The Imps have lost both Mo Fofana and Gary Mills to injury over the festive period and City boss David Holdsworth has wasted no time in bringing in Thompson to shore up the middle.

Thomson, 23, heads to Sincil Bank from the Welsh side on a one-month loan deal with a view to a two month extension.

He is still young too...ah wonder what is his career plan though, is he just good enough to be where he is, or will a good break see him make progress in a higher league?

The Imps. really??

[Deeks]

Maybe he needs to come back and play with TT for the GC. It may revive his career.

Jake Thomson wants to catapult Lincoln City back towards the Blue Square Bet Premier play-off race – at the expense of Newport County's title rivals.

The Imps face four promotion contenders over the next three weeks as the race for promotion to the Football League heats up.

Lincoln begin their tough run of fixtures on Saturday when they host Thomson's parent clubNewport.

Conditions of his loan prevent him from playing against his team-mates, but he will be eligible for games against Luton, Forest Green Rovers and Wrexham.
