Matt Hamshaw is feeling the pressure as manager of Rotherham United as Huddersfield Town took advantage of the Millers' malaise in a comfortable victory.

Bojan R adulovic, Lynden Gooch and Leo Castledine all had a hand in one another's goals as the Terriers blew their hosts away in the first half of the League One Yorkshire derby. All three goals were impressive from a Terriers perspective, but terrible from Rotherham's.

Grant came into the game under the most pressure of the two rookie managers but the manner of the Millers' performance - not disguised by Sam Nombe's stoppage-time goal to make it 3-1 - in their third straight defeat left Hamshaw looking the more vulnerable.

"If I keep losing games, I'm a manager... I get it," he said. "I know the job, I know what we need, I know what we don't need. That's for me to tidy up.

"I feel under pressure every day. I don't sit here and say I should be here or I shouldn't be here. This job, to me, is a huge honour.

"Every day of my playing career, I felt under pressure. Every day as an academy coach, I felt under pressure. Every day as a first-team coach, I felt under pressure. And every day as a manager, I feel under pressure. But that's what makes me me.

"I'm determined.

"It's easy to be negative. I'll always face up to it, I'll always take hits for my players and I'll always say when the fans are right. And on Saturday they were right – they were right to get on at me and the team.

"We've done that too many times already this season, produced halves of football and if you produce halves of football, you end up in trouble.

"We're in a little bit of trouble at the minute, but I'm well confident in mine and my staff's ability and this group's ability. And when we get through January, that we'll get it right."
