Shot-stopper Max Bramley loving loan spell at AFC Telford

The 20-year-old is on a season-long loan from Leicester City and has made 11 appearances for the Bucks.

He feels he has made a good adjustment to men's football – but knows there is plenty of room for improvement too.

"You need the experience as it's very difficult to jump straight into the Football League," said Bramley.

"I'd definitely say to give it a go and see what it's all about.

"You've got to chuck yourself in at the deep end, test yourself, and get to know what men's football is all about.

"It's good to get that feel of what the senior game is like and I feel I've done OK so far.

"I'd definitely recommend it as I'm really enjoying myself here and learning something new every day.

"I had to do it for my development, while also looking to help Telford achieve their targets."

Bramley was part of the Leicester side which finished third in Premier League 2 last campaign.

He has been competing with Andy Wycherley for the Telford No.1 shirt in recent weeks and also had Sheridan Martinez to battle against before the 25-year-old left the club by mutual consent a few weeks ago.

Bramley has kept two clean sheets for the Bucks. They were the first two games of the season though so he would have been eager for a shut-out against National League North leaders Chorley at the New Bucks Head today.

The biggest difference he has noticed between development football and the senior game is how important wins are.

"It's completely different to what I was used to. Men's football is very physical and you always have to be on your toes," added Bramley.

"In under-23s football you always want to win, but it's mainly about development.

"Here's it's all about results, getting them here and now. That's the main thing at the end of the day, the three points.

"The wins come first and the performances, really, come second."
