themanchestereveningnews--2020-09-12--Every word Bolton boss Ian Evatt said after the Forest Green Rovers defeat

Bolton Wanderers kicked off their League Two campaign with defeat at home to Forest Green Rovers .
Wanderers lost 1-0 thanks to a second half strike from Carl Winchester which proved enough to secure all three points for the Green Devils .
After the game , Wanderers boss Ian Evatt held a post match press conference and this is everything he had to say .
Is that the most disappointing defeat out of the three games played so far this season ?
`` It feels like groundhog day a little bit , to me .
I think first half , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the game really well , we were on top .
We miss a glaring chance and opportunity with Eoin Doyle which we needed to score first , and when we didn ’ t score first , we got in at half-time and we spoke about a few things .
`` One was not conceding free kicks in our own final third because I thought we conceded too many in the first half and we speak about this all the time , 56 % of goals in League Two come from set pieces , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the opportunity to opponents to put the ball in your box .
`` We make a clumsy foul straight after half-time , a free-kick in the box , comes out and the way things are going at the moment , 30 yards out , wherever he was , he shoots between bodies , hits someone ’ s heels and goes in the back of the net .
`` Goals change games , it ’ s a cliche .
It happens and then it takes us 15 to 20 minutes again to get that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and then we huff and puff at the end .
Ali ( Crawford ) made a great opportunity , a good shot , and a good save , and then Liam ( Gordon ) almost got one at the back stick , but other than that we huffed and puffed .
We didn ’ t do enough second half , after the goal , I think the goal affected us and affected our confidence .
`` We ’ ve got a lot of hard work to do .
We ’ re not there @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to be , but we all have to go home and self analyse and think are we doing enough ?
What can we do more ?
What can we do better ?
`` That ’ s part of football and if we do that , I think we can all be honest with ourselves that we need to give more , do more , work even harder and get it right , because I don ’ t think we ’ re far away , that ’ s the thing , we ’ re @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not getting outplayed .
I don ’ t think Billy ’ s ( Crellin ) had a save to make really .
`` Yes , we ’ ve defended the box well at times and made a few blocks , but that ’ s the game .
Other than that , I don ’ t think Billy ’ s had a save to make .
Sarc has a chance first half , Doyler has a great opportunity first half , he makes a great save from Ali Crawford , their keeper ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ ve again conceded a really poor goal .
How surprised have you been by the start to the season ?
You 'd have expected more ?
“ I always expect more , but that ’ s just me as a character and a person .
I want to win .
I always have to be a realist and realise that for too long now , this football club has been used to losing football matches .
`` It ’ s a culture that needs to change and also , we ’ ve @ @ @ @ @ @ @ m not using that as an excuse because it ’ s nonsense and I hate making excuses , but it ’ s common sense to know it ’ s not going to be fluid Brazil in the first week. ''
We have to be patient .
We have to believe in the process and things will change , because we ’ ve got some very good players and the way we do things and the way we work is very good .
`` Sooner rather than later it ’ s going to turn @ @ @ @ @ @ @ re not far away .
We just need to knuckle down on the finer details . ''
Eoin Doyle just needs his first goal and then a lot more will come ?
“ I have no doubts in my mind that Eoin will score 20 plus this season .
No doubts .
I think the team need to see him scoring .
`` He needs it for himself but I think everybody else needs Eoin to score just to give everybody a lift , and that could be anyhow .
`` If it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I don ’ t really care .
I would just like him to score , for him , but also I ’ d like us to score first because I think then , you might see us express ourselves a little bit more . ''
You mentioned last week you wanted to see him more in the box and the danger zone - did you get that a little bit more today from him ?
“ He had a great opportunity first half .
Second half , the ball was falling and dropping @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and we weren ’ t quite getting the rub of the green , but final third entries , if you keep entering the final third , the law of averages saw you ’ re going to score sooner rather than later , and we need to work hard on that and do better when we get into the final third .
`` Other than probably the Wigan game away where we changed it a lot , this is the game where I think I ’ ve learned the most and I think I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ We ’ ll know next Saturday whether I ’ m right or not because this week , we ’ re going to have to work really hard , but I think in my own mind , I can see clearly where it ’ s wrong and I know how to fix it and that ’ s football .

"We’ve got a lot of hard work to do. We’re not there, nowhere near where I want us to be, but we all have to go home and self analyse and think are we doing enough? What can we do more? What can we do better?
"That’s part of football and if we do that, I think we can all be honest with ourselves that we need to give more, do more, work even harder and get it right, because I don’t think we’re far away, that’s the thing, we’re not far away. We’re not getting outplayed. I don’t think Billy’s (Crellin) had a save to make really.
"Yes, we’ve defended the box well at times and made a few blocks, but that’s the game. Other than that, I don’t think Billy’s had a save to make. Sarc has a chance first half, Doyler has a great opportunity first half, he makes a great save from Ali Crawford, their keeper’s worked harder than ours, but we’ve again conceded a really poor goal.
How surprised have you been by the start to the season? You'd have expected more?
“I always expect more, but that’s just me as a character and a person. I want to win. I always have to be a realist and realise that for too long now, this football club has been used to losing football matches.
"It’s a culture that needs to change and also, we’ve got 17 new players and I’m not using that as an excuse because it’s nonsense and I hate making excuses, but it’s common sense to know it’s not going to be fluid Brazil in the first week.
" We have to be patient. We have to believe in the process and things will change, because we’ve got some very good players and the way we do things and the way we work is very good.
"Sooner rather than later it’s going to turn and as I said, we’re not far away. We just need to knuckle down on the finer details."
Eoin Doyle just needs his first goal and then a lot more will come?
“I have no doubts in my mind that Eoin will score 20 plus this season. No doubts. I think the team need to see him scoring.
"He needs it for himself but I think everybody else needs Eoin to score just to give everybody a lift, and that could be anyhow.
"If it hits his backside and goes in, I don’t really care. I would just like him to score, for him, but also I’d like us to score first because I think then, you might see us express ourselves a little bit more."
My Bolton Wanderers on social media My Bolton Wanderers provides news about the Whites from the Manchester Evening News. We have set up social media accounts on Facebook and Twitter which you can follow and where the latest articles will be posted to.
You mentioned last week you wanted to see him more in the box and the danger zone - did you get that a little bit more today from him?
“He had a great opportunity first half. Second half, the ball was falling and dropping around but there was blocks from them and we weren’t quite getting the rub of the green, but final third entries, if you keep entering the final third, the law of averages saw you’re going to score sooner rather than later, and we need to work hard on that and do better when we get into the final third.
"Other than probably the Wigan game away where we changed it a lot, this is the game where I think I’ve learned the most and I think I can see what is wrong.
"We’ll know next Saturday whether I’m right or not because this week, we’re going to have to work really hard, but I think in my own mind, I can see clearly where it’s wrong and I know how to fix it and that’s football.”

themanchestereveningnews--2020-09-12--Kerry Daynes, Faking It: Tears of a Crime

She has spent more than 20 years working alongside some of the world ’ s most deadliest criminals .
But Kerry Daynes says she still occasionally gets shocked by the actions of some people against their fellow human beings .
The forensic psychologist , from Bramhall , has worked with offenders in prisons , secure hospitals , courts and police stations , and also out in the community .
She ’ s crossed paths with rapists , murderers and serial killers , and can be seen showcasing her skills on Quest Red ’ s Faking It : Tears of a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Lansley and Dawn Archer .
But despite the parade of dangerous criminals she encounters in her day job , Kerry says that personally being on the receiving end of a crime is what still keeps her awake at night .
Kerry , 46 , was chillingly stalked by someone she did not know- after six years he was finally arrested and ended up in court , but the outcome was not what she expected .
“ I was stalked for many years and it was a real nerve shredding experience , ” Kerry @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I have a very clear boundary for work and home and it got to the stage where I felt very unsafe at home and not at work - which is ironic given that I work with convicted serial killers.
” Kerry ’ s ordeal began in 2011 when a fan set up a website in her name , escalating to the point where he was suspected of murdering her cat , and being the author of the chilling message ‘ Jill Dando ’ on the fence outside her home .
The message was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ BBC newsreader Jill , who was shot dead outside her home in Fulham , London , in April 1999 .
“ I am sick of hearing about dead women , ” said Kerry .
“ In my case , my stalker got arrested and was given a harassment warning , which is basically a slap on the wrist .
But it took six years to get to this point .
“ At that time it was all happening someone wrote ‘ Jill Dando ’ on my gate and then nearby I found my @ @ @ @ @ @ @ He was arrested at that point .
“ Because of all this , the harassment warning felt inadequate to me.
” Bizarrely , Kerry says her stalker attempted to take her to court himself for non-payment of a bill of £26,000 for the work on the website - work which she never commissioned .
Those court proceedings were thrown out , and instead Kerry took him to court - at her own expense - and got a shock when she faced him in the courtroom .
She said : “ It cost a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a day out with me , in the same room as me , which is what he wanted .
“ I didn ’ t actually know what he looked like but I later found out that when I was sitting in the court canteen he pretty much sat next to me on the next table directly behind me .
“ I didn ’ t realise this until I saw his face in the courtroom.
” Since her experience , Kerry - a patron of the National Centre for Domestic Violence and Talking2Minds - @ @ @ @ @ @ @ crimes that disproportionately harm women and children .
She also campaigns to improve responses to both victims and perpetrators , particularly in cases of stalking .
“ Women that have been in a relationship with men who become obsessed with them - there are escalating behaviours and things that can happen leading up to that point , '' she said .
“ I do think that there should be an improved police response to stalking , even if there has not been any physical behaviour or violence .
“ It ’ s nice @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Faking It .
They ’ re not all killers of course , but they can still have a massive impact on the victims.
” Faking It : Tears of a Crime sees the three experts examine footage of famous criminals who shed crocodile tears on camera - either on national television or in their police interviews - and pinpoint the moments where they give away their guilt .
The new series again draws on the expertise of body language expert Cliff , linguistics professor Dawn and criminal psychologist Kerry , aiming to tell @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of Britain ’ s most infamous criminal cases .
This time it features Grenfell Tower conman Anh Nhu Nuguyen , White House Farm murderer Jeremy Bamber , Met Police fraudster Carl Beech , and killer taxi driver Christopher Halliwell .
Their deceit is captured in Police CCTV footage during interrogations and TV interviews analysed by our experts , honing in on the micro-gestures and brief moments where the truth slips out , ultimately leading to their downfall .
“ People think that because of the way we see forensic psychologists on TV , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ powers , ” laughed Kerry .
“ In real life , I am brought in by police as a consultant , I might be helping to link a series of crimes , or how the mental state and personality of someone will drive their behaviour .

I ’ m not getting into the mind of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ myself into their shoes.
” Kerry says that she has been interested in crime from an early age .
“ Back in the early 90s , Cracker was a popular TV show filmed up north and everyone assumed I took my path because of that , ” she remembered .

"The manager is really onto the players about that, he's keen to brief that in training as someone who has the experience he has.
