I'd agree, his 45 minutes against vale of lethen definitely trumps:

Scott brown's cis cup win, 4.4m transfer fee and numerous trophies and league wins with celtic.

steven whittaker's cis cup win, 2m transfer fee and spell in the premiership.

steven fletcher's two goals in a cis cup final and numerous goals in the premiership.

Derek riordan's 100 plus goals for the first team.

but yeh. 45 minutes vs vale of lethen a?

For goodness sake. It's not disrespectful comparing a non league team to teams in the english premier league. Vale of Lethen are of a lower standard than the type of teams the players I mentioned have played against.

if anyone is getting abuse it should be the OP for the most ridiculous thread this side of a calendar signing.

Max is a good young talent and in time he may well secure a first team berth. Any comparison with JC is a tad unfair on Max but I understand what the OP meant. He was perhaps comparing Max with the JC who was similarly trying to work his way into the first team, not the JC who'd already done that to good effect

Max is indeed Bobby's grandson and last time I spoke to Bobby he was very proud of Max. However he is still a young laddie and needs to be treated as such. Great talent but let's not a) get on his back as this forum tends to do & b) build him up too much. Let him develop and we could have a talent on our hands.

Doesn't matter who you play, if you have talent it will shine through. But let's just bin him because he's not won a trophy.

I went to watch the U20's and the EOS team a few times last season, and Max Todd always stuck out as a great wee player.. I remember the last U20's game against Killie at the training centre, Butcher was there watching, so was Malpas.. Max Todd Played OK but wasn't his best game, that loan signing kid, Duncan Watmore played too.. He was mince!!! Really seriously mince!! McPake played that day too and was solid.. Next first team game, was 1-1 at home to Partick, McPake never started, and Watmore did.. He was really Mince!!! McPake never played for us again, Watmore went back to Sunderland, and we got relegated!!!

As you're keeping this going, I would say it appears the majority of people on this thread, including me, did regard your post as a tad weird. You may not have noticed but the OP's comment had a ? at the end. I regarded it as a somewhat lighthearted & OTT comment. You're the only one who seems to have taken it seriously & for some reason been offended by it.

So? All I said is it's unfair for him to automatically be hailed the best since Collins, let him develop with no pressure. Exactly and by giving them a chance to flourish we can't be saying their the best player ever to as soon as he's had a bad game he's murder, happened to Harris.

I'm not a believer in comparisons I think we should just let the lad get on with it and continue to enjoy his football
