Timeline

1954

Michael Reginald Thomas (born 7 July 1954) is a Welsh former footballer who played as a winger.

At club level, he played for Wrexham, Manchester United, Everton, Brighton & Hove Albion, Stoke City, Chelsea, West Bromwich Albion, Derby County, Shrewsbury Town and Leeds United.

As a Welsh international, he made 51 appearances and scored four goals.

1960

Local factory Quinton Hazell bought him a pair of boots when he was at school in the mid-1960s, and at the age of 13 Thomas was a success as left wing on the factory's Conwy League men's team.

By 15, he and friend Joey Jones were taken on by Wrexham.

1970

Thomas was born in Mochdre, Conwy, Wales, and was among a group of notable footballers to come out of North West Wales during the 1970s and 1980s.

1971

Though the first two years were spent cleaning boots, the changing rooms and the whole stadium, Thomas made his first-team debut in the 1971–72 season, when still only 17.

1974

Under manager John Neal he helped Wrexham establish their giant-killing reputation by reaching the quarter finals of the FA Cup in 1974 and the quarter finals of the European Cup Winners' Cup in 1976, when they lost to the eventual winners, Anderlecht of Belgium.

1977

After helping Wrexham storm to the Third Division title in 1977–78, Thomas crossed the border to England and joined Manchester United.

1978

Thomas began his career with local side Wrexham where he spent eight seasons and earned a move to Manchester United in 1978.

1979

He played 110 games and scored 15 goals for the Red Devils, collecting an FA Cup runners-up medal in 1979.

1981

He then moved to Everton in August 1981 but lasted just three months at Everton, his contract terminated by manager Howard Kendall in the autumn of 1981 after he refused to play in the reserves.

He moved to Brighton & Hove Albion where he saw out the 1981–82 season but his wife struggled to settle in Brighton and so he moved on again this time to Stoke City for a fee of £200,000.

1982

After three seasons at Old Trafford, Thomas had short spells at Everton and Brighton & Hove Albion before joining Stoke City in August 1982.

He instantly became a favourite at the Victoria Ground and top-scored in 1982–83 with 12 goals coming from left wing and he won the player of the year award.

1983

After one and a half seasons at the Victoria Ground, he moved on to Chelsea, with whom he helped gain promotion in 1983–84.

He then played for West Bromwich Albion and Derby County and also spent two years in the United States playing indoor football for Wichita Wings.

In the summer of 1983 manager Richie Barker decided to alter his style of play to the long ball game.

Thomas made an immediate impact, scoring twice on his debut and helping the club become Second Division champions in 1983–84.

1984

This decision did not go down well with the players and most of them signalled their intent to leave and Thomas left in January 1984, after scoring three goals in 21 matches in 1983–84.

He joined promotion-chasing Chelsea in January 1984, signed by the manager who had given him his debut at Wrexham, John Neal.

1985

He was sold to West Bromwich Albion in 1985 for £100,000 where he played 28 times scoring once and also had a short loan spell at Derby County.

1986

In 1986 Thomas moved to the United States where he lent his skills to the Wichita Wings in the Major Indoor Soccer League.

1988

He moved back to England in 1988 to play for Shrewsbury Town and Leeds United before making returns to Stoke City and Wrexham.

1989

He could do little to prevent Alan Ball's Stoke suffering relegation in 1989–90 but at the age of 36 he played in 44 matches in 1990–91 and won the player of the year award again as Stoke failed to mount a promotion challenge.

1990

1991

He was released at the end of the season by Lou Macari and returned to Wrexham in 1991, where in the memorable FA Cup defeat of Arsenal in January 1992, 37-year-old Thomas scored the equalising goal from a free kick.

1992

In August 1992, Thomas was attacked by two men in a country lane at Dyserth, Clwyd.

He was sitting in his Volkswagen with a 29-year-old woman, when his window was smashed and he was assaulted with a hammer and a screwdriver.

Thomas was admitted to hospital with 15 stab wounds to his left buttock.

1993

North Wales Police arrested him in 1993 and following a conviction he was sentenced to 18 months in jail.

1994

He joined Welsh League side Porthmadog in 1994 under the management of former Wales international teammate Ian Edwards.

When Edwards was sacked Thomas took over as a player-manager however in his three months in charge the side only picked up one point and Thomas decided to leave.

Thomas gained 51 caps for Wales, and counts scoring a goal for Wales in their win over England as one of the most memorable moments of his career.

During his football career, Thomas became involved in a counterfeit currency scam, whereby he laundered the money through Wrexham's trainees.

1995

Thomas never played at senior level after his imprisonment, although he did continue playing for a while at non-league level with Porthmadog and Amlwch Town in Wales, until he finally retired from playing in 1995 at the age of 41.
