After missing out on the "not good enough" Michael Dobson i'd imagine Thorman is a more than adequate addition

Wigan were also interested in Dobson and said that they offered a "chocolate bar" and Rovers offered him "the factory". Like us, Wigan couldn't accomodate Dobson and stay under the salary cap.

Thorman is a decent player but not a world beater - He has not imposed himslef in recent games but when he does i think he makes a big difference on the team - I still think we need a world class 7 next season; Thorman will be good enough to get in the play-offs but lacks the killer edge to get us all the way to Old Trafford

You mean we put our money where our mouth is and got the player in we wanted and needed. Stupid business that

Dont believe at all you was spending at the full cap last season!

Sure I remember you signing someone after losing out on Dobson.

What Dobson wanted and Rovers were in a position to pay (i.e. the "whole factory" that Noble referred to, as opposed to the "chocolate bar"icon_wink.gif would have taken us over.

You assume

We had a lot of injuries last season. We had numerous players in on loan that we wouldn't have expected to have needed to pay for when planning the salary cap spend - just off the top of my head, Danny Williams, Jodie Broughton and Adel Fellous, plus we brought in Jamie Thackray fairly early on. Don't forget we were paying a fair wedge for Adam Dykes, Matt Sing, Garreth Carvell as well. We had some money left under the cap, but not enough for Dobson's "chocolate factory" level of wage demands.

But then again we don't know what he gets payed

i wonder if dykes has had his injury sorted out yet. i'd have him back in a flash if i knew he would be fully fit.

you are peter sharpe and i claim my £5.

Thorman has not impressed me

ok i think he's rubbish

Thormans rubbish, has anyone told him you can kick up field and not just left and right? And if possible kick to your own players and not the opposing teams.

More than Thorman, about £130k pa

thorman was embarrasing on sunday he better get his act together on friday if hes picked his kicking into touch is appalling needs to practice ALOT!!
