I was prompted to see what/how Ashley Smith-Brown is doing now. At the age of 27, no longer a professional footballer having been at South Shields > Farsley Celtic > Staleybridge Celtic, who released him last year. A reminder, I suppose, how many young players (even those taken up by the larger clubs) fall by the wayside and how loaning in alleged 'ones for the future' from such clubs is very much *not* a guarantee that you are getting a player of a quality you couldn't afford otherwise.
