If that is true, Wow!

Its like our team has been transformed into real quality now. Price and Smith within a week!

It says something about in search of first team Football, but will he even have that at City?

:D

[tigermatty]

awesome, just what we need i think, if he is still reproducing the same form as when he left us we will really have a shot this year.

[Neil]

It's probably best to wait and hear things from this end before we get carried away about stories on other websites...

[chris]

is it true then!what a big signing that will be

[tigermatty]

I'm gonna take a risk and assume we have signed him, if I'm wrong then so be it. Get innnnnnnnnn!!

[Neil]

[ItmustbeCity]

If true then this is fantastic news :thumbsup:

Shelley (for it is he)I'm off to watch Educating Rita to see if I can work out what he just wrote....

[Dr Wart Hoover]

yeeeeeesssss!!!!!

[Pablo]

Wow Ryan Harley, he used to be my right-back on Champ Man for City, he was there through all my glory years...

I mean, awesome news about Smithy, that's a quality signing.

[Clifty]

with Lee down the right and Price down the left and Welshy and Pitcher up front we will rip teams to shreds!!

[Clifty]

oh and our penalty tally will also increase because Smithy is amazing at winning penalties!!

[chris]

theres still nothing official on the signing so mayb not happening,i hope it does

[darrenb]

I have a feeling that this could well be true and will be a superb signing if it is confirmed.

We had a great squad to start with this season and the signings of Smith and Price will give us that width that we have been missing in a couple of games this season :thumbsup:

[Mike]

Tim has asked me to confirm that discussions with Lee are well advanced, but to stress that no deal has yet been finalised. We will let you know as soon as it has.

MY! It's going to be HOT in the cannibal pot tonight.

[Joe]

Hurry up and confirm please! I want to know before I go on holiday in an hour!

[city supporter]

Great News.......

Kingo, if this happens I will sponsor Lee as well.

[chris]

just got the citizen there is a picture and headline smith return intrests city its gotta be true

[city supporter]

Let's make sure that we give Lee a Big Welcome. He has always been a City Lad and can be the icing on the cake as far as our dreams go this season.

[Neil]

Tim has asked me to confirm that discussions with Lee are well advanced, but to stress that no deal has yet been finalised. We will let you know as soon as it has.I think that the Weston website, and it was the website (not the forum) was out of order for releasing that he was signing for us. It's their business if they're saying that he's released but it's ours to say that he's signed.

It could throw a spanner in the works :tosser:

[SHANDY LOVE MACHINE]

Mike - can you pass on to Tim the folllowing. As a dealbreaker I am willing to share with Lee my collection of toenail clippings, the oldest of which are over 20 years old (I used to eat them before then).

[chris]

cheers 4 that info

[Graham]

I agree with Neil, dont count your chickens yet, there are many players which have been talking to Tim, not all have signed, although it would give us additional options. Can we afford him without letting anyone go as we have a good depth of experience in the squad and this can-not be cheap

[DaveH]

cheers 4 that info

Chris,

Is that meant for Yate Jr or Shandy and his toe nail clippings?? :D

[Neil]

I copied Shandy's "Davenports Diary" on TR for reference and he used a quote on there about collecting toenail clippings. Some BBC researcher found it on google and emailed me asking if she could profile *me* for a show that they were planning about unusual hobbies....

[SHANDY LOVE MACHINE]

I agree with Neil, dont count your chickens yet


I haven't got any

[yates jr]

Nor ave I :(

[Mike]

A press release has just been released at

[SHANDY LOVE MACHINE]

I think I'm going to cry I'm so happy. Where do I post my toeclippings to?

[Neil]

:thumbsup:

[yates jr]

Smithy looks happy :D

[Woody]

Great stuff!! :thumbsup:

[darrenb]

Two superb signings - even more gutted that I am missing the game on Saturday now :brickwall:

[martin]

Excellent news. Pace and width down both flanks. Very Impressed with Jamie Price so far, think he could be a star player for us this season.

[chris]

what news that is quality :thumbsup:

[Exiled]

Ball players
Give the BIG BOOT the boot!

[chris]

There's Dedication.......:notworthy:

[ItmustbeCity]

Excellent news about Smithy, now lets start getting those wins and moving up the table :D

[chris]

yeah well said we now have a squad that is ready 2 win the league lets give the players il strong support :thumbsup:

[chris]

what did the rest of the fans think of smithys return then

[Neil]

He added some pace and threat down the wing but there wasn't any finished product yesterday. I'd like to think that with both Welshy and Jack ahead of him he'll know that his better option is to get to the touchline and cross rather than to cut inside and shoot.

[chris]

in my opinion he put some decent balls in the box 2nd half,but lets 4get the game yesterday as we need 2 win at yate come on we need a CUP RUN

[Dommotyger]

Was by far the best player on the park and made some great runs but sometimes its best to pass or cross than to keep the ball and up losing it although he did get some good balls in from what i can remember!

Keep it up Smithy!

[SHANDY LOVE MACHINE]

agree with most comments. Lee is most dangerous when he is running at people, sucking in others players as he gets past the first man. This creates space for other players. My only criticism of Lee on Saturday would be that he held on to the ball too long and didn't always make use of the space he created for others, before getting crowded out. Learning when to pass the ball is an art in itself but one that unleashes bags of goals and plaudits

[chris]

yeah maybe he was trying to hard but we need to give the ball to both flanks alot more,i hope we can beat yate im confident.
