Have been in difficult situations myself, but thank god never in such. You often think about yourself as being calm and staying 'cool' in certain situations, but what happens in reality (when you have to prove what you think about yourself) will sometimes.. surprise you. I found 'Lord Jim' by Joseph Conrad to be a very good example.

When it gets tight you often do not have the oversight nor the experience to act perfectly, or even 'ok'. Don't know if i expressed this right.. I would not say that Duckenfield is guilty or to be held responsible alone, although what happened was covered up. I can only imagine what he has gone through in his isolation, all those years.
Most important thing is to learn not to misjudge a 'situation' again.
