According to a contact I have close to the Orient player he is STALLING on signing a new deal to see what other offers come along.

Rumours abound that we are one club sniffing round him.

Bound to be complete BUNKUM but has to have more legs than the Joey Barton rumour...

I would RUDDY love to sign Sean AND Kevin Thornton.

IF we could get him playing to his ability and keep him away form the booze then he would be a great signing, he would be great in the AM role

The same contact told me we were snooping round Jabo Ibehre about a fortnight before Knight went public with our interest a while back so you never know...

I have been advocating signing him for the whole of last season but we must keep him away from the Coca Cola (Coke!). I would rather sign him than his brother Kevin.

MM was going to sign him when he was manager and the story broke about him MM and DK in Topolino when his agent told him to walk away and not sign.

Thornton just keeps dropping lower and lower down the leagues- clearly has ability but the suggestion is that his fitness and/or attitude aren't there.

The new Kevin McLeod?

Thornton has got a LOT of ability BUT-

He is an idiot:

- Trained with Sunderland while in contract with Tranmere ( told Tranmere a relative had died)

- Had drinking problem at Donny, Sunderland and at Orient

Im afraid he would turn out like another O'Calloghan for you

He wasn't one of the Sunderland players in that, ahem, "home-movie", that accidentally ended up on YouTube, was he?
