The Steve Evans era at Elland Road didn’t exactly get off to a tremendous start

Within his first five minutes in the Elland Road dugout, Steve Evans saw his Leeds side fall 2-0 down to Blackburn.

Evans became the sixth manager to be appointed by Massimo Cellino since April 2014 when he took over from Uwe Rosler last week and it took all of 18 seconds for Blackburn’s Craig Conway to heap some early pressure on the former Rotherham boss with the opener.

Not the best start to a first home game but surely things could only get better.

Nope!

And after Jordan Rhodes doubled Leeds’ home woes in the fifth minute, fans began voicing their displeasure in the terraces and online.
