Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted July 1, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted July 1, 2020 Just watched the interview. We now have an interesting and exciting interviewee, just need a more classy interviewer who can avoid asking the same question 3 different ways. Welcome Mr Evatt, looking forward to the new season now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Obviously FV, not him) Start a fresh throughout and build a team from top to bottom and inside out based on his philosophy. I hope he gets to make those decisions and bring in who he wants.

boogs Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 More than happy with this. I'm wary of using the phrase "it feels right" as it's what I said with Hills appointment but it does. Let's give him our backing and fingers crossed we'll be on the up with some easy on the eye football played along the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will draw the line if we look like Reading in their last couple of visits here, when their goalie just refused to clear his lines from 1st minute to last, and every time he got the ball it was our best chance to get possession. That is just fannying about for the sake of it and its not football. You see goals conceded week after week because the keeper thinks he can play and I'd hate us to play that way.

bolton va va Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 Impressive interview, he seems very sure of what he wants which should make the player recruitment interesting. & well done FV, for not trying to please thicketts who want someone as manager just because they used to play for us ( Lee should be out now but i'd keep the others who know the youngsters for some continuity ) & for not just going for the cheaper out of work options - which shows we're not completely skint !! Good luck Ian Evatt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kent_white Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 Right - new manager cards in the table time. I'm really chuffed with this appointment - but I don't think he'll be with us for very long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted July 1, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted July 1, 2020 Evatt ain’t getting poached until we are at least top 6 in league 1. if that’s 18 months time, thanks and good luck - but I’d be annoyed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's give him our backing and fingers crossed we'll be on the up with some easy on the eye football played along the way. I have to say I was buzzing when Hillcroft joined (I like Flitcroft and thought it was a dream team - still feel sorry for him getting sacked coz of Hill), and I was buzzing for Parky joining, and Lennon. When all 3 spoke to the media initially I thought they sounded absolutely perfect for us. So what Evatt said today counts for nothing. The previous 3 managers proved they couldnt organise a team to play to their strengths, but I'm as convinced as I can be that this one can be a manager that others envy us for, instead of feeling sorry for us or taking the piss. Bring on the new era. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This fella has implemented his way of playing at a non-league club and he is saying the same things on his arrival here, i believe he will put his methods in place, he's the real deal, he will only bring in players that want to play his way and that will do for me. Freedman wanted us to play possession football without the ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
