Rotherham boss Steve Evans says he has been told his job is not under threat.

The Scot has delivered the Millers from Sky Bet League 2 to the Sky Bet Championship in just over three seasons at the club, but is just starting to feel the heat from a section of fans after a torrid start to the 2015-16 season.

Evans, who has made 15 summer signings, has overseen four defeats from the opening five league games at an expense of 13 goals against, but insists he has been given the full backing by chairman Tony Stewart.

"We know we have started poorly, you don't need to be a rocket scientist to stand in front of Steve Evans and say that," the Millers boss said.

"But they can't take fight and desire from me. We started poorly in League 2 and we didn't start great in League 1 and the knockers were out.

"Let the knockers continue and we'll get on with business.

"My chairman has re-iterated this week that I will be here for years to come, whatever division we are in, because we manage the football club properly, prudently, and we do it with great affinity for the badge and what it means to everyone.

"Everyone has feelings and if they tell you otherwise they would tell you lies.

"But what is important is a track record of success, a track record of getting it right and a track record of working so hard you get it right."
