New signing Jake Thomson comes straight into contention for a home debut when Torquay United host Northampton Town at Plainmoor tomorrow (3pm).

Gulls manager Paul Buckle brought the winger in on a month's loan from Southampton earlier this week, and he must now decide whether to give 20-year-old Thomson a starting spot in the League Two clash against the Cobblers.

"It's important to bring someone in who can come and make an impact, and the only way I can do that is by playing him," said Buckle.

"We're not bringing anybody in to develop them at this point in time, we're bringing them in to play and certainly Jake is coming here with the intention of playing for us."
