Fans play against ex-footballers
Rotherham United fans had the chance to play against former star players on Sunday as part of a bid to raise �1m to save the club from bankruptcy.

A fee of �60 enabled the fans to play 15 minutes of football against the All-stars team.

Former players include the club's current boss Alan Knill, as well as Stewart Talbot and Imre Varadi.

Earlier this month, Sheffield United offered to pay the wages of their players currently on loan at Milmoor.

Rotherham must raise �1m in the next few weeks, or they will go bankrupt and drop out of the Football League.
