He looks to be getting regular minutes of playing time, and got 2 goals last night, which should help his confidence.
To me, this is what a loan period at a decent level can provide, that very irregular reserve fixtures cannot give to any fringe player, as it is expensive to arrange private behind closed doors fixtures, just to perhaps give one or two players some realistic time on a pitch in a competitive situation.
If he then returns at full fitness, then his chance of making the matchday squad are back in his own hands with the player trying to impress the management team during training sessions.
Hopefully, a good result all round !!
There is obviouly a decent player in there, who needs to stay fit and push to be ready to play.
Shaun Pearson will return in the same vein - ready to jump in if needed.

Agree but it's a double edged sword as well for others. Loan players coming from higher up often take the position of those players in the team . Knock on effect which reflects the dog eat dog culture of football. You hear and read about it in training as well. Players comparing themselves to others and the competitive nature of football can lead to training ground bust ups in house.

That competitive nature of football is good though, isn't it? You want players to compare themselves to others and strive to be better. It doesn't even have to be loan players, within your own core of players you want a competitive element.
If there are any players in our, or any, squad that sulk over competition rather than take the challenge on, then I can't imagine they've got the mental fortitude to have a successful career.

Yes, but it must be frustrating for lads in football who have the mental resolve to want to achieve but are capped by their technical ability and will only go so far in football. On the other hand you get players in the game who have an abundance of talent but don't maximise it. It's why I've always admired the likes of Christiano Ronaldo and others who strive mentally to do their best alongside natural technical ability which get the best out of their God given talents .

I'm looking forward to him coming back, all guns blazing and showing us what he can do after coming off the bench with 3 minutes to go. It would be nice if had a Vernam-style rejuvenation on loan, but it doesn't happen too often. Here's hoping...

Prior to Tuesday I’d read he’d been underwhelming for them and want half the player he’d been whilst on loan. We’ll have to see what January holds.

Ahhh, Charles Vernam, a fine example of a player who seemed to get better without kicking a ball. Stood out in a woeful team… Good loan spell or not, I’m not expecting Wearne to come back here and get in the side. He’s done ‘alright’ at a bottom half conference side…

There's no denying that Vernam got into a really good run of form after returning from his loan spell at Chorley and he was playing some really good stuff when the pandemic hit.
Hes struggled to establish himself elsewhere since then, but has been playing a division above us much of that time. His record at Bradford was decent enough for a forward who does much of his work in wide areas.
I'd be happy to see him back here.

I would be surprised if both Wearne and JMD returned to GTFC.
I don't think Wearne is good enough and seeing an interview with JMD he talks as if he is staying there.

The way in which Yeovil confidently announced JMD was going to sign permanently in January makes it pretty obvious it's a done deal. As I mentioned previously, my guess is that Hurst has a replacement lined up and they are waiting until that is announced before the JMD deal completes.
Somebody at Yeovil didn't get the memo.
I also reckon that Wearne will probably be on his way.
Perhaps Hurst is looking at different types of players to these two and not simple replacements? A change in the style of play, perhaps?
