Thomas signs Pompey deal

Portsmouth have revealed that they have signed on-loan winger Jerome Thomas on a permanent basis from Charlton Athletic.
Thomas, 25, joined Pompey on loan last week and made his debut in Sunday's 4-0 defeat at Chelsea.
But Pompey have decided to make the move into a permanent transfer after agreeing an undisclosed fee with the Championship side.
Thomas has agreed a one-year contract at Fratton Park.
"It's a simple conversion from a loan deal to a permanent contract for a year," revealed chief executive Peter Storrie.
"It frees up a loan space for us.
"Jerome could have been recalled by Charlton in January under the terms of his loan, but that's no longer a factor now his deal has been made permanent."
