Life in the first team is proving to be a tough learning curve for Holbeach United’s youngsters.
The Tigers cubs crashed out of the Thurlow Nunn League Cup 4-0 at home to local rivals Parson Drove last Wednesday and were then swamped in the league on Saturday, going down 7-1 at Dussindale & Hellesdon Rovers.
Parson Drove surged into a two-goal lead inside 12 minutes of the cup tie and led 3-0 at the interval before adding a fourth in the last ten minutes.
Substitute Josh Williams got Holbeach’s consolation goal in the heavy Division One North defeat at The Nest, in Norwich.
