Conor Thomas has blagged a 3 year contract (1 Viewer)

Everybody wants to see the positives in a player who pulls on a Sky Blue shirt. Some decide on a player's limitations early on (I was quickly convinced that Lorenzen was a full back who didn't actually tackle). Conor offered almost zero goal threat and little creativity. The only player I can recall like that who was appreciated and added something to the team was Lloyd McGrath. Conor has all the physical attributes, but for whatever reason it never looked like happening for him with us. If he scores more than 2 in a season for Swindon, I will buy Grendel a beer.

But he still has the experience of a hundred games. Why are you so bitter about two people who have left the club? I would also say you have misjudged both.
Why are you blindly defending one of the worst centre midfielders we've ever had.

He isn't one of the worst we have ever had. I could name 5 far worse before I even start thinking.

Why people are so anti this guy I haven't a clue. It's strange how for some, players like Haynes can be awful but escape any wrath but this guy can't.

I'd argue he is one of the worst I've seen in a city shirt.

Whether it's been a confident knock with the injuries he's had, or maybe we haven't found his best position, but I fail to see anything positive from him. Ever. And it's not like he's not been given a shot.

Name 5 worse who have played over 100 times.

You said he's one of the worst - why change the definition? How many central midfielder have played over 100 games for us in the last 40 years?

Well fine he's just generally one of our worst ever players.

Ryan Haynes is also shit before you continue your obsession with him.

Steve Jacobs played over 100 games and he was worse.

Wayne Turner was worse.

David bowman was worse.

Julian Darby was worse

Martin Jol was worse

I'm just not as old and angry as you then I guess

I'm not angry. Thomas is a reasonable league one player - he has a 3 year deal. It's you that seems to resent that not me.

He definately isn't one of our worst ever players. Prefer him to Bigi, thats for sure. Adam Barton too.

I am not blindly defending anyone. I just don't believe in continuing to choke on my own bile once someone has left the club.
