Nick Clegg disagrees with Evans training with club ‘this week’
Liberal Democrat leader feels they should have waited longer
Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg confused himself and the world yesterday when he said that Ched Evans should not have been allowed to return to training with Sheffield United this week but can return after spending time abroad.
