Pilgrims play down Evans exit talk

Boston United chairman Jim Rodwell has played down suggestions that League Two rivals Darlington have approached him for manager Steve Evans.
The speculation surfaced at the weekend when the Quakers suspended their manager Dave Hodgson following Friday evening's 2-2 draw with Grimsby Town.
And with former Pilgrims chairman Jon Sotnick now chief executive at the North-East outfit, it was claimed they would be looking to take Evans away from York Street.
However Rodwell has denied the reports, while Evans, who had come under pressure recently, says he is not going anywhere.
He told BBC Radio Lincolnshire: "I told the fans a few weeks ago that I wasn't going to Darlington and nothing has changed since that time."
