David Smith was a cracking winger on his day

...also notice HR half empty v Man Utd!

Yes good that - sort of dont see many headers like that - these days - also more likely to have 10 players behind the ball - but nice open play - bit like the Gillingham game

The power he used to generate with accuracy from a header was great.
I used to love it when he would chest a goal kick from oggy!!!
That was ridiculous control

How much would Regis have been worth today as he would be perfect as the lone striker, not so sure on the love in for Smith though from what I remember after a good start he spent most of his career passing it back to the full back.

Half decent player who failed to live up to his early potential...When he 1st broke into the team he used to take players on and beat them for fun...seemed to forget how to do that though once he became a regular.

No he wasn't. He really wasn't. Most of our goals involved him (and we scored fewer than everyone else) so he looks great on a highlights reel. In actuality he was very timid (after being kicked up in the air by Charlton's John Humphrey in his first season) and frequently failed to beat his man and misplaced cross after cross after cross
