I get the impression from his interview he believes the stick he gets here is the same  as given to all other opposition managers.  Poor deluded fool.  So funny when he was sent off and sat in the main for less than five minutes

He might be an overweight guyliner wearing sweaty who is partial to creative accounting....but he can set up an effective team.
Expecting a very frustrating 90 mins of aggression,  play acting and buffoonery tomorrow during which at some point I hope a game of football might break out.

The man is a waddling employment tribunal.

You might as well appoint Harvey Weinstein (allegedly).

I’d rather be mid-table in L2, than spend the next 30 years pretending I’m not from Grimsby (not that I am, I’m a Meggie)

The appointment of Steve Evans as manager would be the day I refuse to attend town games…

Besides, he’s never come here, and certainly not under Fenty. There’s only room for one tax avoiding megalomaniac…

Not entirely sure that works as a doing word, the verb if you will. Surely, and logically, ‘bottom’ or ‘anus’ would be an adjective in this case?

Go listen to this idiots Post Match interview on Stevenages Youtube channel. We dived for the pen, they should have been 3-0 up after 20 mins, they dominated the game and we had the goal gifted to us.

He’s the most odious man I’ve ever met.

The day after Lincoln city announced that Keith Alexander had a brain tumour he didn’t go training with whichever club he was with, Boston I believe, and ‘offered his services to Lincoln’.

Sadly, his kids are as crooked and narcissistic as him. A few of us made some comments about him online, nothing offensive other than he’s a tax evading eyeliner wearing cheat. We supported different clubs but we all got abusive messages from his kids…very weird that they’d search for him online…

He really is fat, bumbling buffoon!..christ, they were shockingly bad, nowhere near the levels of Bradford, Northampton, Leyton Orient or Doncaster.

Basically, he's a league 1/2 manager who failed to do thing at Leeds, so I wouldn't describe him as 'very good'.

Not forgetting his managerial spell with Boston and the taxman.

Grammar policing is so 2010's.

Not in that case. The odd spliff of a misplaced or missing apostrophe here and there and even “us” shape instead of “our” shape, is ok now. Using “of” instead of “have” is a class A abuse of grammar and always will be.

Probably said before but he always reminds me of an overweight Jim Davidson.


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

Evans is a bit of a pantomime villain, sadly I think the only people who listen to him are refs, line’s people (been on a diversity & inclusion seminar this afternoon, does that validate non binary individuals? ) and 4th officials.

He’s a throwback but one that I prefer to the c**t Woodman.

Steve Evans
Fat illegitimate


In his three stints as Grimsby Town manager spanning over 10 years the club was never relegated and he also guided them to three promotions.
Only 14 managers have reached 1,000 matches in charge of a Football League team by 1998 and Buckley is one of them.

Even if Clifton did make the most of it , which I don't think he did I'm sure that if it had happened at the other end we would have said dive . It's a natural reaction . Still doesn't make him any more palatable.

It’s weird, whilst his teams win, well sort of, Leeds, Rotherham and gillingham would argue different, players never seem to like him.

Remember when Crawley were top but he followed the money elsewhere, the players had a party celebrating his departure…

It's a Patreon episode. I was reluctant to listen to the Brodie episode as I expected it to be Sweeney-esque but I actually ended up feeling sorry for him.

Did Brodie mention players making Evans go to the cash machine to get their wages?  Anything about duplicate contracts with varying wording?

No, but he did say that Evans deals in £50 notes. I didn't know but Brodie was pretty much brought up by his gran after his dad died when he was 6.

He's played for a few bad man managers, he was complimentary about Hurst but had no time for his then sidekick Rob Scott.

Rotherham?  He got back-to-back promotions with them.  Do you mean Peterborough?  I wouldn't take his spell at Leeds as anything to go by either, he went there at the height of the Cellino regime.



Evans is a cretin, a stain on the game and anything that remains of a moral compass in the game itself.  

But he's highly effective at building and setting up sides to be successful.  I don't like his style, his approach or even him.  But you can't argue against his record.
