Rotherham United Football Club, nicknamed The Millers, is an English professional football club based in Rotherham, South Yorkshire, that competes in EFL League One, the third tier in the English football league system.
Founded in 1925 as a merger between Rotherham Town (1899) and Rotherham County (1870), the club's colours were initially yellow and black, but later evolved into the more traditional red and white. Rotherham United play their home games at New York Stadium, a 12,000 capacity all-seater stadium, having previously played since its foundation at Millmoor for 101 years. Since joining the football league back in 1925, Rotherham have spent the majority of their time in Division Three (League One) and Division Two (Championship). They have never played in the top tier of the English Football League system.
The Millers featured in the inaugural League Cup final against Aston Villa in 1961, and won the 1996 Football League Trophy. They also achieved two separate back to back promotions in 1999/2001 and 2012/2014.
