Anything is possible in football and as much as they have a personal/working relationship, losing 3 on the bounce where some points were definitely expected, just might be the last straw for big T.
I wouldn't be at all surprised if he sacks them both should it be another defeat.
You would like to think that there's a plan in place already to replace Evans should Tony call it time.
He should have gone after Cheltenham defeat.Quote:

Others should be retired.
One thing to be certain of………there will be no plan.

I do hope so Brin. We've gone backwards a decade and I don't see a way back anytime soon even with Big Steve and PR gone. I sincerely hope we acquire a figurehead manager this time and I would love it to be Richard Wood. This may be the chairman's last chance to get some semblance of stability. I certainly wouldn't be upset if the club were put up for sale too whilst we're at it as I have no love for for how Tony has wasted so much of our resources by making ridiculous decisions.
I'm not going to call for anyone to lose their job but I think his position is getting as close to untenable as is possible, a large number of fans have turned and now see Steve Evans for what some of us always did, it'll take a miracle turnaround for him to get them back on board. The team have been getting loudly booed in several games over the last couple of months which I can't really ever recall happening, and then there's the season ticket holders who aren't even turning up. I think any other manager would've gone after Barnsley or Crawley away. If the Bolton and Blackpool games had gone ahead I think we might also have another couple of defeats to our name. I fear the atmosphere at New York could get really nasty tomorrow if we get a repeat of boxing day.
A few weeks ago I thought he had a couple of games left, but I'm starting to think TS is going to put his fingers in his ears and give him the January window. If he was going to sack him, he already would've.
Probably not. Stewie won't want to kick his chum out over Christmas.
With a window looming the chances are Evans will be given another month or two to demonstrate his er,.. class.
Not.
A.
Prayer.
Only if we get thrashed.
