yellow hammer 0 Posted October 26, 2010 There I was, happily reading the piece in the Pinkun and noting Leon Barnett talking about ''we'' this and ''we'' that in terms of Norwich City (always a lovely sign that a player is feeling at home with us), when in the next sentence he says....“Smudger has come in and I don’t think Adam is going to get the left-back spot easily,” Smudger????....Anyone think Steven Smith (playing behind Simon Lappin) has picked up this nickname from our own one and only Smudge??

Pete Raven 276 Posted October 26, 2010 [quote user="pete_norw"]I was always lead to believe that everyone named Smith was own as Smudger, I knew a few in the army anyway [/quote]You are correct. Listening to a few of the interviews it also applies to Korey, not sure about Delia though... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

claud 0 Posted October 27, 2010 What stood out more for me was“This month is definitely the hardest month of the season. But if wecollect as many points as we can and kick on for the rest of the seasonI don’t see why we can’t push on for promotion or be there orthereabouts,”Could it mean that he''s staying on past January?
