Career

Smith began his career as a trainee with Oldham Athletic, turning professional in August 2005. He made his club debut on 22 August 2006 when he was a first-half substitute for the injured Chris Howarth in Oldham's 3–1 League Cup defeat away to Rotherham United. [2] He remained on the bench for the following game, a 0–0 defeat at home to Carlisle United, and was brought on as a substitute for midfielder Paul Warne after goalkeeper David Knight had been sent off for handling the ball outside of the penalty area. [3]

He joined Southport on loan in March 2007, [4] and signed for them on a permanent basis in July 2007, having been released by Oldham. [5] He played just once for Southport the following season, a 1–0 defeat away to Harrogate Town on 23 October. [1]

He moved to Ashton United in the 2008 close-season and immediately established himself as first choice keeper, winning the Manager's and Supporters' Player of the Year Awards in his first campaign. [6] At the start of 2010–11 he went 508 minutes until conceding his first goal of the season. [7] Despite a broken rib, kept his sixteenth clean sheet of the season as Ashton won the Northern Premier League Cup for the first time in their history. [8]

In 2017, he joined Hallmark Security Football League club Runcorn Linnets. [9]
