What a fantastic signing. Don't think he put a foot wrong once he got to his preferred position, and at 20 years old is a great prospect.


Yep. Forgettable at right back. Unforgettable at centre half.

Thankfully, he’ll only be 3rd choice right back. Welcome back Andy.


I would think after previous displays comfortably 4th choice behind clifton, at least. Probably 5th behind Khan who's being played there in lg2 so can be used there in an emergency.

Think Smith’s as high up the pecking order as a RB as Giles Coke is for the match day squad!

I can’t blame him in wanting to play for a big club instead of Hull

Am  I right in saying that a season-long loanee cannot be called?

There is often a January recall option in them. Fingers crossed he's still here come May.

How do we keep Smudger for another year if the team and he play well?

Promotion, then he'll be rejoining a club higher in the leagues yet again.

Currently, his parent club will monitor his playing progress one league higher, with no backlash on their games, ie no risk, and value him by holding him on a 2 year + option term contract for a transfer fee later, as he is under 24 years old.

So, carry on the good work, Smudger, everyone benefits this way !!

Talking of player progress - how is Sam Bell of Bristol City doing nowadays?

Looked ok, perhaps needed feeding up a bit, but needed more game time here, then went back, literally to a right back playing position at Bristol in a few games when they had injuries.

Hurst and Doug could make something out of him, perhaps?

Young, fit, mobile, and not too expensive as a loan?

His club know we look after loanees.

I thought EFL season long loans were essentially one year contracts, unless it’s a keeper.
