"It's good to be here and I'm looking forward to getting started," said Alex Gorrin.

"I will bring experience, energy and leadership to the group. Hopefully I can contribute and help the club achieve the goal of pushing up the table."

Manager Troy Deeney added: "Alex will bring us real quality, professionalism and know-how. We've had him in on trial this season - and even just in that week, you could see what he could add to the group.

"He's a physical presence, but also really good technically. He can play one or two touch and he's got a great range of passing too.

"He will also add serious value to Harvey Bunker and Alfie Bendle. To have Alex as a mentor to two exciting young players will be a great thing."

We are delighted to announce the signing of Dominic Thompson on loan from @BlackpoolFC until the end of the season.📝

Welcome to Rovers, Dom!🤝#WeAreFGR💚

"It's great to be here. I'm hoping to get a lot of games under my belt and to have a big impact on this team," Thompson told the club website.

"I've spoken to the gaffer a couple of times and we had some great chats. He's one of the biggest influences in me making this move.

"He's explained how he sees my role and he wants me to express myself and use my athleticism and quality on the ball."

Troy Deeney added: "We are really, really lucky to have Dom. He's Championship quality. He's shown a real desire and commitment to come here as he had offers from League One clubs and Scottish Prem sides.

"We're really excited to have him and a huge thanks to Blackpool for making it happen."
