Rotherham United V Shrewsbury Town: Roberts ban forces Moore into change

MILLERS chief Ronnie Moore must make at least one change for tonight's televised encounter against their promotion rivals.

Gary Roberts is banned after being sent off in Friday's 1-1 home draw with Torquay after two yellow cards.

He could well have been missing in any case, having damaged a shoulder as the Millers dropped points to find themselves in fifth, five points shy of an automatic promotion place, though they have three games in hand on third-placed Bournemouth.

A frustrated Moore said of Torquay's late equaliser: "I don't know what it is about second halfs here. We tend to go too deep and give away too many silly free-kicks."

Last six games: Millers WLLWWD, Shrews WLWWWL.

Last time: Millers 1 Shrews 2, April 18, 2009, League Two.

Referee: D Foster (Tyne & Wear).
