Tom Cruise the ex Arsenal player has signed today, I personally know he's family and he is a decent lad, it could be a very good signing he has played for Arsenal in the champions league but was injured for the whole of last season.

Most of them have been done - he actually had a 2-week trial for New England back in february, so I got most of the gags out the way then

Lingy being a bit of a 'maverick'
I too remember him playing against us for Carlisle in the cup. Was a bit shaky but that was a couple of years ago. Could prove to be a really decent signing. Happy with this one.

I see from the photo on the OS that, unlike the other Tom Cruise, this one doesn't have a beard.

He was always destined to sign for us, I remember him slipping in that FA cup game to allow us to score the only goal!
