Did anyone ask why he is playing Moussa out of position? Why his team doesn't play with any proper wide players or width? What Mcsheffrey did to get dropped from the match day squad entirely?

Moussa isn't really being played out of position, he's a winger/CM, and I personally don't think he's been great in CM since about MK Dons away.

@CJ_covblaze: Jim (did the PA at Highfield Road!): Have you identified the area needed to improve?
(Wonder if his voice is that deep in real life! Then again, its probably how hes been identified
It is that deep. Maybe even deeper in real life. I felt as I was slipping into Alan's Deep Bath for a minute .

Me and NLHWC went. I must say SP was really impressive and I really do think he can make a success of Coventry City. Nice of him to sign a birthday card for my CCFC mad son who's 7 tomorrow.
Good night.
Good night.

What did McSheffery do to get dropped? He did nothing! Thats why he got dropped!
I agree with him getting dropped from the first 11, I just thought with his contract running out Pressley would have wanted to get another look at him during him games even if it is only coming on as a sub.

Well MK Dons was probably his best performance in a CCFC shirt so it is hard to better that. Moussa sees himself as a better player through the middle

He's wasted on the wing

There was a long part about our over-reliance on a few players for goals and how "certain areas of the pitch in the final third" need to add goals and pace to the side. He had spoken how the way Baker likes to "come inside and play between the lines" compliments Christie's pace & desire to get forward. Essentially, his avoidance of the left-sided players kinda spoke volumes. He also said we needed a No.10 with pace who could get goals. He was very adamant that he wouldn't be denigrating specific players at a fan's forum (EG on Wood, when asked if he was keen to get rid of him!).

Agreed, he was very charismatic and articulate. Very impressed by both his and McFarlane's (wait for it...) football philosophy. One thing that he returned to several times was how important the fans were in cheering Haynes from the rafters-said that without that support the lad might not have gone on past the first 10 minutes. So let's remember that and try and get behind the lads whenever possible, even if they aren't playing great, rather than boo and heckle them! We'll be seeing a lot more young blood in the side so it's important that we back them to the hilt.
And as my first contact with the SBT I have to say that there was no arrogance or sense of a clique-just a bunch of passionate City fans who want the best for their club. They put on a very good night tonight.

We recorded the event so hopefully we can get it uploaded onto the trust website in the next day or two.
Highlight of the evening for me is when SP was asked if the SISU out chants affected him or the team.
He replied he'll only start to worry when we sing "Pressley out!"
Came across as a very smart passionate guy. Well impressed with him.

Maybe one that he sought was a £50k/wk increase if he got us 9pts from his next 4 games? Or that he could watch home games naked from the directors box? Or maybe his assurances sought were perfectly reasonable? One day we may find out...but don't hold your breath!
