Encyclopedia
Jeffrey 'Jeff' Smith is an English
footballer midfielder
who plays for Whitby Town
in the Northern Premier League Premier Division
.
He started his career with Hartlepool United
in 1998, but a year he later moved on to Barrow
, and shortly after Bishop Auckland
. After two years at Bishop Auckland, he was signed by Bolton Wanderers
. Rarely used by Bolton, he was instead loaned out to Macclesfield Town
, Scunthorpe United
, Rochdale
, and Preston North End
, before he signed permanently with Port Vale
in 2004. A regular in the first team at Vale, he left after three years to sign with Carlisle United
. In 2009 he joined Darlington
, but only spent one season at the club. In August 2010 he moved to Belgium
to play one season with R.O.C. de Charleroi-Marchienne
, before he returned to England with Whitby Town a year later.
in 1998, but was released a year later in 1999 after playing three league games. After his release, Smith joined non-League
team Barrow
but failed to impress the club and was released after playing one game. After his release, Smith joined Bishop Auckland
.
Smith's performances at Bishop Auckland were much improved and he was hailed as one of the best crossers in non-league football. In March 2001, Smith joined Football League First Division
club Bolton Wanderers
on a short contract deal after impressing during a week-long trial. Smith wanted to show Wanderers manager Sam Allardyce
that he could make the grade in the Football League. Smith played in the final league match of the 2000–01 season, a 1–1 draw against Sheffield United
. This was a massive step up for a man who just a few months previous was working as a postal worker
whilst playing part-time for Bishop Auckland.
He signed a new contract following Bolton's promotion
to the Premier League, but struggled to get into the first team, playing a few League Cup
matches. Smith was loaned to Macclesfield Town
for two months to gain some experience in December 2001, and scored two goals in eight league games. He still struggled to get into the first team, playing in one league match away to West Ham United
, again the last game of the season.
In the two following seasons Smith played only a handful of League Cup and FA Cup
matches and was loaned out to Scunthorpe United
, Rochdale
and Preston North End
for brief periods at the back end of the 2003–04 season. During the three loan spells he made a combined total of just two starts and five substitute appearances, with injury also plaguing him. He was released by Wanderers in the summer.
In June 2004, Smith joined Port Vale
on a one year contract. He was a first team regular during his first season at the club and Vale offered Smith a new contract, which he accepted.
Smith was again in and around the first team throughout the 2005–06 season, and signed a new one year deal at the end of the campaign.
Smith started the first half of the 2006–07 season very strongly, causing interest from other clubs. In January 2007, Smith joined Carlisle United
for a fee of £60,000 on a 2½ year contract. Smith made his Carlisle début in a goalless draw at Brentford
, scoring his first goal at Doncaster Rovers
a week later. He was injured in a 2–1 win over Luton Town
after coming on as a substitute, causing him to be replaced himself. This was his last game of the campaign.
Smith was released from Carlisle at the end of 2008–09
after having played just twenty games all season, with the club narrowly avoiding relegation out of League One
.
He was signed by League Two
's Darlington
manager Colin Todd
in June 2009. Darlington had a poor season, relegated out of the Football League
, eighteen points from safety, losing 32 of their 46 games, the team managed to score just 33 goals.
In July 2010 he went on trial at Scottish Premier League
side Aberdeen
, but was not offered a contract. The following month he signed a two year contract with Olympic Charleroi
of the Belgian Third Division B
.
After one season of football in Belgium he returned to England, and spent July 2011 on trial at Rotherham United
. In November he joined up with Whitby Town
in the Northern Premier League Premier Division
