RUFC – Robins post Shrewsbury

Rotherham United Manager, Mark Robins, told the Official Site that he thought the team were magnificent today after going down to nine men and losing to a penalty at Shrewsbury Town.

‘We were in control without creating any real chances,` the manager said, ‘I think Shrewsbury will think themselves relieved to get the penalty. Even at nine men we were unlucky not to nick a goal because we did threaten during the closing stages.`

On the sending offs, Robins said, ‘I didn`t think there was much in the first red card. I had thought about taking Broughton off just before he got his second yellow. I also thought David Stockdale was a little unlucky but after he was rounded he was the last man. Now we`ve lost both for next week.`
