Smithy

[Scum-Triumphant]

I’ll have a pint of whatever Michael Smith has been drinking. He played in every position last night.
It was like there was 5 of him on the pitch.
Despite the ref giving fouls whenever he touched anyone and him not having a clear cut chance himself. He made the goal, dropped deep to create space behind for the wingers and Vas and seemed to spend a lot of the second half helping out in both full back positions.
He won’t bend screamers into the top corner or dance around a couple of defenders before megging the keeper. But he is definitely ***** to us, plays every minute and gets on with it.
On reflection, my man of the match for last night.

He is our current Alex Revell. Absolute key player to how we set up as a team, also proved his worth in the Championship last season. Deserves a pay rise.

Better than Revs...

I can't warm to smithy. He works hard all game. He gets battered most games. He wins 90% of headers. N chips in with a few goals.
Though I just feel there's sumat missing. I guess when you look at Moore, fern, Lee, revell frecks, stancliffe ect they were legends at rufc. Not sure smith will ever reach that level

[welovebooth]

Should be starting every game

I personally think Smith is ten times the player Revell ever was. If it wasn't for THAT goal I wouldn't put Revell anywhere near the legend status. I always thought he was massively overrated by a large section of our fans.

Agree totally. And if anyone is unable to warm to Smith after he runs his blood to water every match it isn't Smithy who has "summat missing".

Sht. I forgot about not being able to have a opinion opposite to everyone else. I guess your right. "I must have sumat missing"
CAM. Do me a favour and remove my post please. I hate to rock the boat.
@ brin. Wembley goal overshadowed revs great away goal Vs preston. (Just like the 3 vass scored over xmas.) I can think of several others though non as good as wembley goal

Not as good as one of my all time favs Dave Gwyther but I like him.

Just my opinion but I never liked him. Always preferred Carl Gilbert and Dick Habbin, but I was young then and easily swayed by hairstyles
