He was a hard man and a leader. Liverpool's Dave Mackay, can't pay a bigger compliment than that. Good scouser as well if I recall, didn't he get done for fiddling the social security or was it their keeper? He was also a racist and bully according to black team mates, so not the nicest guy, but he wasn't the only one in those days.
IIRC it was because he took part in a Legends penalty shootout at half time of a high profile match at Wembley while receiving benefit for arthritis, according to Smith himself he was drugged up to the eyeballs just so he could walk onto the pitch - but the fact he did meant he had his benefit stopped and had to go through the whole rigmarole of proving he was unable to work all over again
