Sorry to hear he's gone. He's been a part of the team for a while and thought whilst he was a little inconsistent, he did have some good games for us.

Good luck in your future endeavours, Aswad.

Quoted from grimsby pete


Thomas was out of contract at the end of the season,

It was him that took the option up oN his contract for a further year,

Not GTFC,

So he could have gone south last May.



Maybe so but being back home in the summer break could have made him feel more unsettled when he came back for pre-season training. I'm only playing devils advocate here but until we know all the facts then everything is just speculation and surely it is better to wait than condemn him off hand.

I'm just looking forward to Pearson and McKeown being to organise themselves and have a breather at breakdowns now. The poor illegitimates seemed to spend almost all their time screaming as Thomas for one reason or another.

I was not condemning him just stating a fact,

If he was home sick he could have gone home last May,

He chose to stay.

Isn't it the club who have the option of the extension? They get the option to either exercise the option or cancel it.

For example: A player signs a two year plus one year option deal. Effectively signing a three year contract but can be released after two should the club decide not to take the option. The player has already agreed to play for three years by signing the original contract.

No its normally the other way round, If a player plays so many games it can trigger a option on his contract, Bignot had one I believe which explains why he is still here.

All I will say is a lot of teams attacked us down the Thomas flank obviously been watching video's and worked out this was a weak spot. Nuff said.

Don't mean to sound harsh or anything, but, he was a good left back. Not out of the world and not rubbish, just ok.

I just don't see why this thread is still going!! Tony Daws didn't get this amount of airtime

This is a very interesting statement: - exactly what I witnessed at Harrogate Town in pre-season at very close hand.

Here's a question, would he be entitled to a league winner's medal if we (when) win the league?
The best medicine for AT is us winning the league and him missing out on playing in the Football league and not getting a medal.
