I remember going to Colchester one year and we had recently signed this Smith from Scotland. During the game he came on as a substitute and not long after he was subbed. He was shocking.. But in a previous game at Bournemouth we were 3 down just before half time. Burgess grabbed a goal back just before the break. We went on to draw 3 -3 with Smith getting a late equaliser...
