Millers Leave Millmoor

Rotherham have finally confirmed they will leave Millmoor for Sheffield's Don Valley stadium next season.

The move comes after protracted talks with the ground's owner, and former club chairman, Ken Booth. Incoming owner Tony Stewart, who is still finalising takeover talks in an effort to avoid a points deduction for next season, confirmed the move to their official site:

"We have done all we could to allow this club to stay at Millmoor but I am not going to wallow in this, we are going to make sure that we make our time at Don Valley as exciting as it can be and trust that our supporters will back us through this period as they always have. We will work doubly hard with the Rotherham Borough Council, and other interested parties to ensure that the new Community Stadium becomes a reality as soon as possible.

"In the meantime we will now press ahead with plans for the coming season which have been held up by the discussions over Millmoor."
