Looks like Harry has returned to the club injured after failing to impress in the SPL (Sunday Pub League).
Not a massive surprise, not sure where it leaves him. A big preseason ahead.

I guess he was in good company, Edmondson and Miller failed to impress in SPL before we signed them on loan.

Never ever rated the guy one bit.
Me neither. How long's he got left on his contract?

Still 1 year left on his contract. I reckon he might be able to do something for us next year if we end up in Div 2 - which looks likely at time of writing! Don’t get me wrong, he ain’t gonna be our 20 goal / year striker but if JB can get him motivated and hungry I reckon he could scare quite a few division 4 defences?!

Smith is not a footballer but he could do a job at the moment

Smith IS a footballer, he just isn't a target man as Curle insisted on playing him as. It's a real shame he was loaned out before Brady took over as I think he'd be a useful addition to our current side.

What are his strengths? Has a touch like a brick wall.

Disagree. Get the ball into his feet and you'll see a different player.

It's good that you know better than the Aberdeen manager!

I've no interest in getting into a debate with anyone on this. It's subjective; I have my opinion and others have their's. And I presume you mean Motherwell.

Yes and he wouldn't need a ladder either.

Yes sorry, mean Motherwell. Getting mixed up with that other big donkey that returned to Aberdeen! Opinions are fine...your post was trying to pass it off that you know... football expert extraordinaire, like a few others on here! In my opinion, Smith isn't capable of doing anything with the ball (as you allude to) but more a target man...who can't hit the target!

Smith is definitely not a target man and I agree he's not too bad with the ball at his feet, but I don't see his role in any team. He's too tall and not quick enough to be a fox-in-the-box type forward. Without aerial power or dominant physical presence for hold up play, neither of which he has, where could he play - on the wing like Alex Revell once did?

I believe Harry Smith could do a good job for us in Lg 2. If he can stay fit and motivated he has it in him to be a real force at that level. Hope it is with us - and that he doesn't come back and haunt us, like another big front man did today.

You do make some Bottom Feeder obnoxious comments. Discuss?

There's been quite a few players that have been woeful, gone out on loan and come back with great success. JJOT anyone?

What’s changed in a year? He was woeful in league 2 less than 12 months ago...
