If He has sorted out His head etc then maybe, just maybe it will be a good signing, however for me the jury is still well and truly out.
I too was worried at first but i thought about it and if he did lose the attitude and the arrogance he just wouldn't be the same player, it's his attitude and arrogance that scares defenders. Welcome back Lee

Re: Evil Is Back !!!!

The jury's still out on this for me as well, has no-one thought that there must be good reason why Wrexham bought him out of his contract? Although I'm willing to be proved wrong, and I hope I am for the team's sake, I have a lot of reservations about McEvilly coming back, not least his fitness and his 'glass foot'. Let's not kill the fatted calf & roll out the red carpet just yet - if he proves himself, fine - if not I hope he's only on a pay as you play contract. The announcement of the fishy site doesn't say on what terms we've signed him.

There is no question that Lee has more than enough ability to be a quality League 2 striker. Unfortunately its his attitude which has let him down while he was at Wrexham.
Before the Wrexham squad left for their summer break Carey gave strict instructions to the squad to look after themselves, not gain any weight and to report back for pre season trainng in good shape.

When Evil arrived back at training he'd put on a stone in weight, was completely out of shape and then got injured in training on the first day back which ruled him out of the liverpool friendly.

This was the final straw after Carey and previously Denis Smith had told him to get himself in shape many times. He'd been given plenty of chances at Wrexham to get fit and show us what he can do. He never did.

Too many times he'd be out on the ale after a game and wearing boots that are a size too small never helped him much

Towards the end of last season when we really really needed him to put in performances for us he failed to deliver. Even in the pre match warm up he never looked interested.

If he's ever going to perform at this level he's going to need a drastic change of attitude.

Good luck Lee.
another wrexham fan here afraid phils right if it wasnt for evils attitude maybe he would lose weight and get fit its a shame cos hes got potential but he just doesnt want to use it. good luck evil mwah

It's the same story all over the place on Lee. But the fact that Coley wanted him back speaks volumes for me, Coley knows what he's getting, and has more chance of getting the best out of Lee than anyone.

Obviously there's a bit of work to do, mainly by Lee, but from Stanley's point of view it's not as though we're pinning all our hopes on him, we've got a fair strike force already.

As a sometimes mardy scouser myself, I'm hoping for the best, defenders hate playing against Evil. Certainly won't be dull.

Re: Evil Is Back !!!!

Undecided on this at the moment, I'll wait for the season to get underway and we'll see how he fairs. Change of subject here, can anyone please tell me were Shaun Whalley is?

Cheers

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!

Think you've all got very valid points, and Macca's post was spot on, but everybody recognises that the guy has talent. I remember at Oldham he had their defence running scared, and set up Craney for a goal, he does pass sometimes.

He's 2 years older, let's hope he's a bit wiser. Thought Lutel was a much improved player once he realised it was a team game, and he didn't twig till late in his career. Lee is still only 25, fingers crossed.
