It doesn't matter what he says or what anybody at the club says it will always be wrong in some folks eyes - these folk tend to be the statement needers.

He did/does say this kind of thing all the time. Then gets responses on here along the lines of "well bloody do something about it then, you turkey toothed prick". Everything he says/doesn't say, do/doesn't do is now used as a stick to beat him with. I think he's probably taken us as far as he can (I'd love to be wrong though) but he's going nowhere so we might as well all take a deep breath and try not to react to absolutely everything Evatt related.

Trump and Biden taking the piss clearly Have any others done such dodgy pardons in the past or just these two?

I’m sure they’ll be a knock on but I think the midweeks probably are taking the main impact now.

It'd be one thing if he pardoned his son for the things he's been convicted of. It's totally off the charts that you can give someone a blanket pardon for an entire decade. I'm a million miles from an 'MSM = bad' person. But it's pretty shit that places like the BBC, Guardian etc. can't say this for what it is, without trying to blame it on Trump.

I wish he didn’t bother with media performances and focused entirely on the squad and what he says to them to get results that do the PR talking for him. Win every game and put the potter’s wheel on.

attendances will plummet throughout the pyramid

I don’t doubt he cares passionately about BWFC, but I wish this would come over more in these pre-match interviews. The one for tonight on Wanderers TV is a case in point. I wish he was more upbeat. I wish he was more positive. I wish he was more on the front foot. I wish he was more aspirational about how we are fixing current performance issues but mostly I wish he was more empathetic to the fan base rather that semi-resentful that we’re not all happy clappers atm. I don’t want to hear “we’re averaging 2 points a game from the last 11 which is title winning form” - I want to hear “ I absolutely understand the fans’ frustration despite our recent good run. It’s still not good enough. We know our individual and collective performances are not up to their and our expectations so we need to put that right starting on Tuesday”. Or something like that. His malaise in these interviews is symptomatic of performances?

2-1. Charles, Johnston. 19,247 (13,247) Come On You Whites!!!

3pm blackout is up for review again. Hopefully restores a few more 3pm Sat games

Probably a whole new thread in this, certainly those would make a solid top three though I'd offer up Beckford, absolute waste of the outlay on him. His pathological avoidance of aerial contact used to wind me up no end

I saw someone mention Politic earlier, to be fair, he actually isn't doing too bad. 5 in 11 for Dinamo Bucharesti in the Romanian top division this year, they're just 2 points off Champions League regulars CFR Cluj in top spot.

Nigel Jemson will always take that title for me. Albeit only a brief spell.

I preferred a little place a bit closer, that was run by an old couple. Did a nice little burger too.

You’ve spoiled it for me now. I was hoping for plan B at least until minute 70 when the subs come on and then it’s certainly back to plan A

This old pals act is a disaster in the making, scruffy pisshead will be Evatts drinking partner at the most....

Evatt pre match press https://omny.fm/shows/newsquest-sports/press-conference-live-hear-from-evatt-ahead-of-man?in_playlist=bolton-news-sports

Imagine pretending to be Welsh to get international football and it STILL not working. Every right to be depressed.

I have a feeling it will be plan A.

Playing for the wrong team though. Beginning of the season I thought Mansfield might struggle in this league but they spent well, are ambitious and when they’ve lost it’s been narrowly against good teams. They could be our worst nightmare though as they do all the things that trouble our lot well and without GT we might get overrun and outfought. Even if he was playing I think we’d be in danger so it’s going to have to be a top performance from us if we’re going to get a win tomorrow. If we don’t start quickly and match their effort and energy from the off it’ll be a painful night but I assume the lads know what they’re up against and will have a plan - a plan to fight for every ball and to make our passes count so we can hurt them and ideally score first and then keep the pressure on throughout the game. Lads will have to earn their corn tomorrow. Not a game for prima donnas.

'kinell mate, you'll be getting labelled a sexist woman hating misogynistic caveman as well as a racist

I got two off the ticket office no questions nor nowt.

He was plausible as a politician it’s just his party became infested with the terminally stupid.

Heard Adam Senior is going places. Plus I give you Olaf Snorrason, played for Iceland 10 years after we released him, what a waste.

See, I'd say the negativity is coming from the manager with his pre game comments, blaming others post match, publicly thinking about his own future and having a go at the players, playing negatively against the bigger teams, not trying to get a second to beat 10 men away etc. I'd absolutely love it if we had a manager energising the players and fans, rather than Evatt's negativity. He's changed in the last year and rather than coming across as confident, he looks like the pressure has got to him. Think of the boost the fanbase could have with a new manager (if he's a good one). And we've seen it can be successful changing manager mid season - Sunderland, Oxford.... 😑
