Title: Smith & Heywood to Shity Post by: Dazzza on Saturday, April 16, 2005, 15:43:31 From the WDP:
Quote Bristol City have also been linked with a move for Swindon's out-of-contract defender Matt Heywood, and manager Brian Tinnion refused to rule out a move for the duo. "I won't be discussing any players I am going to try and get in the summer until I have actually signed them, " said Tinnion. "I don't want to alert other people, I just want to get things done before anyone else knows. "I have a list of players I am interested in but I will keep it to myself for now. "Grant Smith is also one who is out of contract and if he is one (on the list) we will let you know when we sign him." and... Quote Grant Smith has said he wants to stay at Swindon Town despite attracting the interest of a host of rival clubs. The gifted Scottish midfielder is out of contract this summer and the Daily Press understands he is being tracked by Bristol City, Sheffield Wednesday and Rotherham, who are managed by former Swindon assistant manager Mick Harford. & Quote I might be getting offered a contract so I will just wait and see what it is because there have been big cuts on the financial side. But I'd like to stay, " said Smith. "A few people have enquired and asked to be kept informed of my situation but I cannot say who they are. "I've really enjoyed the last six months at Swindon and I'd like to carry that on. You have to think of your future, but if the club offer anywhere near what I'm thinking, then I'd like to stay." Could be a complete new line up the way things are going. Title: Smith & Heywood to Shity Post by: walrus on Saturday, April 16, 2005, 15:45:34 We should be giving Smith a pretty good contract as he's one of the only midfield players we have who can score, and does a good job.
Title: Smith & Heywood to Shity Post by: yeo on Saturday, April 16, 2005, 15:55:31 Should be but we wont match what City have to offer.
Title: Smith & Heywood to Shity Post by: Dazzza on Saturday, April 16, 2005, 16:26:11 Way things are going we could end up like Oldham last season struggling to put a team out.
I think it's going to be absolutely vital to get the likes of Reeves, Woan, Iffy and even Digby registered for next season. Hopefully it won't come to it but if needs be they can always make up squad numbers in a crisis. Title: Smith & Heywood to Shity Post by: Simon Pieman on Saturday, April 16, 2005, 16:27:04 i spent 10 minutes working out what WDP meant :|
Title: Smith & Heywood to Shity Post by: Papa Smurf on Saturday, April 16, 2005, 17:00:11 I'd be gutted if smith left, he's been one of our best players this year. I'm so pissed off right now, especially with shitty coming in and waving their money about :fu shitty! Really worried bout next year, likely to be no parkin, no smith, no heywood (played well recently) and no money to get decent replacments! even if we find a good bosman, im sure city will come in with a higher offer for wages and take him away from us braddley orr style!
Title: Smith & Heywood to Shity Post by: Panda Paws on Saturday, April 16, 2005, 17:08:31 Wouldn't worry what the WDP says too much, they clearly have a Swindon vendetta ...
Title: Smith & Heywood to Shity Post by: adje on Saturday, April 16, 2005, 17:12:08 Just cos Shitty are interested in Smiffy doesn't mean he's going to go there.Calm down everyone
Title: Smith & Heywood to Shity Post by: Piemonte on Saturday, April 16, 2005, 17:52:59 Fucking great.
We're turning into brizzle's feeder club Title: Smith & Heywood to Shity Post by: strooood on Saturday, April 16, 2005, 20:09:23 classic shit new manager syndrome. snap up whoever plays well against us
Title: Smith & Heywood to Shity Post by: sonicyouth on Saturday, April 16, 2005, 20:16:07 the WDP never write anything decent, do they?

I said (the oldham bit) ages and ages ago....sadly it seems to be coming true :cry: Title: Smith & Heywood to Shity Post by: Spencer_White on Sunday, April 17, 2005, 17:38:43 I think Smith, as well as Fallon has got some good support from the crowd and both want to stay and succeed.

Sadly support from the crowd does pay the bills.... Title: Smith & Heywood to Shity Post by: Panda Paws on Sunday, April 17, 2005, 22:01:49 Quote from: "sonicyouth" the WDP never write anything decent, do they? No. There's been an on-going row between the club and the paper, hence the shit stiring stories Title: Smith & Heywood to Shity Post by: Johno on Monday, April 18, 2005, 16:28:03 bugger off city.
they FINALLY! know that we have better players than them..took them a while. who will citys big waste of money signing be this season? :-))( Title: Smith & Heywood to Shity Post by: reeves4england on Monday, April 18, 2005, 17:35:54 We look at Bradley Orr, they take him away.
We look at Richie Wellens and they make a better offer (but he turned them down! :wink: ) Now they want Matt Heywood (who's been here for years) And they want Smith (who Tinnion has seen ONCE!) I think Tinnion is a shite manager to be honest. He has spent ridiculous amounts of money on players and they've moved as far backwards as us! Plus they haven't beaten us for nearly 2 years!!!!!!!!! Tinnion seems to look at Swindon and think, ooh, King's offered somethign for him. Maybe he's good? Or, Ooh, he had a good game, let's buy him! The amount of times he's played against Matt Heywood, and it takes him nearly a year as manager to show an interest! Title: Smith & Heywood to Shity Post by: Simon Pieman on Monday, April 18, 2005, 17:40:04 it makes me laugh that Tinnion said lack of resources were partly to blame for City's lacklustre season
Title: Smith & Heywood to Shity Post by: reeves4england on Monday, April 18, 2005, 21:19:04 They've spent more than ANY club in the division!
Even more than Sheff Weds who get double their attendances! Cheer up Brian Tinnion.... Title: Smith & Heywood to Shity Post by: Johno on Tuesday, April 19, 2005, 16:13:26 City spend way to much on players, i wish we had that amount of money to spend, imagine king with all that money. such as 250k on Luke Wilkshire. 250k on Lee Miller....
Title: Smith & Heywood to Shity Post by: STFCDude on Tuesday, April 19, 2005, 17:47:36 325k on Lee Miller actually!
