Career
Evans played for Newcastle Swifts before joining local league club Stoke in 1891. He had a decent debut season with Stoke scoring six goals during the 1891-1892 season. Evans became the first Stoke player to be sent-off, after receiving his marching orders in an away match at Everton on 12 November 1892.
He spent two more seasons at the Victoria Ground, but failed to hold down a place in the starting eleven.
He left in 1895 for Bury, and then moved on to Burslem Portuguese Vale, most likely in the autumn of 1896. However he lost his place at the start of the 1898-1899 season, after the club were promoted back to the Football League from the Midland League, and he was released upon its conclusion.
