Posh and Evans originally claimed McCann’s sacking and Evans’ arrival were unconnected. Evans insisted he quit Mansfield to take up a post abroad, but Posh then pounced when hearing of his availability.

Posh have won both matches under the management of Evans to move into the League One play-off places.
