I think you're right on this and that anything he said would have been twisted.
But I'm not quite sure why he's said anything at all to be honest. He's still going through an appeal process (well...not an appeal but the investigation into the case) so why not just keep your head down?
Again it's his own fault because he has his stupid website up stating how innocent he is, which further antagonises people, which has then forced him into this statement which was never going to be received well by anyone.
Almost everything that has been coming to Evans since his release is his own doing and the only thing he can have any sympathy on is the people actually issuing threats to him or to the clubs who have been looking to sign him.
But without that website, he'd have no chance as he'd be at the mercy of the media and the mouth-frothers.
These are the same people who have deplored him for his silence and, then, when he makes a statement to try and prove that he's not being silent through arrogance, the mouth-frothers find some problem with that, and then attack anyone for supporting his statement.
The Hillsborough/Taylor thing is just stupid - it's like "how dare you used our word in relation to him" rather than him actually saying anything bad, imo.
