Steve Evans - Clown!

[RailwayRowdy]

He was the / if not one of the worst managers in our history.

 

Micky Adams didn't do too badly with the same owner and I doubt Aspo is failing....

 

One common denominator, Brown was an absolute failure as a manager, he can take his patronising 'little Port Vale' views with him too.

Denis Butler would push him close for that title.

I think the reason threads go off topic is because if anyone mentions the owner at all (and they will given he is the owner and therefore has influence over everything that is discussed on this forum) your hair trigger attack dog defense of Norman kicks off.

 

I think you are over thinking things... thinking people are attacking Norman when they are not necessarily. They are just expressing an opinion which they are allowed.

 

Just let the threads flow yeah, your name is always there when they go off topic due to your over defense of the owner. People are finding it a bit annoying.

 

With regards Evans... terrible bloke. Will always remember the video of the Crawley players singing and dancing when they found out he was leaving them.

 

And yet you still carry on off topic ranting in a thread that has absolutely nothing to do with him in the slightest. Build a bridge mate!

Didn’t know him but he had a much better win record of around 11% more. Now that is desperate.

The Irony!!

 

Here is the video of the Crawley players celebrating Evans departure.

 

 

I always wondered whether he was one of those managers that portrayed an image of being an idiot to the media but internally might have built an "us vs them" mentality, effectively bringing the team together.

 

This video seems to prove the opposite... he is just a full time t*t.

Managers don’t have to be liked to be successful. I once saw an interview with Martin O’Neill where he said that he would run through a brick wall for Brian Clough, but he wouldn’t cross the road to speak to him. By all means express an opinion of Evans as a person, but don’t let that view influence your opinion of his attributes as a manager. Like him or not he generally gets results, hence his continued employment.

He does get results albeit with a high player turnover so really this is a nothing thread,Evans is just playing the game,it is what it is..... Nothing.
