...which demands the question

...In which Universe is Rotherham FC seen as Giants?

The guy on ESPN seems really knowledgeable in contrast.

It sounded like a tongue-in-cheek comment to me. Mark Webber often covers our games for Final Score and knows us very well.

Edit: “A technical giant-killing on the cards”, he said - ie technically it would be because they’re in a higher division than us, but you wouldn’t really call it one.

If we knock out such a team it will be a Premiership team in name only.
It will be their B team, and although just one of their players will be worth more than our entire team, it won't count.

This one. The one in which Marcus Evans presided over a managed decline which saw clubs who had been lower down the footballing pyramid than us for years/decades in some cases overhaul and outperform us,

Whilst giant killing is a stretch, there is no doubt us beating Rotherham would be an upset. A real bogey side.

I start a nothing thread with a throw away comment and within 6 posts it's become contentious.
This isn't a Keno post which is actually clickbait looking for a 10 pager.
It's Keno who should hang his head in shame.
20 pages of fame, which got pulled, and he thinks just 'cos he sets TWTD records he's the Champ.

Jealous?
Yeah, a bit.

Now, stop that.
You're just trying to get a reaction.

This isn't Bill Grundy v. Johnny Rotten or Parkinson v Emu.

Sooty was an absolute legend.

As for Sweep, he was a god.

What about Sue.

Those menage a trois with Sooty and Sweep were legendary.

Corbett wasn't innocent either as regards Sue.
BBC swept that under the carpet sharpish.

Rotherham were 6/1 for this game. Nearly every other championship team is longer odds than we were today when playing Rotherham and that's with a few rested.

Shocking but unsurprising reporting.

Upset in terms of what? The past has no bearing whatsoever.

You can only play what's in front of you and no one remembers who plays for the other side if you win.
