Hythe lose Buster Smissen

[wishingwells]

Smissen out for the "foreseeable future" according to Hythe boss Paul Fisk. Obviously a huge blow to Hythe, losing last seasons top goalscorer, 47 goals all in all. Surely going to have a big impact on their promotion push, will be interesting to see how they fare over the coming weeks, not to mention todays big game against Holmesdale.

It'll be interesting, but in Pat Kingwell and Scott Bouvier, I think they still have plenty of firepower.

Bouvier was quite highly rated as a prospect by Ashford fans. It may take him a couple of months to get settled but he shouldn't be allowed to slip under the radar.

in the past it has been established forwards that have won the league so losing buster will be a huge blow to hythe - who do you think has the best forward line out of the challengers. has to be us or E&B?
