    According to the Daily Mail, Colin is tracking Mackail-Smith as he see's him as the answer to our goal scoring problems for the forthcoming season!
    Mackail-Smith - 9 Goals
    McCormack - 19 Goals

    Enough said!!

    A bit of an unfair comparison ... McCormack started far more games than Mackael-Smith. Didn't do too badly against us, a couple of goals and a penalty won.

    I don't know, stats say he played a total of 50 games last season and scored 10 goals, been credited with lots of assists though. The problem is agents are using our search for players to draw attention to those wanting away. Leroy Lita, Cox, Gray, Mackail Smith, Beckford, Cameron Jerome, Varney, Ricardo Fuller are just a few strikers that have all been linked with us.

    As I said a few days ago (and it's nice to get a comment in again, been having internet troubles due to moving) we're going to get linked to a lot of players this summer. I do expect Varney to sign, but if we get another forward I'd prefer Cox to any of the others mentioned, barring maybe Becks.

    Good to see you back, I was wondering just this morning where you had gone as I hadn't seen you posting, hope the move went well <ok>

    What a time to have no Internet connection with all the rumours and goings on around ER at the moment, I would have been breaking out into cold sweats ;)

    I used to play 5 a-side football at the local PowerLeague in Watford with a few mates after work. One evening we played against a pub side. On comes this bloke as a sub. Virtually everytime he got the ball rolled out to him by his keeper, he took a touch and scored from all angles - could really hit a ball. Turns out it was Craig M Smith and he was evidentally at Dagenham & Redbridge at the time and had just played for England amateur over in th US.

    He had a good record in League 1 at Peterborough. If he didnt cut it with Bighton, not sure he could at Leeds..

    Mikail smith is a very hardworking player runs all day but I would still prefer Cox.
