Rotherham United have reappointed Stevenage boss Steve Evans as manager after sacking Leam Richardson.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

The Millers parted company with Richardson on Wednesday morning, two weeks after their relegation to League One was confirmed.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Evans led the South Yorkshire side from League Two up to the Championship in his first spell in charge between 2012 and 2015.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Scot and assistant Paul Raynor have signed three-year deals.<\/span><\/p>\n

“Leam’s departure was not something we took lightly, but following extensive conversations at board level, it was unanimously agreed that a change of direction was needed to give us the best possible chance of bouncing back to the Championship at the first time of asking,” <\/span>chairman Tony Stewart told the club website.<\/span>external-link<\/title><\/svg><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

“In Steve and Paul, we have two individuals that understand the Rotherham United ‘DNA’ and know what it takes to build a successful team. They have a proven track record of success at a plethora of clubs, including our own.”<\/span><\/p>\n

Evans becomes Rotherham’s third manager of what has been a dismal campaign.<\/span><\/p>\n

Matt Taylor was sacked in November and replaced by former Wigan boss Richardson the following month, by which time the team had slipped club at the foot of the table, a position they remained in for the entirety of his tenure.<\/span><\/p>\n

Relegation was confirmed with a 1-0 home defeat by Plymouth on 5 April and they lost their following two games at West Brom and Swansea.<\/span><\/p>\n

They host Birmingham City on Saturday in their penultimate home game of the season.<\/span><\/p>\n

More to follow.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
