Thompson debut this Sunday?

Go for Thompson. Surley to *, he cant be any worse than those 2!!! infact, its hard enough to actaully be as bad never mind worse!!!

wonder how much for thompson 1st goal

 

dont know if hes ready yet its a big step up especially with a team like dundee utd away but can he be any worse then the other 2 dont think so.i would have o dea back straight away if hes not injured

 

Got to step up sometime ,there's been loads of players younger than him been fired in ,no time like the present.

 

thats true

 

I feel it is a very big ask for the guy.

Has to be remembered that his only first team experience is in league one, and it is a huge leap up from there to running out in front of 50,000 people.

Would be a shame if he was thrown in too soon cos Tony's hand was forced by injuries...

 

Why buy if he isn't ready to play?

 

Mogga said he has to be ready to play..so I'm expecting the youngster in the starting XI

 

I'd give him a go. There too much science behind it now. Is he physically ready, mentally ready, tactically aware, one for the future? At the end of the day there only one way to learn and thats to play the game, he trains with 1st team and im sure he knows how to tackle, head the ball and clear his lines. If he's struggling theres plenty of experience there to assist.

 

Im just amazed an 18 yr old is being considered for center back, he must have a lot of potential as that's quite unusual for that position.. anyone know anything about the other guys Curtis Jones and Michael Ordish?

 

tannadice been done up overnight?

 

If Thompson is played it will be a fiery baptism that is for sure. You don't
get much tougher than Dundee United away. In saying that I sincerely wish the lad well as I have been advocating that Josh gets his chance now, given the paucity of the play of Caldwell and McManus in recent games.

And if Rangers have no qualms about playing Wilson at seventeen, then we similarly should have no reservations about playing Josh Thompson at eighteen.

 

Lets hope he has a great game an keeps McManus & caldwell out the Squad in the future!

 

I agree

i agree hes not fit enough

 

i hope he plays, ive not seen him play, but the pics ive seen he looks big and alot of muscle, so im guessing maby a bit pace about him aswell... hopefully lol

 

ah well so much for that.

 

i hope he plays, but also could see the positive of having a defender that can put their foot on the ball and play it out of defense if zhi plays

 

after todays late debacle Thompson should walk into that team ahead of the likes of Caldwell

 

Clawedwell shouldn't be played given his attitude and contract situation. That's before you even consider just how dogshite awful his form is.

I'd rather play youth than that arrogant fat *.

 

Really wish we could see this guy play some, he can't be any worse than what we have.

 

It was another blunder by Mowbray not playing Josh Thompson instead of Caldwell who was in blunderland again in Dundee.

Why we are continuing to play an arrogant fud like Caldwell, who is in contract dispute with us, and who looks like he couldn't care a * about us
anymore, if he ever did, beggars belief

Caldwell is now running the average of a howler every game which is costing us precious points and sabotaging our league prospects.
