On 29 January 2013, he was released by the club, having made no first-team appearances.[5]

Clyde

Thomson went out on loan to Clyde in February 2011 to gain first-team experience until the end of the season,[6] making his debut on 15 February against Berwick Rangers.[7] In all he made five appearances for Clyde.

Raith Rovers

At the start of the 2011–12 season Thomson was once again sent out on loan by Hearts, this time to Scottish First Division team Raith Rovers. He made his debut as a substitute against Cowdenbeath in the Challenge Cup on 23 July 2011.[8] The following week, he scored his first goal for the club, against Montrose in the Scottish League Cup.[9] His last game came on 26 December against Ayr United,[10] and on 5 January 2012 his loan expired and he returned to Hearts.[11]
