    My comments are aimed at how much we should take what Evans says as gospel on this subject, I'm not being anti-cellino. People can believe what they want. You can make your own minds up as to why he was there.

    Perhaps he just wanted to see how his Manager performed in a half time team talk, which players seemed up for it etc. Sounds plausible.

    But then, when you have a chairman with a reputation for meddling in team affairs its also plausible that staff are given a palatable line to feed to journalists and know that being the snitch might have consequences. Conspiracy theory or just std PR practice?

    If you think Cellino is the clubs saviour you'll believe the former, if you think he's the anti-christ you'll believe the latter.

    If it was over the top I'd say something, if it was just ffs or similar or a one off probably not.

    Depends where your sitting as well I suppose. In any other stand but the family stand you havent really got a leg to stand on IMO. Although maybe not nice, you expect to hear swear words in an environment such as the footy <ok>

    Morning Doha, perhaps Cellino will respect someone that is standing up to him. Redfearn did it too late, and went from one opposite to the other.

    Doha in leather gear does not bear thinking about <laugh>

    If youre sensitive about your kids hearing swear words, dont bring them to a footie match or the mall, or let them watch tv or go to school, sit on public transport or access to the internet. They should be fine then <ok>

    Afternoon all,

    I think you've got to realise that Evens walked out of Rotherham because he wasn't happy with them. If he's stipulated that he won't take interference from Cellino, and Cellino does interfere, then Evans has got an easy lump of cash to collect for constructive dismissal. I have no doubt in my mind that he'd walk. Picture in your mind how Redders and Evans would stand up to Cellino. Redders would be a dour barsteward & get all huffy. Evans would employ an element of charisma & jocularity to get his point across. I think Evans' approach would be less confrontational & therefore more likely to be heeded by Cellino (or anyone for that matter). Not one single person has come out & said that we still have this issue with Cellino. Not even 'a source close to the club' or any of that nonsense. It's just red-top stirring with absolutely no substance. And of course, spread by the vitriolic, bile-spitting Anti-Cellino mob.

    Re. the age for kids to go to the game - it's not just about age, it's whether they actually want to go or not. For example, my kids faced the prospect of going to see Partick Thistle in freezing cold Glasgow. Not exactly something to look forward to for a wee kid. Not when their pals at school all supported Rangers, who were winning eveything that moved at the time. Solution? Lots of coke, burgers, pies & sweets :D Worked with the youngest, as he'll still go to a Jags game with me. The eldest still 'supports' Rangers, although I regularly ask him who the manager is & he hasn't a clue.

    Both were delighted to go to Scotland games & Leeds games when we moved down to Wetherby, but they were a wee bit older then, although still at Primary School. Still had to buy them scoff, but it was difficult not to since I was scoffing myself!

    Good morning to Matt and Neil and co from a sunny Bardsey
    Well it had to happen Redders who has won one game in his period in charge at Rotherham surprise surprise is now blaming Evans for his demise.When Evans left they had just beat Brum away and Cardiff at home now they are not good enough.It doesn't surprise me in the least to see him blaming anyone but himself
    Who will be the first to bite the bullet my monies on Redders
    Even Mourinho is under the cosh will he get a mind boggling settlement pay out of many millions or will he stay if I were the owner I would keep him and if they go down Mourinho the special one won't be so special anymore
    Poor Bolton fans looks like admin for them any players worth getting
    Pratly Zach Clough and David Wheater spring to mind

    Jesus Matt, so depends how bad he wants him gone. Still say he'll go soon as they'll come a point unless he's already reached it.

    Afternoon Mike, there's a reason Bolton are going down, they are not good enough. Does not help with their off field problems.

    Who'd take Pratley, Clough or Wheater?

    Evans is talking bollocks. Undermined the second Cellino walks in the changing room even if he says nothing (and we know that aint happening).


    Wj is in that stand.
    No way should kids under 18 be being put in danger.
    I can hear the defence already. "I was aiming to give the 30 year old a killer shag and missed".....

    Afternoon,

    So are you saying that :

    a) Evans is a liar
    b) Under 18's should be restricted to the family area only
    c) ER is a dangerous place?
