Walters has just confirmed Evans called him on Goals on Sunday on 12:10 - Oct 7 with 6428 views | Darth_Koont | Strictly speaking, Evans makes all the signings doesn't he? It's pretty well documented that he handles all the deals. And as people have pointed out, Evans knows Walters. But overall, the idea that Evans would suddenly after 10 years go over the head of his manager and make a footballing decision on his own is bonkers. | |

Almost as bonkers as thinking its still managers that make the approaches. Standard practice now that the manager gives the DoF or Chairman a list of targets and then someone else makes it happen. | |

Has that phrase been retired now as a mark of respect? | |

Though maybe someone is trying to create friction where there is none. The bane of the 'social media' era. | |

Indeed. Tupically the player talks to the manager though, but I agree on this occasion, Walters knows Evans. No surprise here. | | | |

Didn't Hurst say the other week that Collins text him saying he wouldn't be signing? | | | |

Clearly it's all very individual. With MM he had loads of contacts so he probably contacted quite a lot of managers/people at other clubs himself. Evans would know Walters so it's no major shock he phoned him. Hurst would know Collins after he spent 4 days training here. It all comes down to who knows who. I doubt when we signed Ebanks-Blake that it was ME who made the first move because it wouldn't make any sense. Again, with McAuley it was probably ME. Who do we think Shrewsbury phoned when they wanted Emmanuel? | |

Walters has just confirmed Evans called him on Goals on Sunday on 20:26 - Oct 8 with 4201 views | Wickets | This thread just smacks of some trying to make a mountain out of any molehill, Hurst could have well suggested Evans call Walters or Evans could have asked Hurst shall i approach Walters, truth is all Town managers under Evans have said they talk to the owner regularly . No story here !! | | | |
