Re: Confirmed: Harry Smith signs for Orient!
According to whoscored.com, he was Northampton Towns best player last season.

Agreed, he looks very useful from these clips.jamespevans wrote: ↑Wed Jul 07, 2021 6:14 pm 2 minutes of him here. Looks a bit more than the big bloke up front
One wonders why Northampton are letting him go, but regardless, I trust someone of Kenny Jacketts experience that he’s made a good choice and that we can improve him with the right coaching.

Yes, signed for an undisclosed fee (in line with league rules about not disclosing fees).RedDwarf 1881 wrote: ↑Wed Jul 07, 2021 7:40 pm Didn’t we pay a fee for him .? Somebody on Facebook reckons Northampton wanted to keep him

Re: Confirmed: Harry Smith signs for Orient!
He's a bit of a donkey, if memory serves, but we needed a big lump and we've got one. I can't imagine he'll start every game. I hope we're going to be a little easier on the eye than that.

Re: Confirmed: Harry Smith signs for Orient!
We weren’t very easy on the eye last year when DJ was too poor on the ball to hold it up and too short to win anything in the air. Don’t really care how attractively we play as long as there’s some sort of plan that’s better than ‘hope Wilko does something or the oppo misplace a backpass for DJ’.Eat The Rich wrote: ↑Wed Jul 07, 2021 9:46 pm He's a bit of a donkey, if memory serves, but we needed a big lump and we've got one.

Looks a decent signing at L2 level and fills a hole - Smith and Smyth up front will also make life easier for Dulcet Dave!
