For me this new signing is a real marker.

If Smith can get say 4 more in at that apparent level then I think we could feel more confident that can be added to on promotion.

If its just a couple then how are you going to then add the couple more to get to Smiths assessment right now and then more to add to it next year? Then we'll be spreading too thin again.
