If it's a big game, against a well known opponent, they come out well off the gate, well prepared (immunized) and play a good game, win or lose. If it's a lesser side, they have no idea how to play, no memory cells to built on.

Permanently affecting the career of a guy who made one mistake (putting him at the low end of the Mistakes Table for that match for England) to placate the fans and media is a serious violation of trust. He's either your number one or he's not... and if he is, you stick by him through one error, at least. |
