Weir wont change his system and style. It is ok to use this system and style at Academy level as it is important to develop the players without the pressure of winning games. It is different at 1st team level. Had we appointed Downes we would have been at the other end of the table and have less of the tippy tappy nonsense. In normal circumstances , Hill would have cleared the ball out (just before Preston scored) but I think he was playing to Weir's instructions that when a defender is in the same situation then he should make more effort to hold the ball and then pass the ball to a team mate but today it went wrong and then Preston took advantage. we have to cut out these silly risks
