In August 2007, Thomas signed for Southampton in a £1.2 million deal. Accorfing to Cotterill, there had been several lower offers, but “when it hit £1.2million it was a time we decided to sell”.

He then scored with a 20 yd (18 m) half-volley in a 2–1 FA Cup victory over Ipswich Town.

The race was ultimately won by Cotterill who was in charge of Burnley in the aftermath of Cotterill went to the player’s home in Florida to convince him to join the club. He scored his first goal and which turned out to be sole goals in the game for Burnley in the match against Coventry City on 13 August 2005.
