He may go on and do well, but he wasn't getting anywhere with us.Just leaving this here so either I, or someone elsecan bump this in a season or two.
Now personally I feel Conor Thomas will be the biggest mistake to let go out of him, Fleck and Vincelot.
Let's see how *that* judgement pans out, eh.
I agree with you. I said many times last season that I struggled to see how RV was any better than Thomas in any case.Just leaving this here so either I, or someone elsecan bump this in a season or two.

Conor Thomas was on about 5k a week and Vincelot on about 2k a week. That was the difference.
Seem to remember having had my told you so moment many years ago. CC4L and I were discussing a hedge fund taking over the club on the old BBC 606 site . We both agreed careful what you wish for there will be problems whilst many others were falling over themselves because Joy and her investors had saved the club. Gives me absolutely no pleasure to be right on that and a few other things
I think you posted this expecting to be in the minority of having that opinion but everyone has so far agreed with you. To add some balance (and my genuine opinion) I will go on record as saying I think you're wrong. Fleck will be most missed.
I agree, and he also has the highest ceiling of the 3 in terms of ability. Wouldn't surprise me if he had a season or 2 in the premier league at some point during his career.
Vincelot could play Championship. Thomas is a bit of an unknown but suspect low end Championship would be his ceiling.
Shame Swindon decided to pay him £5k pw then, really.
I have to say I don't think we will miss Conor at all in my opinion
Not sure why you think he will score goals, his shooting is appalling.Conor Thomas isn't a natural defensive midfielder. He will score goals for Swindon, 6 or 7 if he gets 36 games and plays box to box.
Useless in both boxes and not particularly great in between them either.

Is this like top trumps?Seem to remember having had my told you so moment many years ago. CC4L and I were discussing a hedge fund taking over the club on the old BBC 606 site .

I do think that Thomas will do well if used correctly as for anything else will just take what comes
More like it :emoji_medal:Might as well throw Haynes into this thread and revisit in 2 years so I can say I told you so!:emoji_stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
