Quote: Encouraged "That the game was off and might not even be played at all. Did he understand it cos my little lad didn't.'"
My lad is 11 so he is pretty much fully clued up, been a fanatic since he was 3. But I do remember having to explain some bad times to him. Like our last season in SL. I remember carry him back to the car at Cas, him being in tears and asking "Dad, will we ever win a game?". That was his first season so he got off to a bad start.
But I can see how there must of been some very upset young children today, like the kids that dance at half-time, of the mascot or just about any kid that spent the weekend looking forward to the game.
