Quote lefty goldblatt="lefty goldblatt"...Thomas is a totally different case. Crusaders needed a marquee signing. Thomas (from what little I know of the 3 point code) had acheived virtually all that was capable to him. He had nothing to prove. He'd just come out of the closet, and (if you excuse the expression) wanted to keep his head down. He obviously wanted to stay in sport, but not get the attention. What better for him to do, than join a club with little support, in a sport that gets scant day-to-day coverage in the national media...'"
...and ends up getting a Hollywood movie made about him starring Mickey Rourke. And appearing on the Ellen DeGeneres show. And getting mentioned everytime homophobia in sport is talked about. He's hardly been forgotten about!
