Rotherham sack Redfearn

Rotherham United have sacked manager Neil Redfearn, the club have confirmed. 

Former Leeds head coach Redfearn was only appointed as The Millers boss in October, when he signed a two and a half year deal with the club.

The 50 year old left Leeds at the end of last season after they finished 15th in The Championship.

He then replaced former Rotherham boss Steve Evans, who left Rotherham in September and went on to become Leeds head coach.

Evans had been in charge at the club for over three years.

Redfearn was only in charge of Rotherham for 21 games, but leaves the club languishing in The Championship relegation zone.

They have lost their last two games against relegation rivals Charlton and Bolton, which has led to Rotherham’s decision to part company with their boss.

Millers Chairman Tony Stewart said:

“It is with a heavy heart that we’ve parted company with Neil today. As we all know football is a results driven business and with 16 games to go our aim has to be to retain our Championship status.
“Everyone at the Club wishes Neil well with his future career and thank him for his efforts and endeavour.
“Our focus now is 100% behind appointing a first team manager as soon as possible.”
Rotherham have said they will not be making any further comment until a new manager is appointed.
