“There was a young lad called Parkinson who was supposed to play. They had done all the team shape all week and then on Friday afternoon he’s all playing and tells his family.

“Then he gets in on Saturday and Sharon has had a dream that Peschisolido was about to score so unfortunately Parky didn’t make the bench and he changed it.

“That’s what you’ve got to deal with. There’s lot of stories like and that’s just a mild one.”
