On 21 November 2014, Thompson signed on a month's loan with Southern League club Truro City, having previously been loaned to Bideford earlier in the 2014–15 season. He made his debut as a substitute in Truro's 2–1 win at Dunstable Town on 22 November.[5] On his return to Torquay, he was released at the end of his contract at the beginning of January 2015.[6]
