Shame, he seems to enjoy the South Wales life, his instagram often shows him with his dogs around the coast and fab local countryside, although familiar territory having been at Walsall before.
Good business for the club though.

Think well know better if he's not on the bench Saturday.
Ps not convinced about Joe Day. You can almost guarantee Smithies will get a knock early doors.
Isnt the youngster highly rated?

Birmingham media saying he's having a medical. Good luck, Neil
I think it's a good move for everyone it's pointless having a keeper that good as a number 2. Joe day kicking is questionable and Newport County fans have told me this but other than that what I've seen of him he has looked OK.
I'm sure it's something that coaches can work with him on its not like he duffs one to an attacker every other game.
Watch Smithies get injured now
Good business for both clubs, a bloody good keeper for a bargain price, and money saved on someone who won't play and will go for nothing in 12 months
Always liked him seemed a decent person in a ladish footballers world .
Great shot stopper , poor distributor , at times looked nervous with back passes , guessing that was due to his own confidence in playing it out comfortably with his his feet , also felt his areal ability was sometimes suspect which could cause panic amongst his defenders .
Watching Smithies and the defense they look a calmer and more efficient unit dealing with the areas mentioned above .
Good signing if happens for Brum.
Good luck to the lad .
if we can get a fee and get another position in then fine by me.
Sign of the times but feel we are a bit thin on quality in areas. We've only really strengthened ST. Got a RB in who replaces another RB that has left. A winger in who will hopefully be an adequate replacement for NML but time will tell.
If cunningham and Etheridge go as predicted then we look quite light to me.
Seen on twitter 1.5m is the fee, think he's worth bit more than that . Guarantee Smithies injury beginning of the season
Had to be done, one had to go and it wasn’t going to be Joe Day swelling the coffers and, reluctantly because he’s been a good servant who’s never seemed to rock the boat when out of favour, in fact he seemed very supportive when on the bench, I’m happier that it’s Etheridge, I’m firmly in the Smithies camp.
Harris says it is very advanced (ie it is done)
Have to disagree, Birmingham have just signed Andres Prieto from Espanyol as their #1, why would Etheridge go there & sit on the bench. I don't understand why City would want to weaken one area we're strong in, seems we don't value strength in depth in vital areas.
