Dolmanator Posted January 10, 2015 Report Share Posted January 10, 2015 Heard loan being terminated soon and he's off to wolves similar to Kane situation. Hopefully not true Doesn't his loan end soon? So it wouldn't be terminated, I expect whoever you heard it from is wrong or winding you up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cider Queen Posted January 10, 2015 Report Share Posted January 10, 2015 Can't see it.. why would Fulham loan him to a rival.. he'll either stay with us or go back to Fulham's first team... imho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cityexile Posted January 10, 2015 Report Share Posted January 10, 2015 Can't see it.. why would Fulham loan him to a rival.. he'll either stay with us or go back to Fulham's first team... imho I suppose if he does not fit in their plans at all, it could be a sale, but he is on a long contract. Not sure we will be able to extend his loan, but we will see. No point stressing about that one, its worked out way better than we might have hoped.

Negan Posted January 10, 2015 Report Share Posted January 10, 2015 I honestly think we would put a bid in for him if Fulham recall him to sell him to Wolves. They only paid 500k for him so I'm sure we could match that if need be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedM Posted January 10, 2015 Report Share Posted January 10, 2015 Can't believe how much he has improved fom Boxing Day. He looks ten times fitter, sharper and confident. At Christmas he stood out, for the wrong reasons. Today he stood out for all the right reasons. Fulham, if you are reading this..best leave him here, our work on him isn't quite done yet!

Fulham, if you are reading this..best leave him here, our work on him isn't quite done yet! it's called match fitness, I do believe SC may have made mention of it once or twice and even a week ago and it would appear that perhaps JET might be falling into the same category, just a thought.

Bristol_Badger Posted January 10, 2015 Report Share Posted January 10, 2015 He's doing great. I personally would love him on loan until the end of the season but wouldn't want him if we were to get to the championship. Let's not get too carried away.

I hear what you are saying but you have to have ability too which Smith obviously has. I'm sorry but my memory is scarred from having bad experiences with players like Stern John, Agyemang. They weren't fit or have any ability. We had them for longer than we've had smith and even combined didn't give anything like the return from Smith so far. What Cotts and the staff have done with Smith in such a short time is pretty unbelievable you got to admit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Ian M Posted January 10, 2015 Admin Report Share Posted January 10, 2015 He's doing great. I personally would love him on loan until the end of the season but wouldn't want him if we were to get to the championship. Let's not get too carried away. Rickie Lambert made a career out of using his frame to bully Football League defenders and made the most of his aerial ability whilst playing in a good footballing team (then he joined Liverpool) & many City at the time said he wouldn't be good enough for the Championship. I would love to turn Smith's loan move into a permanent one. Plus I'm praying SL goes out and gets Afobe to play alongside him! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What Cotts and the staff have done with Smith in such a short time is pretty unbelievable you got to admit? Perhaps more evidence of how deep the changes are at BCFC, all it just needed patience and perhaps unwittingly an injury to our 2 main strikers and suddenly we have 4 strikers capable of scoring, giving SC the cliche headache that all managers love once Agard and Wilbraham are fully fit, happy days.

samo II Posted January 10, 2015 Report Share Posted January 10, 2015 Unfortunately, I think the most important factor in if Smith stays today was probably Fulham losing without scoring at Cardiff. The lad has been magnificent for us at a time we desperately needed him to be, and surely must go down as one of our best ever loan signings, but unless SL is willing to break the bank on him, canno see Fulham's gaffer getting away with letting him stay here, considering his form and their own.

cityexile Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 Interesting some of them think it is obvious it was a bad decision to lend him out. Surely even from a Fulham perspective if has been great. He was unfit, fifth choice, and not in form. He is now much fitter and getting his confidence back. Got to be a great result for them.

Stubbsy1993 Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 I would be very surprised if Fulham would want to let him go out again after his period with us ends due to his current form. Though, I and every other City fan wouldn't be complaining if we were to keep him on for a longer amount of time. Seems to be forming a partnership with JET too, which can only be positive.

CyderInACan Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 With his loan expiring on the 25th Jan, that means that after tonight's game there's only Scunny (a) on Saturday in the league & (hopefully) the FA Cup 4th Rd game v. Eve/W Ham on the day the initial deal expires. Moving back to a struggling Fulham side surely can't be as appealing as the prospect of potentially playing a pivotal part in what will hopefully be a memorable (for the right reasons) season for us. Seems to be polarising opinion on the FFC Forum here: http://www.friendsoffulham.com/forum/index.php?topic=45011.0 I hope he stays, we're gawd knows how long off Wilbs & Agard being fit so to lose him in a fortnight would be a huge blow.
