    Zil or whatever your name is, there you go again having a dig at a successful outcome.
    Your hatred for Evans is beyond comprehension and it must really be a personal thing between you and he.

    For me he didn't spend and waste an an obscene amount of money, he was presented with it by a chairman who had and fulfilled his dream of promotion.

    Wasting money would have been spending say 2 million on one player. Evans brought in looked at players and got rid asap once he saw they weren't up to speed. How many clubs get lumbered with dead wood they can't offload once they've signed them having given them 2-3 years contracts? Oops! We just have done under Stubbs.

    Have to agree never seen the Evans method used before but he got the desired results, promotion twice and retained Championship status so where's the blame in that?

    What part of Evans role wasn't successful???

    Answers on the back of a stamp I think ?

    Arguably one of the best managers we've ever had.

    He was paid to get results and he did that in fact he overachieved some need to get a grip.

    No contest. This team is weaker and needs to build a team spirit that ensures winning games in the last few minutes of a match or displaying a never say due attitude as in the play off Final before a comparison can be made. Without a credible loan market that we can tap into now, its highly unlikely this team will compare well against the squad of Wembley.
