The former Sunderland manager was sacked at the Stadium of Light in November last year with the Black Cats five points off the automatic promotion places.
The former Charlton Athletic, Bradford City and Bolton Wanderers boss has been linked with a number of high profile jobs in League One since leaving the managerial hot seat on Wearside.
After winning their first two games under caretaker manager Andy Butler, Rovers' form has nosedived which has seen them fall out of the play-off places.
