Mansfield Town youngster Jack Thomas is attracting a lot of attention from a number of Championship sides, and FLW understands that Sheffield Wednesday and Wolves are among those clubs.

Groundhopping Owl Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Wiki says he's a central midfielder but never heard of him personally. I assume we'd loan him straight back out again as he wouldn't break into our first team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do know jack is an alternative name for John don't you? Or it always used to be. Johns were often nicknamed jack. In recent years jack seems to be a name in its own right.
