So April 8th it is then for Dave to join Forever R's!

Really good to see that he is now able to enjoy his life more.

Thanks for posting this W13R

It seems positive to me, as he can now get around with his dog.

Some great photos of Thomas in full flight down the wing.

I see he doesn't rate Sterling (as a traditional winger).

A Ted Hendrix all-time hero too,I feel I'm pretty safe in writing.

Well done The Sun for an excellent article - well over 200 words!
That must be at the very edge of their readers usual range - wowzers!

Amazing how they found an opening illustrative image - DT in a 74/75 shirt
where his socks are rolled up.
He was an icon with them down and no shin-pads,of course.

Whisper this quietly but he was my favourite player when I was a kid , even more than Stan! It was Daves fault that still to this day I shout out "get it wide", "wing , wing" and my all time favourite "wing it , wing it". Loved to watch him play!!

...and then every now and then the feeling was rekindled with Leighton James but more in hope than reality. Good player that Leighton James was nobody has come near to DT for us on either wing.

He would have beaten most fullbacks,playing with his dog.

If at first you dont succeed, pack up and f**k off home.

Just a wonderful player every so called winger after him could not lace his boots.
Just the best

He is right about Sterling, can't cross a ball.

I can still see Dave Thomas in my minds eye away at Derby ripping them a new one.
Nice sunny day, socks round his ankles, legging it down the wing time and again.

What a player, not quite a 'Stan' in my opinion, but up there with Francis, Gillard, and, an on his day McClintock!

AON - one of the weirdest opinions I've ever heard expressed was a former boss who absolute went off on one about guide dogs, saying he was morally opposed to them and they were basically slavery.

I think they're pretty neat myself

Guide Dogs For the Blind are one of five charities that I support. Good luck to Dave and his trusty lab. DT was close to being my favourite all time player. Just edged out for that accolade by Stan. What a player. What a winger!

There aint half been some clever bastards.

Imagine my dissapointment at not seeing some holiday snaps of AKUTR's Dave taking a well earned break on some sunny Spanish Island.

Still, an interesting read, so thanks for posting.
