Re: Evil Is Back !!!!
McEvilly started really well at Rochdale before fading into unfit obscurity and being loaned out to non-league Stanley.
Eventually non league Stanley saw the best out of McEvilly who subsequently moved to higher league Wrexham at the beginnning of the season which saw Stanley move out of non-league.
After an initial good period which saw him become a fans favourite for the same sort of reasons he was here (bullying and battering defenders) he got injured and then injured again and injured again. Somewhere in the middle of that he had earned himself a move to higher league (and favourites for the title at the beginning of the season) Bradford which fell through due to injury.
An unfit Evil came back and despite the cat calls of the crowd and despite the excess weight carried still scored the goals that effectively saved Wrexham from non-league obscurity.
The guy has bags of talent fit or unfit, it can be argued that we have seen the best of him over the last five years or so. If Evil gets bombed out again due to fitness or attitude he will struggle to find anybody willing to chance on him at this level of play or pay.
Its up to Lee now whether he wants to carry on being a nearly man, getting a game and a goal here and there and still visiting Burger King, or whether he wants to be the man who scored 25 goals in one season in the Conference and earned himself a move up the leagues. Fit and healthy Lee will play more than he sits out and will score 20 goals next year. Unfit he will score 5 or 6 and be playing for Droylsden at best by the next transfer window.
Lee, please prove the doubters wrong and fire us to the play-offs. And score a hat-trick at Wrexham - they are expecting it!
