Neil Redfearn will take charge of his first game as Rotherham United manager when they travel to Brentford.
Redfearn, 50, was appointed as the new manager of the Millers last Friday following the dismissal of Steve Evans on September 28th.
It was Rotherham's rise up the league's from League Two to Championship that attracted Redfearn.
He said: "It was a club I wanted to go after from the off because it has had fantastic success in recent times."
Second shot at the Championship for Redfearn
This is Redfearn's third job as a permanent manager. In 2006-07 he managed Scarborough and in 2007 he had a short stint with Northwich Victoria.
Last season he had a spell in charge of Leeds United which lasted until May when he was replaced by German manager Uwe Rosler.
Redfearn described it as 'a great honour' to be the Rotherham manager and continued to say 'it's got a fantastic name in Yorkshire'.
Rotherham are need of a lift, the club are in 21st in the Championship after taking eight points from their first ten games.
Looking at their last game against Burnley, despite it being a 2-1 defeat there were positives to take from the performance.
Battle of the new managers
He does have the perfect game to start in Brentford; the Bees have struggled to replicate the form they showed last season and are in 20th after taking eight points from their ten games.
They have had some managerial changes of their own in recent weeks after dismissing Marinus Dijkhuzien they brought in Lee Carsley until the end of the season. The former Everton midfielder hasn't made a great start to his managerial career with two defeats from two against Birmingham City and Derby County.
Redfearn described the new chapter in Rotherham's history as a 'fresh start' and pointed out he is keen to give every player in the squad their chance to play.
For the game, Rotherham United will be without influential midfielder Lee Frecklington.
