You can only get mental strength through playing games. Class 92' got to play games. When they were shit they kept playing in the team.

You can't replicate the mental toughness for first team football unless you play first team football.

Now, if you are talking physical toughness then go and watch the 18s and 21s. They never get bullied at either age group and are at times ridiculed by other clubs for their physicality. They have this at each age group because they play games.

Mental strength comes from playing at The Lane when the crowd are pissed off, we need a win, we concede a goal, we score and need to keep a clean sheet, this strength can only come from being in that position.

Take penalty kicks, you can't replicate the mental side of taking a penalty in a shoot out in training. You only get that by doing it in a penalty shoot out.

If you dont play the youngsters they will never get the mental toughness needed.

Ferguson took them out for periods. He didn't keep them in willy nilly.

If players are injured or out of form we used their natural replacements. For O'Connell that is Jake Wright. . . Simples.

Can't be arsed reading the thread.

Wright has been clearly brought in to keep his ear to the ground for Wilder, we'll be paying him in Asda vouchers.

I know he did Sean but on the whole they were in and around the first team daily.

Thats my point really

Yes. See what you mean.

To tell CW what's going on behind his back, same as Adkins with Woolford.

One of his old mates, I said.

Exactly my point, there is no viable reason.
