Joey Barton has revealed Antony Evans' agent was being "wined and dined" by Wael Al-Qadi at the Mem on Tuesday while Bristol Rovers' talisman conjured another moment of magic to defeat Barrow.
The Gas were struggling to break down the defences of the 10-man Bluebirds after Niall Canavan's first-half red card for denying a goalscoring opportunity, but Evans hammered down the door with a stunning strike from long range inside the final 10 minutes.
The former Everton and SC Paderborn playmaker has been a revelation at Rovers, registering nine goals and nine assists in 29 appearances in all competitions since signing as a free agent on deadline day in August. Not only are the raw numbers impressive, but the panache he has shown to boot has made him a star in BS7.
