Well done Tom, well deserved. Is he our first home grown (Youth team scholar) international to achieve a cap whilst still with us since Neil Slatter? (Gareth Taylor was ex-Southampton youth). Not really because Tom was at Cardiff |

Not reall because Tom was at Cardiff I thought Tom was released as a 16 year old and then joined our Youth Team. |

Pleased for the lad. Just hope it wakes him up when playing for us.

Congratulations tom, hopefully that should give him a boost. Sorry to be negative but last minute you want your back line to keep their shape, yet he got dragged out of position and the ball went into the gap he vacated... There were a lot of bodies around to have defended that better, can't just hold shape forever without engaging the man with the ball. Never nice when a goal comes from your side, but hardly a howler. |

Well done Tom. Hope there are more to come

Tom played many times for our youth team.
90% one of our own.
All opinions to one side, well done Tom.
A great honour and achievement for you.....and the club.
It's not as if we can boast many full internationals representing
a Home country whilst they are still at our club.

Well done Tom .
He may be in line for a starting position by the time the euros come around again.

Well done Tom but you ain't playing for the gas Saturday Sounds a harsh but hopefully true in my opinion. Broadbent and Mayo deserve another go. |

Yeah i see what your saying , if we stick him in front of the back four it gives cover to the defence that theyve not really been getting this season when we play Sercombe and Lines in the same team. We can also push lines up a bit further so he’s more likely to create chances. |

A late well done Tom from me, been away so hence the delay.
After he played full back for Wales, perhaps that would be a good slot for him today, and maybe without the armband too?
What are the odds on TL going to Sunderland with Coleman there now?

What are the odds on TL going to Sunderland with Coleman there now? Good shout on the Sunderland thing. He obviously hasn’t done too bad in training when he’s been with the Wales squad as he keeps getting asked back. Coleman obviously thinks a lot of him, may be a good move for him to further his career. Would be sad to see him go, I just hope that if he does then we don’t lose him for * all. |
