Rotherham United's first team squad returned to training today ahead of the new 2009/2010 campaign.

The players were put through their paces by boss Mark Robins, Assistant John Breckin and First Team Coaches Steve Taylor and Nick Daws as the squad gear up in preparation for another League Two season.

Last year's players were joined by new signings Tom Pope, Nicky Law and Kevin Ellison as they were introduced to team mates for the first time since their transfers in the summer.

Following a light a light warm-up the players were given a gruelling half hour against the bleep machine at a sun drenched Aurora Sports Club.

Rotherham kick-off their pre-season in just over a fortnight with a home game against Walsall at Don Valley Stadium, Saturday 18^th July, kick-off 3pm.
