You have a lot of faith in him, I sincerely hope you're right. I watch him and think - meh.

it is not that I have faith in him, I don't know whether he can recapture that form that he had at Dundee United. But if he can we will have a really good player (certainly above Lge 1 standard). Someone who gives you movement, scores spectacular goals and knows when to lay it off. He can play left or right and through the middle.
If Mowbrey feels it is a no at least there is a club in the waiting. But it would be nice if he could resurrect his career here.....it would be our gain after all.
We would.
Sounds like you never saw him in a Dundee United shirt.

That was a long long time ago, look at Simeon Jackson....
Fingers crossed TM can get the best out of him.

have we sacked Mowbray already?!?If Mowbrey can get Swanson back on song we wouldn't need one.

Well at least there is a club waiting if Mowbrey doesn't fancy him. I am sure Mowbrey will move him on quickly if he doesn't think he can produce the goods.
If you are correct, then apologies.
Just can't see it myself. Why would coaches be discussing contracts etc when a game is going on? And surely it's up to TM who starts games, not said coaches?
Was surprised to see Thomas get the armband in the second half given that Romain and Ricketts were on the pitch.
Sounds like you never saw him in a Dundee United shirt.
no I didn't. I saw him in a city shirt and based my opinion on that.
I like Thomas, but he's one of a few midfield players to come through the academy being neither one thing nor the other. Finch also springs to mind. Not good enough either defensively or going forward but a reasonable technical player.
What really irks me with Thomas is that in terms of athleticism and physicality he has it all, but he regularly fails to use this to his advantage. Doesn't express himself enough with and without the ball either. Finch although still young, looks like a carbon copy of Thomas, but with less technical ability.
Makes you wonder if the issue is with the (old?) academy staff and training methods. We do (did?) seem to go through certain "types" of player, attacking full back is another we've had a few of recently.
Callum Ball (I know he came through at Derby) Bet he was 6ft & the same build at 13/14 bullied & bossed his way through the age groups & youth football hits pro & his lack of ability comes through & can't use his physical power against proper men.
Thanks, I'd tried to forget about him!!

He's a free agent...
I never mentioned anything about contracts.. Maybe that was his opinion about Thomas not starting I don't know but his words were "not a chance" I personally don't mind Thomas and being from cob I want him to do well.. Look at all my others posts and see if I have made anything up. Only telling what I heard him say.
What a surprise

Ideal scenario for us, especially as we will receive a fee for him
ccfclinney: He was talking to another accademy coach I think it was or his friend.. He said Thomas but then he said what about george and he said couple of games.. He was also talking about a youngster signing a 6 year contract.
I'd say you did mention contracts....
