Look I'm not saying sack SP at all I think he is good. But what do we do to stop the awful pile of crap I paid £22 for today

Formation is not working, no natural wing-backs

£22 for league one football is a joke.

The manager must take ownership of the problem and react accordingly.

If he doesn't then you sack him.

I'm guessing that was tongue in cheek given the rant you had about people saying "Presley out" last week.

I think he will address the issues so yes. Of course if he doesn't then by Christmas you ask the question.

I can't pretend I am not concerned as today was shocking and I think he must see that.

why ?, he is right ?. Lost 3 in a row. If we lose 2, 3, 4 more, then what.

Its how football works. he has changed the formation this season. The players last season would have struggled with this.

To not have a shot on target at home, when you are a team challenging for promotion isnt right at all

He'll be an escape goat if he does get the push. We'd no doubt find someone to take his place but how is this club going to attract anyone better with what SISU have transformed it into?

You're right. It's not time yet but he needs to see the issues and change things else he needs to go. Squad is good enough at this level despite what people say. We are better than what we are showing.

Clearly we're not challenging for promotion.

We can see what's wrong. We can see how it should be changed to see if it makes it better. We can see that we can't carry on like this.
If Pressley can't then he's got trouble coming his way and rightly so.

It's hard to take positives from today, even the burger I had at half time was rubbish!

Not by me it wasn't. Anyone was going to be better than Thorn, I can't believe you of all people wouldn't agree with that.

I don't think anyone should be calling for the Gaffer's head, but Pressley must find a solution to the issues at hand.. There was nothing positive to take from today at all and in my opinion we have brought in decent players this summer we must start getting the best out of them..

I've always backed Presley to the hilt, but I would suggest his win ratio is extremely poor, today was shocking , can't wait for the player ratings post, doubt anyone will get above 5

Click to expand...

Lets get this straight, we are not challenging for promotion. We are 3 points from the relegation zone. One more defeat or a couple of draws and we will be teetering near the bottom. We have allowed all of our top-scorers to leave (Baker, Moussa, Clarke, Wilson). The team is too weak to cope with losing our best defender and our best striker (a loanee). Maybe when we are back at full-strength, things will improve but god help us in January after the loanees have left.

So last week people were concerned. You told them they were wrong. At least you agree with them now.

I am concerned that was awful, the first thing Pressley should be doing on Monday morning is banging on Waggot's door asking where the 60p in the £1 on the pitch is and get replacing some of those players with players on loan with a view to signing them in Jan, we need new players right through the middle of the team starting with a goalie who can make saves and catch the ball.

It was Waggott who said it . Having said that, is there ANYONE who thinks we can do anything at all when we dont have a shot on target during a home game ?

Pretty sure a lot of City fans were talking promotion on here after we beat Gillingham.

Even automatic promotion from some.

That's the trouble, some people get too carried away and for the same reason we are not going to be promoted on 3 wins back to back, we are not going to be relegated on 3 back to back defeats either and this isn't the worst City team ever, nor is it the worst performance ever from a City team either.

It was really, really bad today for sure, but people do overract. I'm not sure the system itself is wrong, it's the fact that we haven't got the right players perhaps to make the system work.

The system is seemingly wrong for these players. There is no point playing with wing backs if they don't get forwards at all. Nullifies the whole point.

We either need to make sure we have the right personel for this system or we ditch the system.

Midfield is a worry for me. We look rather lightweight at times.

Part of the problem must that Pressley got in players to play a certain system and then watched the World cup and like many others decided 532 was the way to play but couldn't change the players. I am glad that many of the players are on loan or year long deals as I don't think I could watch them season after season but god knows what we will end up with next year.
