Interesting that Gary Johnson sees promise in T.Smith. He's one of the better judges.

This is the problem with modern social media..... once upon a time I could have happily spent the close season, not caring a fig about the inevitability of what will follow when we play them. Tozer ffs, 3 goals last season, 66.6% v STFC  I'd expect them to pick up Revell by August.

I think Williams, Flitcroft and Brown have all seen something in Smith, they have just not been able to handle him on a personal level for whatever reason.

Revell is the type of signing we could have done with as target man this season TBH. I do hope that no matter what we sign one big lump of a centre forward who can play target man in the Akinfenwa/Hylton style. If he wasn't such a prick and fallen out with Power and Brown then Ranger would fit that perfectly.

Good move for him. We'll soon see if he was the second coming of Micky Hazard or Miles Storey... well said. Good luck to him, now he has a proper chance to succeed or fail

A decent move for him. He should get some 1st team football there, helping him develop for his career with Supermarine.

To be fair I'd be happy for the same club to keep picking up our exes, it beats having them scattered all over the place. I'd sooner write off 2 games than about a dozen.

According to the grapevine Michael Timlin offered a contract by Stevenage.

Its not like he is a 32 year old with a successful career behind him and the ego that that justifies, thus any failings in his career based on non-footballing matters can really only be laid at one door....

Many very promising youngsters have ruined their own careers with not having the best advice from close to them or by having an over inflated self opinion of themselves. Hes still young and could easily get better, he certainly possesses a modicum of talent.

About his level, similar outcry when he left as Tom Smith...... shocked he survived as long in the league as he did as he had a reasonable left foot but not a lot else.

Kennedy left under Di Canio. Nowhere near as many people cared back then like people did with Storey and Smith.
