Future Of G. Evans
It was inevitable that after Christchurch City’s professional soccer coach, Gwyn Evans, broke his nose for the second time in a year, there would be rumours that he was retiring from the game. Evans, who was forced to be a spectator at the Basin Reserve last Saturday when Canterbury played Wellington, has denied them—but with one reservation.
“I will play again, although possibly not this season,” he said. “I’ve been told it is six weeks before I would be fit to play and that would be almost at the end of the season. But if breaking my nose is to become a habit, I shall think twice about giving up the game."
