Prepare for lots of Paul Hurst speculation, bit of a poisoned chalice to save Rotherham to be honest.

If they want someone to preserve their championship status, they'll likely go for a proven championship manager. Too soon for Hurst and too big a leap. If Town were in their shoes, and John McDermott* had just got Rotherham into League 2, do you think we'd all be clamoring for him to be appointed? Doubt it.

They seem to think Steve Evans will be back until the end of the season - I hope so

Unsurprisingly Hurst has been linked by the bookies as 3rd favourite. From Rotherham Advertiser website: "KENNY Jackett has been heavily backed to take over from Alan Stubbs as the next Rotherham United manager. The former Wolves boss was quickly made 4/7 favourite but was then backed down even further to 4/7 with sports specialist bookies BetVictor. Steve Evans is 6/1 and Paul Hurst 8/1 – and they don’t fancy anyone else at this stage. Said BetVictor pokesperson Jack Milner: “The market has already spoken in Jackett’s favour with the opening quote of 4/7 already taken by punters and BetVictor make him the 2/5 favourite to replace Alan Stubbs as Rotherham United’s next permanent manager.” http://www.rotherhamadvertiser.....-in-on-new-boss.aspx

I reckon 8/1 are good odds: he'd be a more ambitious appointment than Jackett. Don't want PH to go though.

Considering we seem to clamour for everyone with any previous association with the club, regardless of how tenuous that link is, I would say there's a high likelihood in such scenario.

Hurst has to see how he's team develop this season and if he makes playoff go for the bigger job .
If Rotherham get relegated I think he should go for it if they want him ,hurst has the potential to be the next Eddie Howe , Rotherham have a bigger budget and fan base And close tto his home

It's taken Hurst six years to be a successful manager.
Rotherham need someone to save them, which is a different scenario to building a promotion winning side.
Time is something he wouldn't get at Rotherham.

Kenny Jackett's a free agent so if he's not at Shrewsbury it's a no brainer he'll get Rotherham isn't it?

If they take applications would Hurst apply? Surely he would.

I understand only 1 win in 13 games is going to put the pressure on a manager so not a shock Stubbs got fired. I suppose the club felt they had to do something but let's face it Rotherham would be most people's favourites at the start of the season to go down. They are a minnow at that level. Not sure what they think Jackett will be able to do with limited resources.

If he does decide to go/Rotherham offer him the job they will have to pay the remainder of his contract etc but what would be interesting is who would replace him ? In my opinion we would need some one very experienced in league football we have just got back into the league and would be disappointed if we went for the cheap option again as we all know what happened last time !!! If he does go he deserves his chance with the club he adores but it would be a shame as he is slowly beginning to establish himself as good up and coming young manger in the game and has brought the club on in recent seasons,especially in finding hidden gems ie Hearn Nielson podge bogle Tait magnay etc etc and plenty of Wembley trips !!!! hope he stays though if not good luck to him UTM

If they were chasing promotion, yes he would go for it,but Paul is nobodies fool. He knows that next season we could be in the same division as Rotherham. Paul has got his eye on a couple of forwards already and is just waiting for the window to open in a few months time to put the final pieces in the jigsaw. He is going nowhere, mark my words.

I can't see Rovverham being particularly interested if I'm honest, they need a short term fix too keep them in the championship for another year for the financial reward before an inevitable downwards spiral I'd imagine. An experienced manager that can grind out results for them I'm afraid, whilst PH guides us too back to back promotions.
Oh Paul Hurst, he use to be a Yorkie but he's alright now.

Not sure what they think Jackett will be able to do with limited resources.
Maybe an eye on next season. Jackett's got decent form in League One. Whoever got that job is stuck with the same squad that has recorded a single win all season until January at least. Big task to even keep them in with a fighting chance. I suppose you could argue that they could, like they did last season, bring in an experienced fire fighter like they did with Warnock last year. But they're probably looking for an appointment with a long term plan in mind.

Who said he was useless? Anyone compared to Greg Pearson or Simon Ford is an improvement but he doesn't fall into the 'gem' category.
