You would image the way Power works he has been given a nod and a wink, not sure he would approach someone like Evans without being confident he can get his man, may hinge on the type of budget and wages though we can offer compared to what mansfield are prepared to throw at him.
Surprises me that Power is prepared to pay compensation though, must be confident of selling Vigs.
Are we a better proposition than Mansfield ?
We are a bigger club historically (although not much in it) with a bit of potential in the right hands.
Mansfield seem to be trying to flex some financial muscle publically, though. So he'd probably get a bigger budget at Mansfield but playing in front of smaller crowds (well, could be bigger if they are winning and we continue to be shit). Obviously the behind the scenes being a bit of a mess doesn't bother Evans, or else he wouldn't have touched Leeds with a barge pole.
Success here and we'll be pushing 10-15K crowds.
He's got a comfortable gig where he is now as the Mansfield fans and board have clearly bought into the ridiculous notion that he's too big for them, so he can do no wrong. He won't have that here.
