NEIL Warnock, who Blackburn Rovers have given consideration to about becoming their new manager, will not be staying at Rotherham United.
The 67-year-old led the Millers to Championship safety after his appointment in February on a short-term deal until the end of the campaign
But Rotherham have confirmed that Warnock, who wants to achieve a record-breaking eighth promotion next season, will not be extending his stay at the New York Stadium.
A Millers statement reads: “Following lengthy and protracted discussions over the past two weeks, Rotherham United can confirm that Neil Warnock will not be the manager of the club going forward.
“We would like to place on record our thanks to Neil and his support staff for the 16 games that they led the team at the end of the 2015/2016 campaign, and wish Neil, Kevin (Blackwell) and Ronnie (Jepson) health and happiness for the future.
“We will be looking to release details of a new managerial appointment in due course.”
