Better than what they’ve performed against, apparently.

They've played an extra game. This seasons surprise package,will be difficult to beat.

Steve Evans is a good manager.
Probably doesn't get the big jobs because he comes across old school and calls a spade a c*nt.

Not surprised they are top. We should have beaten them though based on how we played. It's hard to say if they'll last the season but I can see them being in the top 6 mix.

For some reason, Alan Knight seems to hate him. Remember an express fm commentary where he was going on about him. I don't think we were playing against his team then either!

If I was a professional sportsman I would not be able to take Evans seriously, given that he's built like a Christmas pudding.

He's good at one particular aspect of management which is using a woefully unentertaining style football to take teams a bit higher up the league than they have any natural right to be. His teams are almost exclusively diabolical to watch. Fake injuries to take the sting put of the game when the opponent builds up a head of steam etc.

I seem to remember that this time last season cambridge were in the top six but ended up scraping to safety. Having said that stevenage look a decent mid table side having mad some good signings
12-09-2023, 08:01 PM
Exactly that. Great start but you'd expect them to fade out to mid-table

His shopping for players looks pretty decent, their first team will be competitive, who knows about the squad beneath of course.
In some ways I'd like to see someone as non PC as him, succeed against the odds. As regards cheating and time wasting, all the teams including ours do it. hopefully the focus on automatic yellows will continue and kill it off once and for all.
