Rotherham United’s quest for a new manager has been prolonged, following the dismissal of Matt Taylor after a significant defeat to Watford. The latest development from the Rotherham Advertiser reveals that interviews were conducted with Leam Richardson and Mark Warburton this week. However, it has been clarified that Warburton will not be taking up the position, though the reasons behind this decision are currently unclear.
The search for Taylor’s permanent replacement at the AESSEAL New York Stadium has yet to yield results, with various names being linked to the vacant role. Leam Richardson remains a viable option, while the potential consideration of recently-sacked managers Michael Duff and Tony Mowbray is uncertain. Gary Rowett has ruled himself out, and Steve Evans lacks unanimous support from the Rotherham United hierarchy.
The urgency to appoint a new manager is underscored by Rotherham United’s battle for Championship survival. Despite engaging with multiple candidates, including an offer rejected by Nathan Jones, the club appears no closer to securing a new manager. A swift appointment would provide much-needed clarity for the players, coaching staff, and supporters in South Yorkshire.
The situation leaves questions about Richardson’s continued consideration and raises curiosity about who will emerge as the primary target for Rotherham United following Jones’ rejection. Only time will reveal the outcome of this ongoing managerial search.
