No pressure on us - Warney

The Millers travel to 2nd placed Newcastle tomorrow, they look set for an immediate return to the Premier League and will go to the top of the table should they defeat the Millers.

Speaking to themillers.co.uk today boss Paul Warne gave the Toon respect, but not too much.

“I am well aware of the enormity of the task, but we will embrace it and there is no pressure on us, We will enjoy the challenge and see where it takes us. The lads are excited, and so they should be. If you are not excited about going to play at the likes of Newcastle then you are in the wrong job."

"They know they how big a task it is, but I think that they are looking forward to going toe-to-toe with the best. They are a really good attacking side, The wingers cut in and the full-backs go around. They have pace; Shelvey plays like a quarterback and picks out passes all day long. The players make runs because they know he will find them."

Warne watched them a fortnight ago and said; "The game I went to see they only had four of their regular side playing, and the game was out of sight within 20 minutes against Birmingham's first team.”

With over 3000 Millers making the trip, Warney thanked the travelling Millers; "We will have great support behind us, It is good that we have such a good away following, and we appreciate our fans going up there. It will be a great occasion for them, and I know they will get right behind the lads.”
