Post by: Chris Black come back on March 11, 2023, 06:49:58 pm: I said this when it was announced, very surprising. He is a solid pro but he is getting worse, not better and we are playing at a lower level than when he was performing better. He’s a great lad but another two seasons, can anyone see Tom returning to his form of 2-3 seasons ago? Remember, this is a poor, poor level.

Let’s keep his performance (as with the rest of the team) in perspective, we were playing against a very, VERY, poor side.

I don’t want to this post to be seen as a negative. Just keep it ‘real’.

Worth the risk. Centre half's of his stature aren't that easy to find and likely be more costly.

Well there’s nothing like signing a new contract to remind you of your injury . That’ll be the last we see of him for the duration !!
