“I didn’t think there was hardly anything between the sides, It was a game of few chances. People will think it’s the same old story but I have to be honest I don’t think we deserved to lose. I think a point would have been a fair result. No-team ripped the other side apart." Warney told the clubs official website.
“The lads gave me loads of endeavour and effort which I asked for but unfortunately for us, we were on the wrong side of it again. You can guarantee a performance level but not a result.”
“We set up 4-1-4-1 initially and I thought we curtailed them quite well in the first half, They didn’t have many chances, although we did not have a lot either. Wardy had one early one, when he nicked his shot just wide of the post."
“I thought we looked pretty comfortable. I thought it was a tight game and I’m not saying either side were great attacking forces. Majority of my lads performed to their limits so as a manager I go in after and I don’t know how much more I can ask of them physically.”
New signing Ben Purrington made his debut for the Millers and recieved praise from the gaffer; “I thought Purrington was outstanding, I thought Ben was excellent and that was the reason we brought him in. You can see he is athletic. He stopped a lot of crosses in the first half and he was against no mug, in David Cotterill. I thought he kept him really quiet and you could see his physicality."
“He kept going till the very end in what was a tough situation when we went three at the back but he’s going to have a great career in the game.”
