Coal tit would have obvious wing bars at this angle. So that leaves the other two.
Unfortunately this bird's obscured partly but my gut feeling is Marsh. Willow in comparison have a bull-necked big-headed appearance & more untidy bibs ( and as I'm typing this you can bet that someone else is saying its Willow!)
Willow also have a pale wing panel - which I think you wold see something of even though this one's part hiden.

tarzzz said:They are hard those Marsh/Willow-tits.. but, looks like a large bib=Willow.. rather dull black cap = Willow.. more greyish than brownish= Willow.. so. Willow tit !

I'll go willow as the cap doesn't seem to meet where the brown starts on the back.
