Warne: a massive weekend ahead for us

BOSS Paul Warne says that he'll look for a quickfire reaction as Rotherham United face two tough Easter holiday games, starting with tomorrow's visit of Steve Evans' Peterborough.

Warne was disappointed as his side flopped 2-0 at Southend last week, a third defeat in four, although they remain eight points clear in the play-off rush.

And he expects a no-holds-barred clash against Evans' side, themselves looking to clamber into the end of season shootout.

"Peterborough are a tough side who have plenty of attacking options and score goals for fun," he said.

"Peterborough are on a good run and we're not because we've only won one in for, so I think it will be a good game with both teams trying to go for the win. 

"I expect from the start to the finish that both teams will go for the points."

Marek Rodak is expected back after his international call-up with Slovakia U21s, playing in Tuesday's 4-1 win over Albania.

Warne will leave his permutations until late but could be tempted to make a couple of changes, especially with Monday's trip to The Valley in mind.

Don't forget there's all the build-up in tomorrow's Advertiser — plus our Live Blog from the game as it unfolds.
