irobinson 1,403 Posted February 9 Just reading about Mickey Thomas - who is just about to start treatment for stomach cancer i was interested to read that he appeared 9 times for us on loan. Totally forgot about that. I seem to recall - it was a hard times for us - and he did offer us experience and was fully committed All the best to him, any other recollections of him - playing for Derby? 2 SKRam and 86 points reacted to this Share this post Link to post
GangwayD 14 Posted February 9 I remember being on the Colombo terrace one Wednesday night game. Can’t remember if Micky started or came on as sub but he did a lung busting run beat a couple of players and blazed over from the angle. The chant went up ... ”Micky, gissa a wave, Micky, Micky, gissa wave” and he immediately gave us the thumbs up. Some fruit loop at the back of the terrace went into a rant over this for about 5 minutes shouting, probably at himself “We said a clucking wave Micky you thick Welsh ....” When they show his goal for Wrexham against Arsenal in the FA Cup I always think back to his loan period to us and that incident. Hope he’s okay, Regards Gangway D from the terrace 1 irobinson reacted to this Share this post Link to post
Monkeytennis12345 188 Posted February 10 I'd also totally forgotten he'd come to us, however, from somewhere in my old bald head, I can remember him warming up during our promotion season from DIV3. That's it. Nothing else. Let's hope he gets through this. A character on and off the pitch. Share this post Link to post
Inglorius 1,323 Posted February 10 Wish him a speedy recovery hopefully he'll have some of his counterfeited money stashed away to pay for private treatment 1 Monkeytennis12345 reacted to this Share this post Link to post
