Who would you rather have?
Thompson is going to give you a 7 out of 10 every week and even chip in with a few goals similar to Alex. wont exactly get you on the edge if your seat but his experience is key to the side.
or
Gillead who most weeks will score a 5/6 and for long periods won't be in the game but then every 10 games puts in a match winning performance.

Wycombe's No.7...
Kendal born Carlisle fan too. We tried to sign him a few years back when he was at Scunthorpe I think it was?
Always thought he'd do a job for us!

If we owned Alex it wouldn't even be a question, because eventually he will find some consistency and start putting in top performances every game, but by then he'll be playing at a higher level than us.
Not having that consistency is the reason he plays for us.

He's had a decent enough career round the lower leagues and we should've got him when we were in L1 but alas to no avail. Always thought he was a decent player.
