    Send for Evans

    Cancel the chat with the Shrewsbury man and send for Evans.

    If you are in L1 or L2 and desperate for promotion at any cost then there is only one man.

    Forget about what happened and get Steve back as there is absolutely nobody with a better record.

    Double his pay if he gets us promoted and get him in as soon as possible.

    Shut the door on the idiotic Technical Committee and chuck the super computer out of the window.

    Send for Evans and lets get going.

    You won't see Steve smiling after a defeat..He will be effing and jeffing,snapping and snarling.

    We don't want the players to be liking the manager we want them wanting to keep their jobs.

    Wake up and smell the coffee TS...Send for Evans

    Ring me to discuss if needs be.

    Why is there a pie eating contest. How would fat boy slim manage without the loan window. Evans & Warnock told you before speak with forked tongue.

    But do agree we're to good a loser at the moment. I always worked better with a Mr nasty but fair in charge.

    Thought last night played with some pride & passion. Warnock used all our luck up last season.

    What's costing us is only having one striker good enough at the club in D Ward. Blackstock do the right thing & retire. Yr not up to league football now.

    Maybe some fans, rightly or wrongly, did want rid of Evans because they thought he wasn't capable of managing in the Championship. But surely nobody can question his credentials for getting success in league one and league two. The fact is that we've gone downhill since he left and despite claims (probably true) that he over-relied on loan signings and churning players, we still had a stronger core to the squad back then than we've had since. Having said all that, I very much doubt he'll be coming back for reasons with which most are familiar.

    Problem is that if he does get us up first time we will be in the same state as now. SE is a great motivator, but, and here's the rub, I don't think he is technically astute enough for the championship. He can however, spot a player, but then seems to pee them off with his tactics and personality. Allegedly Pringle, Arnie and Morgan would have stayed but for SE. We also don't know the real reasons why he went. No Kempo, if we are going to go with someone with past Miller connections, I would personally stick with Hurst.

    I remember when Evans first came him and Tony s was spouting off if you want promotion you get Steve Evans. (Nothing has changed)

    Pringle has said after Wembley the vlub told him he was going to get a new contract but it never materialised to the last second id that is Evans chairman or commitee fault who knows but it was in the press pringle used to go to Evans house for dinner.

    Arnason struggle in the championship with Rotherham or move back to your home land and play in the champions league. (Think we know the answer)

    Hurstie has done nothing wrong really so far but you can't sit there in confidence he will have you up there were you can with evans

    I don't suppose we will ever learn the full story about Evans departure and dealing with players(and why should we?). However, I cannot see TS going back for him. That ship has sailed and we are now looking at building again. Who knows who the next appointment will be and if it will be successful. Funny thing football. For example, less than 15 months ago Barnsley were looking at League 2. They'd plucked a manager from Oldham and he had lost 8 games on the trot. They recover and he then goes to a "bigger club". His assistant takes over and the rest is history.

    It would appear that Hursty is getting the managerial fundamentals right so perhaps he could do well. Worth a try if we are to go down the past player/manager route.

    Don't rule out the "Lincoln Brothers"
    Respected people in football say they have completely restructured that club and it is now being run as though it was a Championship outfit.
    Exactly what we need.

    Stevo will only come back to NYS with the Stags. Beggers belief that anyone wanted Evo to go, just astonishes me what some so-called fans want in a manager. Well now you know the flip side of the coin eh!!
