Evans has unintentionally pulled off a masterstroke. 11:30 - May 29 with 2529 viewsLord_Lucan

He has ended up with a manager that is exciting enough for us roller coaster enthusiasts but conservative enough for the merry go round people.

Maybe he is God after all.

Or intentional... what if this is all part of his grand plan *rubs hands together and cackles*

But then that's probably exactly what we needed.

A safe enough pair of hands to avoid major risk of relegation (given the constraints of the ITFC situation). But a bit more spice and mystery than we've had for the last couple of seasons. Freshening up without throwing everything to the winds.

I warming to him and will give him my full support as always.

It will be interesting to see if there are any stalwarts that he simply doesn't rate.

He needs to look at us as a blank canvas and I'm sure he will, one mans meat is another mans poison sort of thing.

It's also been conducted in a way that a fair proportion are convinced that Hurst was Evans' number 1 choice from start to finish of process and we've got our man.

That's also a positive look, whether true or not

It seems hard to dispute that he decided that Hurst was "the" man (or at least someone he definitely wanted to target, interview, discuss the opportunity with) from a very early stage, set his sights on him, built his timetable around him and wouldn't be wavered until he could at least be fully considered.

It is particularly impressive that he has stuck to his guns, even when lots of us (including me) were getting very stressed about the process and how long it was taking. Whether we agree that he's the right appointment or not, that single-mindedness is to be admired. I certainly have more admiration for Evans now we have been through this process.

This is all assuming we now get Hurst, of course - and I'll only believe it completely when it is formally announced...

Yep, keeping calm and unwavering is very good.

Just hope Hurst proves to be the man he expects him to be as we obviously weren't able to interview in as much depth as the other candidates.

I'm concerned for the future of the likes of Blueas, Facters and J2 to be honest. Stalwarts the lot of them, but new broom and all that. It's clear now that he started the process when first contacted - Glasgow and then young Rommers come to mind. Different ends of the age spectrum shows her can be quite ruthless.

I hope, and expect, a few of the un-droppables to be dropped.
