One of the most unremittingly tough players ever. He was truly scary at a time when most teams had a hatchet man or two.

Football doesn't always look after it's own and he was living in sheltered housing for a while suffering from dementia and a shot body after all the pain killers they used to take.

Ha ha Lol. Purely by coincidence I was a few sherbets down when I posted that. Sentiment remains though. There'll be tributes galore and minute silences all over the place, when in reality nobody cared enough to even give the bloke a hot meal in real life. Supposedly he was in all sorts of strive at the end. So much for you'll never walk alone.

I recall with affection the uncompromising player who is a legend at Liverpool afer playing nearly 500 games for the club.The 'Anfield Iron' was a true leader who gave his all for the team. Thoughts go out to all his family and friends. RIP.

Great servant and was such a hard man on the pitch like Ron Harris at Chelsea and Billy Bremner at Leeds. Loved watching those guys back in the day. It was a hard (sometimes unfair) game back in those days and Tommy Smith was one of the greats / hard men of that generation. In today’s football he would have got a yellow or perhaps a red with his first challenge :-) Makes you realise how old you are when you watched him as a young man yourself :-(
