RUFC - Moore 'have to defend like lions'

Rotherham United Manager, Ronnie Moore says that he thinks Peter Taylor was a bit unfortunate to have left Bradford City.

'When you've had the injuries he had it is very difficult to keep a side up there,' he told Radio Sheffield. 'But they are practically all fit now and there's a lot of quality in that side. So, maybe it was a matter of just waiting and giving him a chance but he didn't get that break.

'Peter Jackson has taken over now and he should reap the benefits of having a very good squad.

'It's going to be a difficult game for us. It's a derby game and there will be a tremendous atmosphere. We'll take a few and there will be eleven thousand or so there but that eleven thousand can soon turn if things aren't going well.

'We've got to make sure that we defend like lions and don't give anything away. The last thing we want to do is concede early and what we need to do is put some pressure on them, get the first goal and see how the crowd react then.'
