RIP

[ken smith]

Bit of an old racist by all accounts.

I hope that no one posts something like that about you the day after you pop off. He was a football legend.

My two main memories of Tommy Smith were of him scoring an unlikely goal in a European Cup Final and then, about a year later, "welcoming" Ossie Ardilles and Ricardo Villa to Britain by kicking them both up in the air in a League Cup tie between John Toshack's jacks and Spurs - I went to that game and watched from a packed North Bank.

RIP.

I’ve seen no evidence that Ken Smith is a racist.

RIP Tommy. Part of the first football dynasty that I remember

His headed goal in the European Cup Final is an abiding image. Shame that it’s likely that heading a ball for all those years contributed to his Alzheimer’s

Great footballer, pretty despicable views on race.

I suppose people's views will depend on whether you feel you can separate the artist from the art

Used to give Howard Gayle , the Liverpool born black striker terrible racist grief , Gayle said it ruined his confidence as a young player

Legend or not , he was a racist
