Also MOTM and slotted a great through ball in for a peno that Ben Davies smashed home, whilst wearing Max's spare boots may i add! The lad is desperate to play for town. He's been here since aged 9 and got over 2 broken ankles. He is the 1st on the training ground and the last off it. He plays in reserve games when struggling with cuts and bruises when asked whereas certain other 'superstars' say no thanks when theyre asked to play!. He volunteers to clean the boots. The B team take on the 1st team in training and the majority of the time he and Akheem batter, bruise, skin and beat the 1st team into defeat by playing a different way whereas the 1st team must stay in Jolleys shape obvs. He can't do anymore to get a recall. He's just does not fit into the way Jolley wants the team to play and it's pretty gutting to know that he has nearly given up hope. We will end up losing him to another medeocre club where he will shine if given the chance which is a real shame. Jolley will go, we will still be here, yet another local lad, few and far between, may not make it through no fault of his own. It's ok trusting in Jolley, he knows what he is doing etc but it doesnt always mean he is right, he is just implementing what he believes in. Fingers crossed he succeeds. Similar to what someone said earlier, Max is just in the wrong place at the wrong time.

A good prospect, maybe you need to meet with MJ and discuss. Point worth making if we recalled the players we have out on loan when their hosts still mathematically have a chance of promotion clubs wouldn’t take our youngsters going forward. As much as Town are playing a role in developing the likes of Embleton we need clubs to take our prospects too. Max has a deal, he’s clearly a really good player he’ll get his chance 100%.

If his deal was up at the end of the season, I'd have been a bit annoyed to see his loan extended. But as Herts says, he's under contract, so I don't see the harm in letting him see out the year where he is. Jolley must rate him, he gave him a 2 year deal.

At the end of the day with our meagre budget getting these young players into the side is:
A) The only way we are going to make any progress.
B) If he does well he would be an investment for the club able to generate extra income when clubs come sniffing around.
This is how it as always been here.
Jolley knows all about investments and assets at least that much is certain.

Spot on! He is in a team, challenging for promotion, 5 points off play-offs with 5 games to play, and he's playing football. What good is it, coming back to us, not starting, in a team with nothing to play for? makes no sense to me at all. Akheem Rose, 18? years old. Since the turn of the year, there has been 1260 minutes of league football played without added time, Rose has played 99mins of that... I think Wright is benefiting a lot more than Rose is

Akheem is 21 in November. Completely agree with you, no point in coming back to sit on the bench or even in the stands. Physical condition and development needs to play a part more than age. It’s clear Max is a slight lad and playing regularly the last 2 years will have taught him how to ride challenges and deal with physical players. By all accounts he’s been excellent for Boston as he was for Scarborough last season. Hopefully he can come back in July and show Jolley what a winger is!

My understanding from what I've been told is that the club are currently looking for Max to go out on loan until January before reassessing. I've seen him play for Boston a few times this season but on Saturday he was the standout player. His goal of was a poachers finish, he always looked to get his cross off but his through ball that led to the penalty was great.

Seems bonkers* that they'd take that decision before this season has finished.
*to me, who basically knows nothing about how these things work

Just wait and see what happens before you start badmouthing Jolley. If I was Boston’s manager and Jolley recalled Max now at this point of the season I’d be fuming, he’s doing a great job there and needs to finish.
