This Saturday we face Lincoln City at Millmoor, looking to claim our 2nd League double of the season.
Here’s a look at this fixture over the years.
The Millers and the Red Imps have locked horns in Football League games at Millmoor 40 times previously, and Rotherham are unbeaten in the last 15 meetings dating back to a 2-1 defeat in 1957.
Last time out resulted in a 1-1 draw back on December 4th 1999.
The Millers consolidated 2nd place in the quest for automatic promotion from Division 3 with this point, while Lincoln climbed to 12th.
Rotherham’s leading goalscorer Darren Garner notched his 8th of the season on the stroke of half time to give Rotherham hopes of 3 points, but 7 minutes into the second half former Nottm Forest player Paul Smith levelled matters in front of 3,674 fans at Millmoor.

The last Millers League victory over Lincoln City at Millmoor came on September 10th 1997.
Rotherham were looking to consolidate back in the bottom division after 8 years, and new boss Ronnie Moore had endured a shaky start to his tenure with just 1 win from the first 5 League games.
After a goalless first half, the game sprang to life 24 minutes after the interval in front of just 2,871 spectators.
Andy Roscoe opened the scoring after 69 minutes, before Lee Glover (75) and Jason White (81) made the points secure.
Paul Miller hit a consolation for the Imps 2 minutes from time.
This was Jason White’s Millers debut, which came the day after he signed from Northampton Town, and he would endear himself to the Millmoor faithful with 5 goals in his first 6 games.
