Watched him closely today and thought his all round game was quality. Great movement and touch & some excellent passing, doesn’t get bullied off the ball either.
Ok he missed 2 very good chances (why did he not go for a diving header with that one second half) which could have cost us against a better team but he will come good with regular game time. Him and Burgzorg looked a threat all game. Has to start ahead of Ward going forward

Did very well today.
Quite impressed with him, a bloody pest of a player…

It's time we gave lads more of a chance, then the 10 or so minutes they've been getting as a sub. Granted in this case it was forced, but I for one am glad. Frank Worthington was nowhere near the player he became in 69/70 when he got his first full senior appearance, we still had Dobson and Leighton, and of course I'm not saying Harratt's got anywhere near the same ability.
My point is players rarely get the chance these days. Squads are bigger, they get sent out on loan, and the money makes the risk not worth it if they fail. When you've got a manager like Warnock though who can get another 20% or more from players, there's no better time to chuck them in the deep end.
Even if they fail, they may or may not, impress others enough to add to any transfer fee.

Loved his interview on radio Leeds . He’s salt of the earth isn’t he ?

Hope to god it’s not Hughes as new manager as Harrett absolutely hated him from his time at Sadford.

Was impressed with him today, and thought he linked up quite well. Certainly feel we looked more of a threat with him and Burgzorg than Ward

Fucking love a pest of a forward.
Remember watching Kachunga on his debut against Brentford when he was upfront due to Wells being injured. Proper pest... loved it.

We didn't miss Ward at all today. Harratt did well.

Thought the game passed him by for the first 25 minutes but after that he was superb. Just a shame he didn't score. Bet Rotherhams CB's were sick of the sight of him, he was an absolute pest and knocked them about.

Bet Rotherhams CB's were sick of the sight of him, he was an absolute pest and knocked them about. I agree with that totally. He seemed to really start to enjoy the physical tussle with his Centre Half. First time I’ve really see him play and I’m very impressed. |

Just for a bit of contrast, I thought he was one of our worst two or three players today, and demonstrated exactly why, despite everything, Danny Ward gets straight into the XI if he's available.
Won very little in the air or on the ground, knocked off the ball really easily, gave it away when in control, sluggish at full pelt, and his decision making and quality in the box was woeful.
Looks like at this stage of his career he needs a good run of regular games in League 1 to me 🤷♂️

Despite all the well deserved praise from today he is absolutely dire in the air, he needs to work on that.

When I first read the post about him being one of the worst players on the pitch I thought it was April 1st. I guess the other 2 are Hogg and Helik

Warnock showed a lot of faith in him playing him against a Rotherham team we really need to beat at home. I was impressed by his performance today. I would’ve been livid at his missed chances had we draw or lost, but that’s experience going forward and I’m sure nerves at trying to impress. If I was 21 playing in front of 19,000 people, I’d miss f$@king everything.

I actually thought he did well in the air for a small guy.
First half he was average
2nd half he came alive
Should have scored 2
Seems quite strong aswell, he seems to have a bit of a chip on his shoulder too, which in his case, doesn’t seem to be doing him any harm
Well done kian

Hope to god it’s not Hughes as new manager as Harrett absolutely hated him from his time at Sadford. The Mark Hughes rumour is just bizarre. Why would we employ a current League 2 manager who is hardly pulling up any trees at Bradford and whose managerial track record is poor? |

He was absolutely fine today, but it was very Danny Ward in the sense that he ran around a lot, but struggled in front of goal. If Ward had missed that chance first half the pitchforks would have been out. Interesting to see how Harratt gets on against stronger opposition.

Why would we employ a current League 2 manager who is hardly pulling up any trees at Bradford and whose managerial track record is poor? Schofield followed by Buzz? Or we can't afford to pay a decent one. Why couldn't we find a striker? This is Huddersfield Town  |
