Just saw this. Very torn about this one... On the one hand he might well be the right person to get us out of the pit we find ourselves in. On the other hand, he's Steve Evans.
I bet the buffet suppliers of Swindon are rejoicing at the thought? |

It was only on SSN within the last 30 minutes so will be pretty recent news for them to talk about
Thanks...Interesting.. Doubt we'd make an approach without a nod from Evans that he wants to talk.. |

Interesting in that they want him to stay so strongly... or Interesting in that they think it would appease our fans by approach Evans?? |

On one hand, I can’t believe Power, of all people, is going to be the one to break our near 40 year record of not poaching managers employed by others. On the other, I also can’t believe an official approach would be made if both us and Evans hadn’t informally spoken and mutually indicated interest. |

FWIW I cannot say I would be happy, satisfied as a step in the right direction maybe....
Power and Evans - that really isn't going to work is it?

Steve Evans signed Power for Boston, which I didn't know.

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 better proposition than Mansfield if he has the budget and control as our crowds and what not are far superior. However if we are operated like we were last season then we are no proposition at all, all depends on budget and level of control.

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. |
