I would have liked Rose as an option from the bench I doubt Robles will ever get near the bench given his obvious lack of fitness.


Robles has been on the bench every game this season. Apart from the Chuckatrade game which he started.

Agreed. Jack Lester didn't get a run of games until he was 21, for example.


And he most definitely benefited from his loan spell at Doncaster.  He didn't look like anything like the threat he became up until that loan spell.

Quoted from Rik e B


Different people mature physically at different rates -Rooney looked about 30 at 15/16 whereas some people are boyish in their early twenties.

I know it may be hard for clubs to justify holding on to a young adult to see if he any cop once develops a man's physique but I wonder how many extremely talented youngsters have been tossed on the footballing scrapheap just because unfortunately for them their hormonal goings on a bit behind?

Loads I bet. I lt's good that Jolley has spotted the potential within and given out 2 and 3 year deals to give these boys/young men chance to fill out and have a fair pop at things.



Obviously Jolley sees a future for Max otherwise he wouldn't have given him a contract in the summer. This is a good move for both players providing they do get game time and don't spend the loan period warming the Boston bench

Here's another difference between then and now.....

I remember watching Reserve games for ages where Jack was playing (and usually doing quite well). I'm sure there must have been far more reserve games back in those days and I'm sure it helped Jack's development too. There wasn't the rush to get him out on loan (although he obviously went out at one point) because he was getting regular football in the reserves league.

Always remember it seemed an age for him to get his chance in the first team and after starring for the reserves for so long.

Short review of their first game (plus a recent hero):  

'...what a revelation the two Grimsby lads were, two lads with great futures ahead of them. Sorry for lack of names but the 19year old winger is like lightening in attack but also dashing back to support his fullback, excellent. The Centre forward again very quick but also a good brain on him, frightening the opposition to death and his headed goal was exquisite. A special mention for Nathan Arnold, a lovely goal but his work rate getting back and getting a foot in was exemplary'.

A good friend of mine is a Boston fan and he went to Stockport yesterday and said both of the lads were excellent. Keep it up Max and Ahkeem, you'll get your chances soon enough if you do.
