No no no no no - would sooner have Ronnie Jepson, Mark Stimson or even Neale Cooper, maybe Hess but never Steve Evans but I am sitting on the fence..

Everyone is saying give him a chance, if he wins games we'd all be behind him but Shaun Derry is also touted and is far less likely to drag what little reputation we have left through the mud. What makes Evans more suitable than Derry? As far as I'm concerned, Evan's record is fraud, fraud (causing the club to go bust), promotion to football league (with a budget that was ridiculously high but ultimately failed at their main ambition so quickly jumped ship) and almost failed. I haven't seen anything that would suggest he would do well here especially after speaking about us in an unprofessional manner. If he came and kept us up OK, but no more than OK because we'd be worse off later. We need rebuilding now, even if that meant we had to go down to go back up.
