Coventry City boss Steven Pressley urges players to build on away win

Coventry City boss Steven Pressley challenges his players to put a run together after racking up their second away win of the League One season.

Coventry City manager Steven Pressley has called on his players to build on their 2-0 win away to Port Vale and push towards the upper reaches of League One.

The victory was only their second on the road this season, but the Sky Blues boss believes that they may have turned a corner.

"In the last six leagues games we've won three, drawn two and lost one, but that's only a start. We must show we can be consistent over many more games than that if we are to achieve anything," PA Sport quotes him as saying.

"I was very pleased today because this was a very professional performance. It was also another clean sheet and that will breed confidence.

"There was a real desire from all of the players to get this result and that is always a very good starting point. Without that desire, you've got nothing."

The result leaves Coventry in 14th place in the table, six points away from the playoff positions.
