The point you appear to be missing completely is that clearly this young man is a direct replacement for Rowe-Turner and not Mark Ellis. I would have thought that was fairly obvious from the comments made by Martin Ling on the Official site? Obviously not though!
I suppose you are now going to tell us that young Cruise is no Rowe-Turner for sure!!!!! 8/

Martin Ling really is doing a fantastic job of building a 'Cocktail' of good signings. He's made 'All The Right Moves' in the transfer market without doing too much 'Risky Business'. All we needed was 'A Few Good Men' in the squad and much more quality in reserve so there wasn't so much 'Knight And Day' in terms of quality. One day, I have no doubt he'll be our defensive 'Rock of Ages' without coming with too much 'Collateral'.

what the heck were his parents thinking. By the time he was born, the film star was already well known, so why do that to the poor lad ??
anyway, another shrewd signing, well done ML, and welcome Tom.

Tom Cruise is a 'Legend'! He obviously likes 'The Colour of Money' down Plainmoor way. 'Far and Away' my favourite signing so far, purely for all the mileage we can get out of his name!
