toon_don 0 Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 I'm sure I remember Smith hitting the bar with an absolute screamer in one game. Apart form that yeah, he contributed virtually nothing, other than 3 months kicking everything that moved alongside but in the Championship.

NYD 0 Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 He's yet another has been footballer who has made mega bucks from NUFC. He's a very lucky bloke to have made such a good living for doing fuck all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaddockLad 14580 Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 Smith's career was built on a good 6 month spell for Leeds in the champions league. He's done fuck all to speak of since then. Unlucky with his injury whilst at manu, but what had he actually done before then? Poor finisher for a centre forward and incapable of passing it more than ten yards as a midfielder. Don't know how he can look himself in the mirror. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin S. Assilleekunt 1 Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 (edited) You missed out a key part of his appeal, which was that he was an ENGLISH HARD-MAN, willing to GIVE 110% in the name of glory; football was more than kicking a ball around to Alan Smith: this was LIFE AND DEATH stuff. The English football man goes weak at the knees when they witness a player who dishes out bone-crunching tackles, running around bashing and crippling the opposition. Thus Smith's value was inflated by approximately 5999999% Edited May 27, 2012 by Kevin S. Assilleekunt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Smith was a headless chicken, fair enough he gave 100% but it often cost him a booking or sending off, and a booked player who gave 100% could never give 100% after he was booked or sent off. He was a waste of money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin S. Assilleekunt 1 Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 When you give 100%, but then you give that extra 10% that people like Alan Smith are willing to give, then you are giving 110%. It's like 100%, but with extra effort on top of the original 100%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you give that bit extra then you weren't giving 100% in the first place ! 110%, load of bollocks ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you give 100% no effort, then you won't move at all--you will remain completely stationary. If you give 0% no effort, then it is essentially the same as giving 100% effort. But, if you go that one step further, and give -10% no effort, then you are giving even more than 0% no effort. I know it's hard to understand this advanced maths, but it is possible--look at the Chinese, they're doing this stuff in high-school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Face 29 Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 To give 100% you'd have to give EVERYTHING YOU HAVE. Spit, vomit, faeces.....you'd have to be coughing up blood. You'd have to be left a husk of a man curled up on the pitch, shivering, drooling, unable to move a limb, at deaths door. Â If anyone at the club plays like they're in that condition, its Alan Smith. Â Probably best to give about 25%, conserve some energy for the next time you get the ball. Â Ben Arfa gives 7%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
