Not even playing for the under 23's, hopefully cancel his contract by mutual consent.

Not forgetting young Sam McCallum. He is better then junior Brown.

The season prior to us signing him he did well in a good Shrewsbury team but didn't he also sustain a bad injury?
Secondly Mason has come in and is steadily improving. McCallum looks a good prospect; from a business perspective it makes sense to free the pathway for Mason and McCallum to compete bearing in mind they are younger and will have a higher potential value to cash in on.

It's a strange one
I believe there was a club interested in taking him in pre season but they were rebuffed as it was felt Brown would be more involved this season
It's obviously not worked out that way though

As I think his absence is related to his ability or lack of in relation to Mason and we have an up and coming youngster also.
Surly if we pay 30% of his wages to get the other 70% off the books it would be good business?

Been loads of rumours about him being disruptive in the dressing room. I heard that he was pissing people off and moaning about stuff almost immediately after arriving.

Yet there are morons on this hallowed portal calling Max a leech, some of our support, fucking brainless.

Back from serious injury and on high wages. It didn't work out, sometimes it doesn't, bit he has a contract and if nobody matches it, i can't blame him. Need to agree a pay off tbf. Thats life, no grudges. No disruption either from what I heard. Shame as i had high hopes. Same for Ogogo really.

That's putting a bit strongly in both cases, particularly Brown's!
Plenty of time for us to start putting these rumours about!!!

I don’t think much to McCallum times I’ve see him play even at under 23 level he seems very average always has a mistake in him,Brown is the better player from the 2 agreed at different stages of their careers.

That's your opinion. I respect that. But I don't agree.

Based on what? He looked poor last season. Brown would given his game experience clearly be s better option
Irish Sky Blue

Mark Robins was hinting at the kit launch do that Mason will really have to be on the top of his game to keep McCallum out this season. He obviously rates him. When he played last season you could see the potential he has even though he was a bit rocky at times.

A tad harsh, there were a few games where he looked decent. He also had 1 or two where he looked poor. Would be naive to suggest he's ahead of Brown for sure, but I've seen enough to suggest there is ability there, just needs to find consistency.

Nothing like a manager trying to motivate two players is there.

He is very raw, but he hasn't come from an established academy so that's arguably to be expected.
MR clearly thinks highly of him and wants him to develop, but I think he needs to time in the U23 than first team to do that. I certainly can't see the reason why he's being fast-tracked towards the first team ahead of Brown at this moment in time, unless there is some other underlying reason.

McCallum is only 18 so naturally he's still learning the game, especially the defensive side
He's very athletic, has decent pace and gets up and down the field
Expect a lot of interest from clubs higher up the pyramid once he establishes himself

Good point 18 years old still we must remember

That's sort of the point I was making - he's still very young and being fast tracked towards the first team ahead of Brown at this point in time when he needs to develop both physically and tactically doesn't seem like the best course of action to me.
I'm not saying he doesn't have potential or ability, I just think he needs some edges knocking off in the U23 for a bit yet. I expect him to only play the occasional part in the first team with Mason being used predominantly, but if Mason got injured I'm not sure what route MR would go.
