Evatt potted?

Never going to last this week, needs to lower the arrogance in his next job
Looks like Brett will be back Radio Lancs on Sat.

Yet you spent most of last season squawking for Critchley (who played a similar formation and style of football to Evatt) to be sacked!

I did yes should never have come back here as I was proved right in the end a shocking decision by Sadler (he made a few)
But that’s not the question here is it the previous poster said he was sacked when we were 8th when clearly he wasn’t or are you saying the same?

I’m just pointing out your failed logic.
If it was up to you Critchley would have been sacked last season despite BFC being higher in the league than Bolton are now and with a far lower budget.
Yet you describe Evatt’s sacking as ‘crazy’!

Evatt is a far better manager/coach than Critchley ever will be and I still think one day soon he’ll return here.
I also think Bolton would have comfortably secured a play-off spot this season had they kept Evatt they probably still will for the new man coming in as they are a strong team.

He's won 1 promotion and taken them to 2 play offs, narrowly missing out at Wembley last season. It's utter madness but I'm glad, I have a lot of respect for Evo and none for that club. I'm sure he'll benefit from a little time out of the game and then have a host of clubs wanting him in the summer.

💯
 
As good as we think Evo might be he was on a hiding to nothing at Bolton with the fans turning against him and probably not getting a tune out of the players either, but unfortunately there’s no way ba k from that despite the probable backing from the board. We’ve experienced here a few times recently.
 
He might have had a bit longer were it not for his belligerent attitude. I like Evo given his ties with Blackpool but there's no doubting that he's hard work at times. It also sounds as if he'd lost at least part of the dressing room so, as others have said, it was an inevitable really.

No, at 3.15 on the last day of the season, we were in the playoffs...

At 3.15pm on the last day of the season you were on your way home pissed off because we'd just lost 3-2 from 1-0 up and blown any chance. They should have left Critchley in the park and ride at Reading if he was going to be sacked anyway after two league games of this season. That's what has buggered us up this year.

For Evatt he looked and sounded knackered after they almost blew their lead against Barnsley in the 2nd leg of the play offs. He's lost a load of weight and I'm not sure if that's a lifestyle choice or the job getting to him.

Is he fuck a better coach than Critchley he's been a failure at Bolton despite having spent a fortune and not being able to get out of this league which Critchley did in his first full season.
Despite low crowds and a bottom four budget he easily kept us in the Championship.

Oh and Evatt was another three at the back man our previous coach got slated for.

The hatred of NC is unjustified.

True enough. I'd forgotten it was an early kick off.

I had a great time at Leyton Orient, Port Vale, Cheltenham, Burton Albion, Lincoln, Wigan, Stevenage, Cambridge last season.

Numerous occasions last season we played the exact same way away from home and the performance was utterly abysmal. NC got away with murder and should have been potted in December of that season.
 
Surprised he lasted as long as he did, Bolton fans have wanted him out for ages. Never recovered from the play off final loss to Oxford never turned up for that one.

As said previously above one promotion and 2 play off final defeats he’s hardly failed has he?
And they haven’t really spent a fortune have they? A lot more than us yes but that’s no surprise they pay bigger wages yes but their gates are more than twice ours.
Like I said I still think they'll get in the play offs this season as they are a decent side.
Everyone has an opinion on Critchley mine is he was a very poor manager and shouldn’t have been re-appointed back here.
He won’t last the season out at Hearts just wait and see many fans already want him gone.

They haven't spent a fortune but a lot more than us. Yet on the other thread about who's spent what table you say it proves you need to spend for success.
Make your mind up.

Evatt was a failure with his budget.

Well I can message my Bolton mate and he'll reel of all the away disappointments he's been to over the last couple of seasons also.
He's wanted Evatt out for the last 18 months.

It’s all depends on what you consider to be a fortune.
Birmingham have spent a fortune for a league one club coincidence they are top of the league?
Bolton have spent decent money but it’s nowhere near a fortune.
I’ll say again I still think Bolton will finish in the playoffs wether they go up or not remains to be seen.
And yes you do need to spend to get success as I said previously 4 of those top 5 clubs on that chart are currently in the top 4 right now.
Look where we are in terms on both the chart and league position that kind of gives it all away.
And yes for the record I know we have spent some money.

Message him now then and ask him if he wanted him out on the way to the play-off final? 😂

They fell off from the start of last year for automatic but it’s only got bad for him since the start of this season…

I don't really give a toss about Ian Evatt the manager.

My comment was the comment you said about it being unjustified hatred. I disagree with the word hatred, I don't hate him. I hated his football, it was abysmal at times to watch. So boring.

Or the Johnstones Paint thing.
 
Too good for them anyway.
Wish him all the best, a Blackpool legend that ill always have time for.
 
Very limited player who did his best with what he had and turned out good for us .

I'm another who works with a Bolton supporter ,says he ean out of ideas ,failed to adapt .Consensus in those parts is that he had to go
