I never liked Evans. Simpering little toady. I've never heard the words 'boot room' uttered so many times as he did. Well, him and Ronnie Moran, but obviously that goon was an utter waste of cells...
Even when they gave Evans the ultimate slap in the chops with that demeaning 'joint manager' thing, all he did was sit simperingly on the touchline with a rictus grin plastered on his face as if he was 'really happy' with the arrangement. I've known jellyfish with more backbone than him.
Evans was on 5 live the other day, a more graceless, insulting and tonedeaf interview I have never heard.
Lots of barely disguised belittling of his time at Liverpool, when asked what it was that houllier did to be credited as modernising the club he went on a rant about how the club decided to throw money around (with the implications they didn't give Evans a pot to piss in) and it was just money, none of the modern thinking or tactical changes coming from Europe at that time.
Ended by saying he walked away because no-one could be expected to have a co-manager thrust upon them (but obviously not straight-away eh Roy? So principled) and that he and houllier were 'not friends'.
I don't know Evans but came across really poorly and made me wonder why on earth he agreed to the interview if he is still that bitter that he can't even mask it on the day of houllier's death.
