This poor Irish ballboy gets clattered with an absolute thunderbolt during a game (Video)

If you've ever wanted to be a ballboy on the football, you might want to reconsider.

It's a bloody dangerous job - especially if your team's strikers can't get a shot on target. The youngster must have thought he was safe well wide of the goal posts - but he copped a thunderbolt of a shot right in the head, sending him to the deck. We think he'll probably be safer standing in the back of the net next time. https://twitter.com/ciarandonaghy/status/640195095933882368?s=09
