It looks like Robbos been reading the messageboards, with many users wondering if the team knew just what a win over Wednesday means for the fans!

Talking in todays Rotherham Star, Robbo state's they do, here's what he said; "Somebody did say to me that we'd got a lot of new players and he hoped they knew what a win would mean for the fans and everyone, Well, I don't think there's any danger of us misunderstanding or anyone not realising - you only have to look at all the connections we have."

"Graham Coughlan has just come from Wednesday; Peter Holmes started his career there; Andy Warrington's a Sheffield lad, so too Paul Hurst, Dale Tonge's been at Barnsley and got Rotherham connections in the family and so he's aware; Stephen Brogan comes from just up the road and loves this club, he knows what it's about on that score."

"The rest will have got the vibes too and, don't forget, there's me and 'Breck' (John Breckin) too, so the message will have got through."

"But, at the end of it all, no matter who the opposition tonight, we want to go out there and get a win for this football club and the fans, and progress to the next round. If we can pull off a surprise, then fine and it will be just another match on the way to this football club successfully turning itself round."

"Look, we are under no illusions. We are facing a Championship team and it will be very difficult for us and they'll obviously start favourites. We'll give it our best shot."
