Jamie Yates (born December 24, 1988 in Sheffield, England) is a young English footballer currently playing for Rotherham United in Football League One. Yates was a regular in the Rotherham United Youth Team and later in the Millers' Reserves, and was given first team squad number 27 on November 18, 2006. After a few appearances on the bench, Jamie was handed his first team debut on 17th March 2007 against Brentford, making a very positive impact on the right wing.
"Jamie has been knocking on the door for a while now" said Manager Mark Robins. "He was outstanding today. He's come in under difficult circumstances and has shown he's going to be a player for the future." Yates also started the following game against Crewe, and signed a permanent professional contract with the millers on Friday 20th April 2007. Yates came on as a sub in Rotherham's League Two game vs Morecambe, he scored 2 goals, and is a hot prospect for the future. On the 26th April 2008, a 45 yard wonder volley was scored by substitute Yates to condemn Mansfield Town to non-league Football. Following the 2007–08 season, he signed a new one-year contract with Rotherham in May 2008.[1]
