If so..."Former teammate Tom Pope stated that Leitch-Smith was "one of the most intelligent strikers... in League One".[48]"

Continuing a theme!

Where's this come from? If he's a number nine, brilliant!

As I recall he has been a successful striker both at Crewe and Morecambe

Morecambe's highest scorer a couple of seasons ago!

There is a mini profile of him if you look on the Alty Files website, no mention of signing him though of course.

...with 6 goals  ;D

If he has good athleticism and works hard, he should fit into the team well.

He was a trialist at the first preseason game. Anything beyond that is guess work

So, given that he wasn't in the squad at Nantwich, he probably hasn't signed (yet?)

We'll have to see but the source is adamant he has signed a 12 month contract.

It seems odd as he was substituted at half time in a match where we did not play well in the first half. He may have a good pedigree, but I would be reluctant to sign him after that performance.

As has been said, we will see though.
