    Steve Evans is a better manager than Barton. He’s like marmite for me Evans. He clearly leaves it all out on the touch line. I think he’s just been given another touchline ban this week but I’ve heard him a few times on talk sport and other interviews away from the game and he comes across intelligent and likeable.
    I’d rather someone like him over someone like Bowyer.

    I think you need to run a system update lol Evans has done nothing in years and his current team are already in a relegation battle

    The thing that irks me about Evans is his ability to cause all the trouble and then act all innocent and hide behind his little puppet Raynor.
    At least if Barton causes it,he doesn’t hide behind anyone.


    Still absolutely detest both of them though.

    I'm expecting them to come and try and slow things down and bully us around. Problem is we lack nous in our team to be wise to their tactics. I'm somewhat fearing a red card, maybe Paudie losing his rag or Watt doing some silly fouls.

    If we don't score early then it could be a turgid 0-0 till about the 80th minute.

    I'm hoping for an early goal and a 2 or 3 nil win but thinking it could easily be 1-1 or something.

    O’Donnell, Threlkeld, Songo’o, O’Connor, Ridehalgh, Watt, Sutton, Gilliead, Cooke, Vernam, Cook. Subs: Robinson, Lavery, Canavan, Kelleher, Cousin-Dawson, Foulds, Scales.

    Still no sign of Eisa after being on the bench last week, has he had another set back.

    I think it's more a case of him disappearing again after being on the bench last week. Hopefully not another setback.

    Edit - I think you must have edited your post as I was replying Broncs!

    Lavery just back from injury but fitter than Eisa? Wow....

    He must be really unfit.

    Post match Adams was asked about him and he said he wasn't fit. Not sure why he was on the bench then.

    With FCD away and Lavery and Canavan still out last week, it was probably just a case of making up the numbers. Bit annoying though to give us all false hope like that:(
