I hope I’m wrong but this is setting off my Reynolds/Evans alarm

The fact he met her on a visit to her school is very very dodgy though.

Not a signing that sits well with me but a Tony smith signing through and through. He’s obviously not bothered about what people are like off the pitch. (E.g minchiella, SKD, Ashworth)
I’m not sure all the details of his controversy but from what it looks like, he had sex with a very young girl that was only just legal (when he was 23) whilst he was doing school visits. Does that make her 18 or 16?
Either way it doesn’t really sit well with me as it’s an abuse of power.
2 of our signings this year I would’ve avoided. Let’s hope they at least perform on the pitch.

With all the talk of culture and bringing in not just good players but good people, this seems a strange signing but guess we have to trust TS. Hopefully he's coming with a big point to prove and he'll get my backing.
