1) Haynes and Ponticelli have rarely started this season

2) They’re not youth team players

3) A ‘youth team’ is recognised as a clubs Under 18 side

4) I’m still convinced you’re a parody and are trying to come across as stupid as possible

5) You’ve had a bad weekend haven’t you? You really hoped your favourites Burge and Haynes had bad games but they didn’t, did quite well actually, so you’ve got to let some steam off in other directions

Where were they promoted into the first team from? Never mind-we’ve been over it before and it resorts to silly insults/point scoring.

Burge, Willis and Haynes have nearly 300 first team appearances between them, hardly wet behind the ears youth team players.

Yeah and most of them have been above this league when certainly two of them are at best squad players in this league.

I’ll explain this as simply as possible.

They’re not youth team players. Being in the ‘youth team’ 1 year ago or 6 years ago doesn’t make them youth team players currently as you’ve posted.

If you don’t understand that then I don’t know

Do you also call Mark Robins the Barnsley manager because that’s where he was 6 years ago?

That’s also true however his post said they were ‘youth team’ players implying fans don’t go to games because half of our team is full of 16 and 17 year olds

I’d imagine Alex Ferguson will call Evans up this week and tell him that I know you want to copy my style and look up to me and admire me and want to be me but as a Scot to a fellow Scot pack it in son as your making your self look a prat.

Nothing wrong with having idols but Evans trying to be Alex Ferguson is embarrassing and says a lot about him as a person. I feel sorry for him as the guys not a well man and he’s chairman needs to take a role in this as well and deal with him/help him.

Wouldn't have manager who could get us promoted cos he is a mouth shit. Loved a goal scorer who enjoyed knocking women about. The muddled mind of the football fan

Heard my stepson scream at the Xbox last night “you dicksucker”. Never heard that as a term of abuse before and resolved to use it. Steve Evans is the first recipient.

I still can't believe how he could call that alleged push on their player in the box a concrete penalty.

Ridiculous.

That’s a big generalisation there Macca. A lot of posters on here who don’t like the way Evans behaves, also have no time for people who abuse women.

So, on the basis of your thinking, theres no point in having an Academy and presumably you have no problem with the sales of Wilson, Madison ,Stevenson etc because they are youth team players who shouldn't be in the first team

This link is so informative and deserves to have its own page I bet the Coventry Evening Telegraph jumps on it what I cannot understand is the FA should have given out life bans from football like they did with others that have done this type of thing

His record as a manager in terms of wins is very good.

The consequences to Boston of the time he was involved in were massive. They got their time in the sun as a league club, but now they're down among the dead men.

Personally I'd rather a successful manager who doesn't commit tax fraud. Boston Supporters' Trust didn't want him in charge either.

You might think that having been proven to be a tax fraudster the guy might reel his neck in. That article makes claims about players diving or managers making unwanted comments pretty insignificant by comparison.

Is there anything in the FA or EFL rules that the manager of a team must be a fit and proper person? It only applies to owners & directors doesn't it? That said the football authorities should clamp down on behaviour such as his by any manager. It damages the reputation of the game, something the FA & EFL are very precious about when it suits them.

He might have a decent win rate but his disciplinary record is unsurprisingly poor

Just watched it.

Best thing to do there is to give him a 6 match ban to the stands.

Next time, double it.

You have to feel very sorry for refs at times. Thankless job.

Touchline bans are utterly pointless for me. Sitting in the stand with a better view is hardly punishment at all and nor is a financial penalty. Deduct his team league points, nothing less will even register.

On your last point, I know a lot of posters deny it but I’ve said for some time that our fans have had enough and are at breaking point, which seems to particularly come to a head at away games.

That's bollocks. The reality is that a lot of people going away are purely going for the new ground and day on the piss. Hence the behaviour being a bit rowdy.

I don't have a problem with it personally. It's better than the sanitised theatre like experience you get in the PL or at W*sps.

Edit: having read more of the thread I can't condone abusing women or pointless vandalism. I also abhor the '[place name]'s a shithole, I wanna go home' shite that gets sung at every ground

He bad mouthed Robins on TV to get a reation from the Chairman who would have said something to him so that he could have said "Fuck you then I'm Off" so it made it look better for him

He also publicly criticised the ref. Should be taken to task for that.
