Title: Phil Smith
Post by: STFCere on Sunday, April 22, 2007, 22:23:40
not sure if this has been mentioned yet, but what a CRACKING SAVE! I never thought he would get to that but he just managed to get it round the post in the second half.

Brezovan or Smith? hmmm..thats not a decision i'd like to make!

Both superb players and great guys. long may they stay at the club   :mrgreen:

Brezovan every time, he has a presence not seen by other keepers in this league or the one above......claims basically every cross that comes near him and makes saves look easy as his reach is immense.....especially so with him being 8 inches taller than Smith.

Smith is on fire at the moment, what a great goalie he has turned out to be. His confidence has rocketed.

Best goalkeeping scenario since Digby and Hammond. Strength in depth - love it. 8)

Adcock was the striker to benefit from memory! Shaun Taylor scored 2 at the right end and an OG. Mickey Hazard had a goal disallowed that would have been goal of the season.

...and all beamed live on central, which they had over the road but we had htv. brilliant.

Hammond wasn't blameless for taylor's og if I remember rightly - failing to call for one that he should've had no problem. But that aside, he was a decent 'keeper.

Smith's solid and consistent, whcih at any other time in the last 7 or 8 years would have him as a shoe-in - Brezovan could be exceptional. Too tough for me to call....

Always remember Nicky Hammond in a 0-0 draw away at Newcastle in the season we got promoted to the Premiership (92-3). In my opinion it was his best ever game for us - they threw everything at us it seemed, but he was unbeatable that day.

Maybe time has glossed the memories - but for me that was an experience to see, despite the fact that in some other games he hardly covered himself in glory!

He's now director of football at the plastics up the M4, earning far more then he ever did playing and doing very well for himself

Hammond away at west ham (92) , and home to barnsley(92) won us the game, but he was mainly turd.
I think brezovan, but smith has been good
