Just been having a giggle to old Peter Smith threads including this amazingly accurate assessment.

I have this sort of non-specific memory of Peter Smith going on a long run down the right wing, the ball at no moment under control, yet somehow ploughing on past defender after defender with his ungainly turn of 'pace', aided by the odd lucky ricochet and missed tackle. Almost through sheer persistence he'd get to the byline - and then shin the cross into the North Stand.

Great memories. Probably one of my Albion favourites, for no other reason than he wanted it more than most.

Peter Smith was diabolical.

Really? I was young(ish) at the time and he was one of my favourites. Not technically great, but decent defendef, gave his all and made some amazing runs forward.
That's more than we got from Jara Reyes the year before last and we must have been paying him some big money
