I have never rated Lenihan tbh I think he's hopeless, great at pointing and shouting after the event.
Smith wont play for the Boro again, as his contract is over in June and he has been past it for a long time, slow as old boots even prior to his injury.
I guess he was a reasonable player at times though, especially against poorer teams. But Smith at 33 coming back from a bad injury, we would be really hard up and would be showing little ambition if we re-signed him. I barely forgave him for chucking it in against the club he captained to their play off victory Huddersfield. I think he really helped them out when they needed him most in last seasons away game.
I think we should look between now and the beginning of next season to replace a lot of the defenders.
I cant see us making the play offs, although there has still been some decent football played at times. I think some the players hearts aren't big enough, but hopefully he can see the shirkers, or at least I hope he can.
Djiksteel has to go imho, he either injured or banned., which is no good to us at all.
I think McNair is leaving anyhow, I'm not sure about Clarke, see how the rest of the season goes for him.
Smith's contract runs out in 2025.
