The Problem With Ched Evans...

The problem with Ched Evans is this. He isn’t very good at football. He’s alright. Solid squad player. Guilty of rape. Free to seek out employment. One footed. Not a bad leap on him. Has a terrible goal scoring record and has never been good in front of the camera.

If Ched Evans was the kind of player who’d guarantee success then he would have got a job already. Football clubs (businesses) take decisions based on risk and reward and if he could return 30 goals a season or stop 30 going in therefore delivering promotion and all the extra sponsorship that brings then signing him would be a no brainer. But Ched Evans is not that good a football player. He’s no Suarez. He’s Ched Evans. Below par.

Does Ched Evans really want a job that bad? If the answer is yes then he needs to find a business where that risk reward is no longer a risk. Because buying him will bring sponsorship flight like Roubles leaving Moscow. I’d suggest he starts sending his CV to teams in the conference. These clubs may consider Evans a valuable purchase. One who offers more good than bad and in a league where his average leaping ability, uncultured left foot and below par decision making could still make the difference and win promotion.

Or maybe (as he insists he is innocent) he should concentrate on clearing his name and forget about football because if he ever wants to play for glamour clubs like Oldham or Sheffield Utd again he’ll need to issue an apology, no matter what. Even Suarez said sorry and he’s fucking amazing at kicking a ball.


So Ched it's easy…Say sorry and you’ll get a job or refuse to and see how far the rabbit hole you’ll drop, maybe as far as Stains Town FC.
