I saw the highlights of their match on Saturday v Leeds. Rotherham had no luck whatsoever and are certainly not as bad as their position suggests. It must be a long old season for their fans.

That is mainly down to Kenny. He has turned them around in terms of performance and I imagine a conversation about the transfer window has taken place and he didn't like the outcome so has decided that he doesn't want to remain at the club

Actually he was sacked, I think Phil Collins was the one to break the news to him

I wonder what will emerge as the reasons behind his resignation as I thought that he would be good fit for them.

Perhaps he didn't want a relegation on his cv. Even with over half of the season still to run, it will take a super human effort to keep them up.

So he was in a no lose situation. I would hazard a guess that he has said what players he needs in January and been told there are no funds available.

No WIN situation Surely?

But it didn't look great for them 5 matches ago when he took over

I think it reflects pretty badly on him if that is the case. However I would assume (based on nothing) that he was initially promised funds for transfers and then has been told he will only get them if he sells some of the dross. He has probably since found out that no one will pay for them

11 points adrift at the foot of the table only a fool would take that job now

How come? They are virtually set on relegation so anything that he did would be as was or better than expected. I would think that this is all down to available budget in January and the players he says he needs to offer some hope of avoiding relegation and being proud will not want to just sit and watch the inevitable relegation with his hands tied.

John Barnes ?

Leekbrookgull · Nov 29, 2016

Tony Adams ? Gary Neville ? There is plenty out there.

You missed the obvious ones Steve Cotterell, Paul Ince and Billy Davies. who chase every job.

Leekbrookgull · Nov 29, 2016

Bit harsh on Cotterell,IMHO the other two good call.

I do not like Cotterell as I think that he is a poor manager. He was said to be odds on to become MK Dons manager but they are apparently talking to Hearts Chief Coach. If he doesnt get the job how will others feel knowing that they are an after thought. Perhaps Kenny Jackett is in the running for the job.

Leekbrookgull · Nov 29, 2016

Like many i am no fan of MK altough its newer followers of the club were not part of the "Rape" of Wimbledon,Jacket would appaer to be a better fit,and as to anyone from Scotland is it April 1st ?

... and there's a solid reason why Bet Victor are offering odds of 0/1 on Tony Mowbray taking over.

There's nothing wrong with them seeking employment, even if they stand next to no chance of actually getting the job.

I suppose it's all down to what the owners expect. If they understand that it will probably mean relegation in the short term before the club can progress, then maybe it's still a viable proposition for an ambitious younger, or lower division manager?

They will probably suffer financially with relegation so want to stay up but on the cheap without spending money. in January. That is of course if his departure was due to money or the lack of.
