July 31, 20233 yr Evatt on BBC RM said watch social media tomorrow for news on Matheson. Also said we were after a couple of more but suggested nothing imminent.
July 31, 20233 yr 11 minutes ago, Lt. Aldo Raine said: I'm not sure he's quite what i had in mind But are you ITK? Evatt was live on Radio Manchester earlier tonight and pretty much let it slip @TrickyTrotterbeat me to it Edited July 31, 20233 yr by Leyther_Matt
July 31, 20233 yr I said it a few weeks back that we needed players like this, in these positions and was called a ton of things.
July 31, 20233 yr Interview starts about 5 minutes in. Also said "There isn't a job that could tempt me away. This club is for me. I want to achieve everything I want to achieve in the game with this football club. It's as simple as that." 🤍 https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p0g01045 Edited July 31, 20233 yr by Cheese

People were more critical of comments like this from you “Unpopular opinion time, I'm not sure Ian Evatt has the strength of character to do whats needed (i hope he does). That would be to gut almost the entire team, sell and loan out as many as possible keep the rest for rotation/and injury cover.”

Unwaveringly on message, positive about everything that is happening, inclusive in his rhetoric - the man can't be faulted even by a grumpy old fucker like me. It was pure Billy Grahamesque evangelism. And I believe.
July 31, 20233 yr 5 minutes ago, Traf said: He was a bit sketchy about Declan John, I thought. Yeah was a tough question to deal with, surprised they asked it. Clearly Evatt doesn’t think DJ is good enough but for media he has to come out with a positive spin “there’s always a way back into the team” etc To be fair DJ was frozen out once and came back in ( didn’t really do much) but I’d be surprised if he played again after being frozen out twice… Doubt any other clubs will offer him a similar wage so he probably is just sitting on his contract until he is a free agent
August 1, 20233 yr Will Matheson be a B team signing? IE's reiteration that we're scouring foreign markets for players is interesting.

He's only 20, not 21 till October, so I THINK he wouldn't be counted as a number on squad rosters. So could be used, or not, in the first team squad without eating a place.

From those clips, he looks like he has the qualities and attributes we’ve been looking for; physical enforcer who also looks athletic, skilful, got a good pass on him and will be box to box. Excited to see how he fits in.

He'll be a B Teamer but one of a couple this year that I could see finally getting some decent playing time, at least in a few cup games or from the bench. Matheson, Khumbeni, Conway and possibly a forward or two.

The fear is that if these players don’t get a chance in the first team that they’ll just walk and go somewhere else. Certainly I can’t see Matheson being happy just to be in the B Team here once he’s proved himself again.

We'll find out later today, await the moody blue lighting and the shady music. What was wrong with a player sat in the stands with scarf above his head!
