He’s got a lot of head problems which isn’t at all nice, I think he could do a job next season.
I had a quick glance at this and thought he'd got head lice

I remember last year when someone asked on Facebook if they could do a family discount for the "Face in the crowd" cutouts as she couldn't afford one for each of her kids. Smith replied and offered to pay for them for her.
That sort of thing goes a long way with me - that's the mark of a fundamentally good person. He's not a Premier league fancy dan splashing around the cash, he's a fairly modestly paid League 2 player stumping up 150 quid, which would be a decent chunk out of his pay. I've been on his side ever since that, especially as I think there's a really good player in him (if you forget that he's a giant and pass the ball to his feet instead of his head!)

Agreed with the above...if you play him then you have to play to his strengths....and they were not as a lone striker chasing balls hoofed over the top for him to run on to ala Curle.
He would do well in the classic "big guy little guy" striking partnership.
He's an asset I believe we'd be better off keeping than getting rid of.

I genuinely wouldn’t be surprised if Harry Smith ended up scoring 15+ league goals for a div 2 club. When he turns up and given the right service he can play, I’ve always said it.

He might work with Rose who's better in the air than he should be. Pace or lack of it let's them down though.

We're beginning to clutch at straws. Smith and Rose up front would be one of the easiest combination of forwards to mark. Slow and inefficient with very little flair. 15 to 20 goals tops in a full league season playing together.

I was thinking more of a Jamie Forrester type of player to play alongside Smith……Rose doesn’t fit the bill!

I like Harry Smith could easily come good if given some reasonable service. He can head the ball as proved at Stevenage; like the heavily loaded Lancaster Bomber sometimes difficult to get of the ground!

The trouble is he hasn’t turned up for 2 years… Not sure why we should keep him for a 3rd just in case this is the year he decides to turn up? Get shot of him, stealing a living. Also offer BAS to the closest Sunday league team for free.

All of BAS's highlights showed him finishing crosses and cut backs delivered into the box, we might see a different player with genuine wingers at a lower level.
I also think both Rose and Smith have what it takes to score 15 goals in league 2

That highlights reel is mainly playing U23’s football, which I would say is not that physically demanding. BAS so far has been awful and what’s worse is he has a bit of an attitude problem.

Agreed - only sell if the offer is good enough.

Do we even need another midfielder? Assuming we play a back 4 and 2 wide men with 1 striker being supported by Flores ( in the advanced Watson role) that leaves 2 midfield places available. We already have Lewis, Sowerby, McWilliams, Pollock and Cross fighting for 2 places and I'm not including Hoskins as a midfielder. I think we have a greater need for new signings in defense and a quality striker.
