Not even sure I'd be going home with a smile on my face if we'd have scored that pen to take the points!

What a poor game overall.

pretty sure you are on a wind up, but i will respond.

The bottom team in the league had 11 shots. CCFC (who by the manager and Chairmans admission, are mounting a promotion push this year) had 10 shots.

Anyone know why Jackson was taking corner and Willis taking free kicks today?
Click to expand...

Willis scored a free kick in training. Apparently it was so good it made Instagram! However had no bearing in what he was capable of in a competitive game but we still let him go with it......

Other than Preston and MK we have players capable of getting points in the other games but not the manager, hopefully Pressley is sacked before the next game.

They don't have a nominated taker and don't practice it.

And what about Jackson on the corners, bizarre from Pressley. The man is hopeless

Yea I've said before other than the top 4 I don't rate the rest of this division. We have the players capable of getting points from anyone outside the top 4.

That was my first game since Yeovil at home and the best word to describe it would be turgid. Would have been harsh on Yeovil if we'd won, but tbh they are as shit as us and they look like a bottom of the table team. From our point of view too many players look disinterested.

Maybe he needs it explaining that promotion is going up a division and it is relegation that is going down a division

Many good aspects
Penalty crucial, gave them a lift and momentum
Both teams not brimming with confidence
Clean sheet gives us foundation to build from
Mentality, attitude, application brilliant, proud for that
Frustrated as we should have won, merited the win
Seen a desire to win
Should have won
Jones gave the back 4 real confidence, good decision making
Reda Johnson a huge influence for us
Jack Finch outstanding
Try and do more business in the next 10 days

So no worries according to Pressley, clueless.

The worrying thing is that there is no-one completely adrift. Any team below us is capable of stringing together a few wins to climb above us. The question is are we capable of doing that? It's a good thing that we prevented Yeovil from getting three points.

Not Pressley's fault he missed, Pressley's fault he took it.
Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't that one penalty in six that we have scored. How long before we have a penalty specialist? How many more must we miss before Pressley acts?
Pretty stupid of Madine to place it in the same spot as last weeks kick. Did he not think their keeper would have watched the tape?

He reckons he was trying to go down the middle but slipped as he kicked it.

The fact remains that that miss probably cost us 2 points. Of course it is down to the Manager; it is down to poor preparation and that is the Manager's domain.

I don't see the logic here chaps. Are you saying if someone else would've taken the penalty, that Pressley would've chosen, would've DEFINITELY scored?

We've missed quite a few recently and Madine finally scores one last week, so you would (if you were manager) take him off penalty duty? What are next weeks lottery numbers whilst you're here?

I'd be far more worried about Pressley's post match comments and record over the last 12 months than trying to blame the penalty miss on him.

As for him placing it in the same place. Didn't Dion always used to put his to the keepers bottom left and scored something like 9/10 penalties for us doing this?

Stop using silly points to beat the manager with. It makes your other arguments against look invalid.

You don't have to use silly points to beat SP with. His own comments and actions does it all.
