I'm pretty sure Thompson's a backrower, are you thinking of Jonathan Walker who we've also been linked with?

Sick of signing players with 'potential' - we need players that are ready to go and push us to the top 4

This has got me rushing with excitement to renew my pass! Underwhelmed is about as kind a word I can use.

Wiki have him down as FB by choice but can also fill in at Wing / Centre

Exactly!



How much potential has actually turned into talent that Gentle has recruited so far? I would argue non of them have.



Arundel - Awful season with injuries and form.

Crookes - Average season with limited game time, terrible under high ball.

Pitts - Not shown any improvement since he played for Leeds for me.

Watts - Form has gone backwards at FC.

Johnson - Average at best, does not make any hard meters.



Sick and tired of these poor signings.

Don't really know anything about him or seen him play so I'll wait until next season to judge him. Welcome Jordan.

So I am, oops

Arundel was playing very well when he came back from his initial injury.



Pitts has also been veryu good in games this season, does an awful lot of work.



Not seen enough of Johnson this year to really form an opinion, though he was fantastic at saints early in the season.



Watts really needs to pull his finger out.



Crookes is a poor signing, feels like a panic buy.

Will reserve judgement on him til i see him play but good luck mate...your going to need it...if you havent got 100 caps for England,Aus or Kiwis then your totally crap and we shouldnt sign players from team below us...Hmmm..wonder who else do that..oh yeah,all the clubs ABOVE us.

Just cannot see the ambition in a signing like this. I really don't know who's convincing Pearson that players like Thompson will get us into the top 4.

Oh well there goes my theory. not sure what to make of that one really. Not sure wether Bomber's avin laugh at our expense.



Hope he proves us wrong.

How much is the likely to improve? As mentioned in Sheldons earlier post, he has made made nearly a 100 appearances.



I think it's a really poor signing, shows no sign of ambition at all from the club. A few will disagree but most will agree on that point.
