Five goals.
The number the Millers have conceded on the road all season, by February, with just 19 shipped in total in the league.
An incredible record to date and one that everyone in the team has played a part in.
As well as a cohesive team ahead of them, both our goalkeepers have been in stunning form this term and whoever has the number one shirt has the full confidence of everyone in the team.
Right now, Josh Vickers is that man and he isn’t half taking his chance!
After picking up the supporter’s vote against Morecambe on Tuesday, he carried on his strong form in Devon, with a crucial second half save denying Ryan Hardie an equaliser for Plymouth Argyle, when played through on goal.
Michael Smith’s 63rd minute strike was enough for all three points for the Millers, with Vickers and the defence holding firm once again.
The goalkeeper took the acclaim again, with 48.7% of the 1,083 votes cast. Also nominated were Michael Smith, Ollie Rathbone and Ben Wiles.

Background
This poll is supported by our friends at PA Entertainments and Terrace Threads.
PA Entertainments have been long-term supporters of the football club and were hailed for their recent work which involved them lighting up the AESSEAL New York Stadium in the colours of the NHS and more recently, with the image of a poppy for Armistice Day.
Supporters may be aware that we recently welcomed Terrace Threads on-board, who took up the option of sponsoring our newly-produced ‘Goal Gifs’ for the duration of the 2021/22 campaign.
Following discussions between the two parties, they have collaborated to give supporters an added incentive to vote for our Twitter Man of the Match Poll, with fans who cast a vote and retweet our social media poll automatically entered into a prize draw to win a Beanie Hat from Terrace Threads.
The PA Entertainments Man of the Match and the lucky winner of the Beanie Hat will be revealed on a Monday morning following a Saturday fixture or midday on the day after a midweek fixture.
The next opportunity for supporters to pick their Man of the Match is on Tuesday, when the Millers visit Shrewsbury Town in Sky Bet League One.
