I'd say the team did keep going until the end.

after the sending off, I assumed a 4 or 5-0

But they made a game of it, and with 10 men, away and a dodgy ref, were unlucky

Disappointing nonetheless, but hopefully this spirit will result in a valuable 3 points next game

LAST PUSB

I thought you were going to say Seabourne is to miss the next three games :D

Might be the only way the CB pairing is going to get changed!

No haha :) I hope the back 4 will be:

Adams Webster Willis Clarke/Christie

Is there one? at this stage of the season and our current position, a loss is a loss and the only positive would be a win as far as I am concerned.

Me too. Willis did OK today I thought, but he's definitely a CB rather than a RB. Just like Clarke is a RB rather than a CB (or even worse LB).

Only concern of playing Willis alongside Webster is that his game might be hampered by having a young player alongside side him (when they were paired together before it was almost as though he spent his time concentrating on his own game but also Willis's

agreed. but a fighting performance is better than a roll over and die attitude surely?

A vital game at a vital time of the season against what has to be said, a piss poor team and we go and shoot ourselves in the foot with a sending off and pen after 25 mins. Complete write off of a game and it won't be long before the others catch us. It's in our hands but ffs city stop conceding pathetic goals it's embarrassing now how many gifts we give other teams.

I am happy with the never say die attitude, but in the cold light of day we defend like we do and keep making individual mistakes then it doesn't matter if Pressley has 11 William Wallaces out there, battling will only get you so far.

I know mate and it's good that the players still have that attitude because it shows me 2 things, the players still have pride and they still want to play for the manager. However, I am starting to think that maybe Pressley needs to change his tactics because if this carries on I can only see trouble and I wonder that with all the loans we have and short terms if the players really have the stomach for a relegation battle.

Tbh, Christie went off the boil a bit I think. His defending needed improving. However if like to think time out of the team has made him more determined to come back and win his place back. And right now is probably the right time for him to stand up and be counted!

Either that or SP is preparing for next season........without him.......

Just a thought

If he is planning for next season he needs to drop a few more that won't be here.
