Alan Smith

As long as he scores goals he can turn up in a dress, on crutches, or anything else for that matter.

Tough on the other clubs. I read on one board his girlfriend lives in London, so maybe being based down here works out for him.

As long as he is fit he will get plenty of playing time. Newcastle must have gone an extra mile for him to come here as they are paying most of his wages.

So I figure its a real personal choice for him and Newcastle have gone out of their way for it to happen.

League one will be a change for him, and I dont see it as a Flo repeat. Smith is still passionate about the game and will help us get over the line COYD

I'm don't think you should expect a hatful of goals from him! He hasn't scored in 100 games or so. I know that's the EPL, but still...

I imagine you'll use him as a CM, unless Robinson sees some sort of goalscorer in him

I feel another Flo moment coming on

Me too, a missed penalty in the playoffs.

"I imagine you'll use him as a CM, unless Robinson sees some sort of goalscorer in him"

Nope. He said this;

"I am really excited about seeing Alan Smith in an MK Dons shirt, he will fit in to our style of football and will add another element to our front four."

He gets rid if Sicknote Baldock, just to recruit Sicknote Smith, doesn't really make sense unless he really is fit again.

Gives the Physio some practice I suppose

Will give 110%but wether or not he will stand up to 90 minutes thats another question

even 110% of 45 mins would be great for us. We need a big powerfull striker to come on and be capable of changing games. Personally i think he will be good for us and for him. What better way can there be to come from where he is now sitting on his backside playing no part to possibly becoming a Dons hero and the centre of fans attention...I know i would rather take the latter option and still get paid my 60K a week

Surely 110% of 45 minutes is 49.5 minutes, which is okay if there is a lot of injury time, but pretty useless if both teams have gone off. Come on Alan, give everything whilst you are playing, and have a rest at half time

Make sure you are at the game tomorrow night Bill and you can time the game and make your judgement on the % of effort.

If only I could Moocamp, I still hope to get to a game this season, just never in the area at the right time
