Was it his choice, or was he told to cut wages?

Let's all sing together, play up Stingers. We will play with forwards, props and 2 wingers Bath, Saints or Leicester, Worcester or anyone, We'll grab each other and then fist you right up your bum.

In his defence, losing Callum Wilson has really, really hit us hard. I also like the way he has promoted youth and how they are getting their chances. He does seem very stubborn though and also seems most reluctant to change a system that clearly isn't working at the moment. He does also...

I have always backed the bloke, but his intransigence in not changing the system, which clearly isn't working at the moment, is really grinding me down. He's not doing himself any favours, and with this system, with these players, we are just not creating enough. System only seems to work to...

Fair enough, but should we really be 2 nil against the worst side in the league before we begin to turn up? Not good enough to just say we improved in the second half. Damage was already done by then.

They are, but I'm not sure what formation they play. Possibly 10-3-2.

Sounds a beaten man doesn't he. Mind you, we just lost 2-1 so he is a beaten man.

Midfield - More strength and pace and ball winning, less silky skills and 5 yard passes.

Think you will find I have never been in favour of this system. The argument at the time was that we had just gone on a 7 match unbeaten run and should we suddenly change it. I've never been a fan of this system unless you have the right players to deploy in it. You just kept banging on and...

Could well be right, well, about the players at least anyway.

John Inman? :o

He just got substituted didn't he!

Don't know. Just saying wing back system can work, but you must have the right players to play that system. Always been unsure as to whether we have thos players. Results and performances of late point to that being very doubtful I would reckon.

On a side note, SSN saying Peterborough's wing back system is ripping apart the Crawley defence. All about having the right players to play that formation though isn't it.

SSN saying we are pushing Crewe back and are having a lot of possession, but aren't creating much.

Sounds a wise move. Much more attacking intention.

With Crewe's morale at a low ebb due to their lowly position and poor form, we really need to take advantage of this. Crewe's first half confidence must now be shattered.

Has the formation changed? Have we pushed up further up the pitch? What is different this half I wonder. More urgency?

I was wrong that I said it was going to be tough? How so? Have you seen the score? How am I wrong? Lol :claping hands:

I know, I agree. Just couldn't understand all the predictions of any easy win when we play very negatively and have such a poor away record, that's all. Think we could have won today had we set out our stall correctly, but at times Pressley sets our teams to play in a negative formation...
