The players are/were very keen for Revs to get the job, and one of them told me in Jersey that Revs basically ran things anyway so they don't anticipate much change. If things go badly this could change and things could quickly unravel of course, but as it stands there should be no issue from a commitment perspective.

The concerns for me are his in-game management and whether he can or will adapt tactically. That was his biggest failing last time round, and I have seen some signs of concern in pre-season that this will remain the case. As I recall we resolutely stuck with the diamond midfield last time around, and appear to be doing so again this time, as well as playing four at the back (which unless trying it in the BCD games and we will go with a back 3/5 to spring a surprise on Shrewsbury, we have gone with a back four in every PSF). I personally think both of those are not going to get the most out of our players and will hold us back or hamper us, and won't help us in creating chances or scoring goals, which I fear may be a big issue for us this season.

In his favour already is that it seemed many fans thought lots of players would leave and we would struggle to bring in top quality players now Evans has gone and Revs is in charge, and we have already very much seen this is not the case with the number of players who have signed new contracts (granted this could as much be a case of then simply wanting to be paid more) and the quality of those who have joined us.

But I will be backing him as long as possible and have never wanted a manager to succeed more than I do him. Desperate for him to work wonders with us.
