A teenager dropping a bollock on a site or in a factory, although getting the piss sarcastically taken out of him, has the fallback of the mistake being rectified that day, tomorrow even next week. It all happens in 90 minutes in a game, no putting it right in that time. Brutal, but they have to learn quick if they want to make it. Especially in our precarious position at the moment, there’s no, ‘Oh, he’s learning the game, he’ll come good in five or six games time’.
