Thompson was pictured at Moore’s first training session with the players this afternoon.
“Both men I know really, really well,” Moore told The Star. “As the chairman amplified, we thank them for the tremendous work that they’ve done here.

“It’s important both men keep that information going between the first team and the academy.”
