This is probably relevant to Livi as we play them at home a week on Saturday, so let's bump this over onto to the main board. |

It seemed that many of the Livingston fans did not like this gentleman.
There is a side effect from him departing Scottish football.
He appeared to be the only significant voice against 12 12 18.
So there will be no dissenting voice against the authorities plans to make that change.
So although it may cheer us to see him depart, it may have a outcome we will all regret.

It may be that he realised his dissenting voice was "the voice of one crying in the wilderness" so he was better off getting out to a sensible league structure.

I never signed up to the Pressley hatefest. I think he did a decent job at Falkirk and will probably do a decent job at Coventry.
The other day there I thought about whether he would be a guy I'd like to see as the Livi manager and in a lot of ways he'd probably have been well suited to the job.

TLD - thank you most kindly Sir/Madam for your welcome!
Although many thought he was a gob****, he spoke with more than half a brain, passion and a pretty good idea of what football was about. Given the passion and apparent large pair of betty swallocks with his outspokenness (is that a word) I fink he'd have been good for us. M-T-L !

Why would a manager select to work in Scotland unless they were really desperate for work when as you say the structure is all wrong to develop a modern footballing style. |

He got off to a winning start anyway coming from 1-0 down to win 2-1 away to S****horpe.

LL21, it looks as if the rude filter does not like East coast towns!

Itll be interesting to see how falkirk get on without him. I remember Yogi saying it was him that got the ball rolling on the youth development front there so pressley may have just been enjoying the benefit of the work put in by others a few years before.
Ill never forgive him for being a super dong the day they scored a last minute penalty against us to draw 1-1 last season. Muppet.

Spookily, rather than being in opposing dugouts at Almondvale this Saturday, Yogi and Pressley will be facing up to each other at the Ricoh Arena in League 1 instead.
