Didn't see the games, but didn't he make 2 or 3 appearances after the Swindon game and make little impact? An exciting prospect, but we should be careful about imagining he's the answer to all our problems.

Couldn't disagree more. Of the 3 PSFs I saw he stood out a country mile. Fast, confident and prepared to take players on and shoot ........ v successfully.

One of the few no-brainer starting team, ir at least in the bench. Now? Not seen since Swindon away.

I have my theories. Tragic waste if talent in meantime.........
Would you care to share them with us ?

He should at least be on the bench IMO.

Defensively not up to speed. More to playing in wide midfield than dribbling ability.

I imagine he will get a run out in the under 23s next week. He's a young lad, plenty of time for him to develop.

Yes Jack looks very promising but what’s the rush normally most of the fans would have never have seen
Him play and lots would never have heard of him,if it wasn’t for Tisdale giving him a pro contract a full one year early.

Also how many L2 clubs are playing 17 year olds in there team apart from us ?

Well that's why some people are calling for him to play :cos he signed a pro contract and he's good. A few more appearances this season would not go amiss.

Can't hurt for him to be on the bench.

Why do so many doubt Tis with developing players? Grimes, Friend, Watkins etc.

How many players have we released who've gone on better than us? Frear at a long push is the only one I can think of.
