Evans..................

Couldn't have happened to a classier guy.

He's done well at Rotherham, and I doubt he'll be unemployed for long, but I'm glad that he's out of the way for now.

Bloke's a walking heart attack waiting to happen, sadly. Proper footballing man, and fair play for that, but somebody close to him needs to have a word to tell him to take a bit of a time out or at least to ease off on the pies.

He was told that millions of times, particularly before the play-off final. He did seem to calm down and he did a lot of good stuff around the club and in the community after the Bratfud incident, in fairness. The meeting this morning was scheduled weeks ago so it's a bit of a surprise. The club press release was cobbled together, makes the ones on our site read like Dostoevsky. Wonder if Raynor's been offered summat by Crawley.

Agree, he breaks into a sweat just lifting his eyelids in the morning.

No, Carsley's taken over at Brentford

It's true that we don't know whether he's walked out or not, but in my experience roughly 90% of managers don't leave of their own volition

How long is that for to the end of the season usually means until we have found somebody better or cheaper and a yes man.

The ideal man for Rotherham would be the little weasel Billy Davies

 

[Reagulls]

Resigned over 'canteen issues' ? Something about 'inadequate portion sizes' and 'no seconds'

perhaps he was caught with a pie in his pocket?

New manager at Rotherham named: Ronnie Pickering.

Did well there and kept them up against the odds last season and got them out of the bottom three this season. If it was for footballing reasons I think it might come back to bite them.

 

[Ernest]

Who is Ronnie Pickering and why do we have to be scared of him ?

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

Is it National Appoint A Nobody As Manager Day ?

 

[Prince Monolulu]

One Ron Pickering, there's only one Ronnie Pickering.

 

[One Teddy Maybank]

Evans for QPR?? [emoji23]

Not everyone's favourite I know (and that's putting it politely!) but I think he's very unlucky to lose his job like this - he's done a very good job for Rotherham. They wouldn't be in this division without him, I don't think.

How can you declare that he's unlucky to lose his job, if we don't know WHAT he's lost it for?

He "lost" it because he wants the Peterborough job.

Ah...

Fair enough.

That'll go well.

Even though Graham Westley was appointed to the job a week ago?

According to the Beeb, yes: "Persistent rumours linking Evans with the Peterborough job could be behind this parting of ways."

i think Brentford ,Shirley can't go to P'Borough after they have just appointed westley.....

No, he can't go to Peterborough, but maybe he had a falling out with his chairman because he was denied the chance to talk to Peterborough about the vacancy, or maybe the chairman found he'd been talking to Peterborough behind his back. Who knows?
