Adam Thompson

[Rattus Norvegicus]

Was an unused sub as Bury drew today.

Don't we play them soon at their "gaff"?

 

[SeaSideDoughnut]

We do. I wonder if he'll even play...

 

[SeaSideDoughnut]

Wasn't even on the bench for Bury's third defeat in a row. I can't find anything about any injuries just an article about being keen to make up for lost time, so I'm going to assume he was fit for selection. If so, perhaps the worst defence in the league and still can't get in the team. League Two beckons, I'm sure this wasn't the plan Adam.

 

[Ricey]

Shame as he was doing so well with us, grass isn’t always greener and he should’ve stayed. Bet he regrets it!

He definitely was on the bench, he didn't come on though.

Really? I guess I must have not wanted to see him there then! :smile:

Scored for Walsall

Ouch! In the last minute of the game too!

Could be the goal that effectively relegates them

 

[THE SEVENTIES NORTH BANK]

It's all gone pear for Adam. First of all he wasn't getting the game time at Bury, and lambasted after a heavy defeat by Lee Clarke who said his signing was a mistake after playing only 3 games. Then he gets loaned out and dropped and sent back early by Bradford, and now this. Sometimes it's not good to move when offered a bit more money.

In fairness, I think they are going down anyway, regardless of yesterday's result, but I can see that it certainly didn't help.

And he has lost his place in the Nothern Ireland squad

 

[Ricey]

I’m going to throw it out there and say I would have him back here. Think the experience of Turner and Ferdinand would help him. He would be a better option at centre back than White IMO.

The game is all about opinions I guess but in terms of Adam Thompson my opinion has never changed. A League 2 player at best. Was no loss to us when he left and wouldn't be 5th choice here now.

I reckon he'll still find a League 1 club next season, Bury have been a shambles this season even when he wasn't playing and Bradford never really gave him a chance so I think there will be a club willing to believe the 2016/17 player is still in there.

I think our initial struggles at the start of the season were due to not having Thompson or replacing him.

 

[cerbera45]

For his height, AT is not very good in the air imho.

 

[AndyT]

Have now seen the (o.g) and it's steered perfectly into the bottom corner!

That said, he had a good header at the other end virtually cleared off the line, so it wasn't his day. :thumbdown:

Yes, I would consider having Thommo back. Can't help saying that White has played very well this season on a number of occasions. Add in Turner and (perhaps) Kyps and we would have the 4 central defenders that a club needs - 2 at the lower age spectrum and 2 at the upper age spectrum.

Should life at Fleetwood not be suiting Bolger then there is another "old player" to add to the summer discussion ............

Can't see that happening. He's doing very well at Fleetwood, and by all accounts, he didn't like it down here.
