks on mainly fitness training, the Millers squad are now working on purely football training ahead of their friendly game against Grimsby.

Harford told the Rotherham Star; "Preparations are going well, Friday's game will be more like a League game. The first two and a half weeks have mainly centred on fitness; now we'll start to organise the team.

"Players who start the game will get 70, 80 or maybe 90 minutes, instead of 45 minutes which they've been getting. It's another progression in our pre-season." he added.

Meanwhile the club are looking for somebody for the role of Phoenix the Rotherbird.

The candidate will lead the team out before games as well as representing the club at events, galas and kid's birthday parties.

The job is expected to be shared as Phoenix will be going home and away with the Millers. Anyone intrested in applying please contact the Millers Commercial dept on 01709 521760 or email on commercial@rotherhamunited.net
