Saw him play right wing back the other week against Wigan reserves and he was the best player on the pitch that day from either side

Everything I've seen of Wright suggests he would be a good fit for our system as a wingback. He's relatively quick, direct, full of running, tenacious and of reasonable technical ability.  Attributes we lack for effective use of a 3-5-2, especially down the left hand side. Hendrie and RHJ down the right is fine as both can move forward but RHJ overlapping gives a real impetus. Down the left Ring doesn't look ready for the English game yet and some of his decision making leaves a lot to be desired. Time will tell on him. The left sided centre back has often been Collins who won't offer any overlap at all, nor would you expect him to.

Wright did struggle in the pre-season games at wingback but across the board we looked quite poor over the summer. I'm not sure any real judgement can be made of a player over that period.

I know it's disappointing how the season has fizzled out a bit but this is now a perfect opportunity to see how the fringe players perform on a consistent basis.  Wright, Rose, Vernam maybe even Cardwell (is he fit?) should be all be given decent runs in the starting line up from now on in my opinion, but I'd also like to see the younger lads like Pollock, Buckley and Burrell get chances. Loan spells and reserve games are fine but you never really know how a player will do until they're playing properly. Jack Lester was absolutely floundering here until his loan spell at Doncaster, where he hardly pulled trees up, but once he got in our first team he became a different animal.

We are a bit like England by having a few very promising players ready to break through and establish themselves in the team.

So England to win the Euro's and Town to win the league.  2020

Watched him play for Boston against Stockport a couple of weeks ago(Limberick and Rodger were there watching him)
He did ok and looked comfortable at that level although end product not always the best.
Be good to get him back and see how he fairs in league 2

Friend of mine who's a season ticket holder at York Street thinks he'll handle league football no problem - see below.

Aye, 100% comrade. If he can ride the tackles in this pub league he'll be fine in L2.
Check out his goal York on Saturday, a thing of rare beauty

Great composure for the goal when most others would have blasted it.
