Since Matt Taylor was sacked on November 13, a number of names have been thrown into the conversation, but who will be the next Rotherham United manager?\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As the search drags on, the Millers sit mired in 23rd, seven points adrift of safety, despite caretaker boss Wayne Carlisle picking up a crucial point against Leeds on November 24.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The club have confirmed that Carlisle will remain in charge for Saturday\u2019s game against Wayne Rooney\u2019s Birmingham City, but he appears to be out of contention for the permanent job.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Speaking after the club\u2019s crushing 4-1 defeat to high-flying Hull City, he said: \u201cI think it will be someone else, I\u2019ve got to be honest.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“The chairman and the club, I think they looked elsewhere in the last few days from what I can gather.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The club have conceded 11 goals in their last three away games and have only got one of their 12 points away from home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Former Southampton boss Nathan Jones has been heavily rumoured for the job, and remains the odds-on favourite at 2\/1, according to William Hill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, BBC Sheffield journalist Rob Stanton recently gave an update on the situation, tweeting: \u201cBeen asked about Nathan Jones and Rotherham given bookies odds. My understanding is Jones won\u2019t be the next #RUFC boss.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Another name that has been circulating is former Wigan boss Leam Richardson, who has been without a job since departing the Latics just over a year ago.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Richardson guided Wigan to the League One title in the 2021\/22 season, but was sacked after the club struggled to adjust to life in the Championship. His odds are set at 5\/2 according to William Hill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Former Millers boss and a man infamous in this part of the world, Steve Evans has also been linked with the job, after his Stevenage side have defied all expectations to sit fourth in League One.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Scottish manager enjoyed a hugely successful spell during his three-year tenure at Rotherham between 2012 and 2015, winning back-to-back promotions to take them to the Championship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Chris Wilder is the final name on the list, with the 56-year-old being without a job since leaving Watford in the summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Although best remembered for his time as Sheffield United boss, where Wilder led his boyhood club from League One to the Premier League, the former right-back made 158 appearances for Rotherham during his playing days, the most he made for any club.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Odds for Next Rotherham Manager (according to William Hill)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nathan Jones – 2\/1<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Leam Richardson – 5\/2<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Chris Wilder – 5\/1<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Wayne Carlisle – 10\/1<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Steve Evans – 16\/1<\/p>\n\n\n\n
