Board if this is to be, I urge you to think as it is a completely uninspiring appointment. He has done nothing to deserve the managers job at our beloved football club. |  | | |  |

How do you know he doesn’t deserve the role if it is true?
Are you an expert in appointing football managers?
Give it a rest.
If he is to be appointed then it is down to merit, not conspiracy.
Yet again people on here writing others off before so much as a ball has been kicked or even a contract signed! |  | | |

Would be typical of this lot to try and pinch another of our succesful managers. Don't know what contract he is on but new owners need to get him tied down. Training base being on 'Dales doorstep probably a factor in this speculation
The only one I can think of is Vic Halom, some 35 years ago. It's not exactly a regular occurrence. |  |

I thought that as well. A strange remark. Jordan Williams as a player and Barry Diamond perhaps, but the way it's worded, you'd think we were 4 or 5 times 'manager-snatchers' |  |

Because he manages Barrow you pillock and we are a division three side in the football league. Why get rid of Keith Hill to bring in an amateur. Will be on par with Eyre if we end up with this guy. |  | | |

This is the boards masterplan? A manager who hasn’t even done a full season in management yet from non-league.
COMICAL. |  |

While I don't agree he'd be on a par with Eyre, we simply don't know, I agree it would be a uninspiring appointment on paper.
If the likes of Flynn and Hurst have been approached and turned us down (that would have to have happened very quickly) then I don't suspect we have much choice than to be looking at up and coming managers. Evatt falls into that category and he looks to have done a good job at Barrow, who are probably the National League equivalent of Dale in League One as far as budgets go.
We HAD to sack Hilly though. We HAD to. Apparently. As some have said, be careful what you wish for. Idiots.
As much as I'm smarting over us sacking Hilly, whoever comes in has to be given backing and support. I'd just rather it was somebody we as fans could get excitied about. |  | | |

IF it’s true, he maybe impressed with his training sessions, like Hill did when he first got the gig with no experience? | |

It shouldn't be his back they get on if it comes to it......... someone like Evatt would be a fool to turn it down. The flak if it goes wrong should be directed elsewhere......... in any case, best to wait and see.. | |

Holt has appeared on the betting recently at 20/1 which could purely be because his name has appeared here once or twice.
I have heard from a source very close to the club that we have interviewed Dave Sutton for the role, he is very willing to return and help our youngsters bloom, and believes his grass roots background will help the club blossom.
I also heard that Tim flowers will be brought in as assistant, with Kevin rose as goalkeeping coach.
Sutton has his roots in Rochdale and believes from acorns mighty oaks grow, and yew would be chestnuts not to have a bet on him!!! |  |

I’m not advocating his appointment, just trying to see how it might have come about. If true! | |

If we’re going down the untested route with someone with barely any football league management experience we may as well go for one of our own, not someone managing at barrow. | |

I’m guessing/hoping this is false. He’s been out of the management game for nearly 25 years | |

Taking Chesterfield down (okay, not really his fault) and 12th in the Conference with Barrow. Can't we do any better?
Does he live in Rochdale, given where Barrow train?
If Evatt does take over, he'd of course have my full backing. But I'd be very underwhelmed.
Edit: Barrow fans seem to love him, and he's doing for them what Hill has for us. To be fair, it does sound like we could do a lot worse than appoint Evatt. Although I'd still prefer Flowers. [Post edited 5 Mar 2019 19:41]

My only hope at this stage is that the BoD does plenty of due diligence on whoever they decide to appoint and don't just check his wiki page.
On the basis that the teams with the best defences are the ones that win things, it would be great if the next guy knows a left back and a couple of centre halves that would come to Rochdale without having to go back to his previous club and sign his mates. |  | | |

Oh right. Who did the most successful manager in our history manage before us you pillock?
If he goes through an application & interview process and is found to be successful then he is deserving of the role... Pillock. | | | |
