Said it after MK 5-3-2 doesn't work. The likes of Otis, Stupot and the rest of you tarts need to wise the fuck up.

Same. I don't normally jump on the bandwagon when we play shit but it's gone. I'm sick of it.
Even if we pull it back today.

We don't pull games back. Other teams do, we just lose

I reckon he should just go crazy and go 4-3-3.

Give it a rest ffs.

You're the clown who said yesterday "we have atm is a squad good enough to get promoted"

Face the facts, this squad of loanees is not good enough.

I feel sorry for the 1080 that have travelled today , and it will be an insult if he says we were outstanding

Protect what we've got and throw another defender on.

You obviously don't understand how bad Crewe are. A team including 6 first teamers could only beat Witton Albion 2-1 in midweek, that's how bad.

Oh and for the record: http://m.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/28750210

The system doesn't work if you don't have the correct players to play it. I don't like the system, yet it isn't doing Bristol City any harm playing 3 at the back is it?

Totally agree, I'm not usually one to slag them. But enough is enough , when the only person who can't see the formation is bollocks, is the manager.

Yeah we should be beating Crewe, it is ELVIS and system that is preventing us. Even the Crewe fans said it should be a walkover

I don't think we're negative enough, we need to be more negative and try for more 0-0 draws

It could work but it doesn't work the way we play it.

We basically have 8 players that all play in our own defensive half and 2 strikers that play in the opponents half.

I hope we come back to win BUT the inflexibility the manager is showing in the 5-3-2 is terrible.

Its almost like he cant play anything else as it would be a sign of weakness.

McQuoid is poor in many aspects of his game, 1st touch and finishing being the most glaringly obvious. We are playing Pugh at LWB and he cant attack for toffee.

SP really needs to put coudabaily and Haynes on the wings 2nd half and take off Finch and go 4-4-2.

As it stands we're one point outside the bottom 4, disgraceful from everyone involved.

Neither the players or management seem to understand the formation.

It's since Reda's red card. All down hill from that point

(Not saying that's what caused it, just saying that's the point in where it all changed)

Or perhaps you need to wise the fuck up and realise that Jackson isn't the best striker to have ever played for Coventry and that this squad is not better than last seasons....

And for the record I said that the formation was working at home as the results (if not performances) show, but he needs to come up with another plan when we're awayx

O'Brien can't pass to save his life and when he doesn't fancy that he shoots over from 35 yards. Defence is simply brittle and with 1 less man in a defensively hopeless midfield we are lucky only to have let in 2.

Got to change it at half time.

This is what I find most frustrating, he seems to think these kind of performances are not just acceptable but something to be proud of.

I wonder what's said in the changing room tho. Surely he doesn't tell them they've been excellent?

Why do some people still insist that Pressley has done a good job here? Only time we've played well under him is when he has Wilson and Clarke scoring for fun. We were awful under him when he took over from Robins and we were awful under him from January onwards last season. From what I've seen in recent home games the players don't even look like they want to play for him.
