ROTHERHAM United boss Steve Evans says he is hopeful for the future after his side signed off from the Championship with a shock win against Cardiff City.

It was a crazy end of season game, with chances galore for both sides.

The Millers were the more clinical to secure only their fifth victory of what has been a dismal campaign which saw them finish 24 points from safety.

Braces came from Jordan Hugill and Tom Eaves, with the club’s other forward Sam Nombe also on target.

Nat Phillips and Ollie Tanner scored for the visitors.

Evans said: “Different managers and coaches have different styles. I think the players were quite surprised that we went for three out and out strikers, but we thought we would cause them problems.
