Pressley blames the pitch (1 Viewer)

[CCFCWALL]

said the ref should have abandonned the game and because of the pitch we couldnt apply our usual passing game. Yeah thats it gaffer instead of facing facts blame the pitch, brilliant!!!

He's beginning to annoy me a bit now. Leave the excuses out, I hate them.

 

[stupot07]

He's said Our pitch is also poor and we can't play our normal passing game for the last couple of home games.....well change tactics and apply plan b!

 

[covkid]

Was it not the same for the Crawley players....... Wake up Pressley and be man enough to say we were shit from start to finish

 

[deanocity3]

hope he's gone by august

 

[CCFCDan87]

Change the tactics then to how the pitch plays. Basic stuff

 

[motherfunky]

He really is clueless. Every game, negative, boring tactics. Can't pick the right team, can't make right subs, can't motivate. Any better than Thorn???

Not looking forward to next season already. We must be the only team in the division with no pace in the team.

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

Yea he blamed the pitch after the Brentford game as well, the pitch isn't 'conducive' to the passing game. Even had the commentators copying him and using the word 'conducive' today.

In Pressleys eyes we were either outstanding or the pitch was to blame.

 

[Grendel]

He's had a handful if games. The squad as I said all along is poor. Thorn had a season and a half. When he gave interviews it was like dealing with the village idiot.

Unlike thorn this guy will walk into another job. He has to be given some time.

 

[The CableGuy]

I'm missing Robins and his 'tell it as it is' post-match comments already.

 

[Sky blue north east]

Blimey does he expect wembley turf on every league one ground!!! Yes far to much rain never mind fact that he clueless and a sisu puppet well mr pressley plz don't make any plans to sign any players as doubt your be manager start next season anyway!!!!

 

[sky_blue_up_north]

Should have played hoof ball today, no chance of passing the ball. No plan B, we were dire today, one of the worst perfomances of the season. To think i did a 500 mile round trip to watch that shit.

 

[sw88]

Tbf, he said he didnt want to use it as an excuse........but went on to use it as an excuse. Claimed it should have been called off after 50 minutes. Would he have thought the same had the scoreline been the other way round? I think not.

 

[sw88]

To think i did a 500 mile round trip to watch that shit.

And to think he wanted you to do it all over again for the replay fixture after it got called off.....

Feel for ya.... I bet very mile felt like 5 on the way back

What about his 3 year contract, if he goes will it be another pay off. Coverntry arnt in a position for payoffs.

Sisu have fooked up again

 

[gary_ccfcforever]

today was absolutely shocking, pitch was the same for both teams... neither had anything to play for yet Crawley wanted it more. Why?

give him some haggis and tell him do one

 

[Nick]

More excuses all of the time

 

[stupot07]

Why did he only make 1 sub? And why was that sub a player we don't even own and hasn't scored a league goal all season?

 

[Sky blue north east]

Also does he really think packing half the team with kids is gonna get us anywhere!!! Were going back to the at era and look where that got us im fed up with him he has to go before august!!!!

 

[skybluegod]

Guys before having a go at the guy you should see the full interview he also said that the players weren't good enough and although the pitch was poor its not an excuse. He said that he expects next two games to be better performance.

He's experimenting god sake fans ask for youngsters to be given a go as we have nothing to play for then have a go at him for doing so.

 

[Nick]

He doesn't seem to have a plan b ever The pitch is awful, so change the game / tactics.

 

[fernandopartridge]

Biggest disaster of an appointment since Coleman. Shame as it was such an important one. I would suspect we'd have more points now with Carsley in charge. Amazing how two big centre backs we've had as managers are so meak and it's reflected in their teams.

 

[skybluegod]

You have to give a new manager time new ideas take time to work its not magic. This is the problem with football now managers don't even get 10 games if they aren't winning every single one. Give him some god damn time. Who can score goals in our team apart from baker ATM? Nobody it's not just his fault it's the players.

You know this after what 7 games is it? Give him a chance

Fans complain when we hoof the ball so he can't win

Surely if the pitch wont allow a 5 yard pass then there isnt another option?

 

[Marty]

I don't want to write him off already, but I'm not impressed one bit. What ever happens with Pressely the next manager needs to be a forward. We always seem to play more attractive, attacking football with a forward in charge.

 

[ccfcway]

this is pre season for us

he cant be judged on this

he has next season, where if he doesnt come up to scratch we will let him go

or if he does well, he will be off anyway

lets not moan about him, he will be gone soon whatever happens

 

[stupot07]

If he wants to play slow build up, high posession football, then the squad needs a major overhaul

 

[logjoe]

Why did he only make 1 sub? And why was that sub a player we don't even own and hasn't scored a league goal all season?

Also he is here on loan

 

[Sky Blue Jay]

Can't judge him yet but i do have a gut feeling he's not the man to take us forward. Got that been here before feeling and the quotes after the games annoy me just admit we were rubbish

 

[ajsccfc]

Ryan Haynes had long enough. One game, one pool of vomit. Get rid.
