he had been sick for a while...but still an absolute shocker, I played with him and Andy Clements for Farnworth and Worsley boys, remember he went to Birch Road school and his dad was a reporter, he always wanted to play for us, remember him scoring direct from a corner into The Lever End I think it was against Millwall...plus he played when we beat the scum at the shithole (just for playing in that game he deserves Sainthood)

rest in eternal piece Smithy lad
