Rotherham United take on Darlington in the Johnstone’s Paint Trophy Area Semi Finals tomorrow night at Don Valley.
The Millers were without a game this weekend after it was deemed Don Valley too waterlogged to play while Dave Penney saw his team lose at Morecambe.
The Millers have beaten Leeds and Leicester to get this far in the competition and Darlington have got past Huddersfield and Bury.
