Think Thompson was injured a fair bit at Swindon....

....sadly some players always are. Just v bad luck. However definitely something to be said for buying players who do have good appearance records. I remember Steve Bruce was like that - fantastic appearance stats for Gillingham, Ourselves and then Man Utd.
