I have it on VERY good authority that we're negotiating to sign Ryan Smith from Milwall, for a fee of around 75k.

Anybody know anything about him?

Pacy left footed winger, used to play for Arsenal who sold him to Derby for a reasonable fee, they sold him on when they went up. My Millwall mate rated him highly when they initially had him on loan but has not done so well since signing permanently. Didn't he break his jaw against us, or was that someone else? ???

Also, Millwall payed £150k for him last summer, which would make me wonder why they'd supposedly sell him for half that now.

In fairness, the 'source' only estimated the 75k figure. Maybe Tony Bloom is willing to get his cheque book out big time this summer?

However, he's not played that many games and has apparently struggled to settle in there, so perhaps the 75k figure is reasonably accurate?

They've also changed managers so may be looking to move players on.

Sounds like one of those wide, pacey players that Adams wanted for our midfield, perhaps being left-footed he would play on the left?

How long has it been since we've had a proper winger! Frutos was decent, shame he never really got a game with Wilkins...saw him at West Ham thought he had a good go of it!

Always pleased with new signings but another that wouldnt really excite me. Faith in Adams and all that but I'd love us to get in someone who really is proven to be the business.

This fella is yet to do it despite having a chance in our league.

We'll see
