I have the opposite experience. Dave is easily recognisable in his dapper suit as he makes his way across the pitch from the Main to the Upper a few minutes before kick off. Doesn't look like he's put a pound on since his playing days. I've still got a mug from the 1998 double Wembley season with a photo of Danny Coyne, Dave, Livvo and Macca on it.

I recently stayed in a holiday home owned by a former Town player. The pool guy said what a pleasant guy the owner was and also his friend, and former team mate, Dave Smith. That anecdote partially made up for having to miss the Rochdale and Sutton games.


Him and KB are big mates

Sad to see Dave go but yet another legacy of the previous regime. I understand that another, perhaps less surprising, change has also taken place.

My son booked the place before Covid/ lockdowns etc. KB was a gent and honoured the booking at the original price even though he now only lets it to family and friends. August way too hot for me but I'd go back early Spring for the great walking and flowers and return for the Wembley final.

Always remember the goal he scored in Sept 1998 at Birmingham straight from a a corner, mind you he missed a penalty at Q.P.R.

Allegedly is the first word to use, so go on and put us in the picture of the apparent situation that may or may not be true.


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

Info released 6 Sept and no longer chronology on the official Town website.  Older posts survive.  
Am I just old and simplistic expecting post to go in chronological order or is there something I’m missing ?

I remember interviewing Dave Smith for Mariners Player (World) when he began this commercial role in 2003.

Almost 20 years later I walked past him at Blundell Park and he said 'Hi Rich' as if he'd seen me every day. Recognised my face (despite the greying hair!) and remembered my name.

Think I played against him in some five-a-side league back in 2004, but I doubt he'd have remembered me for my skill! Lack of, maybe.
