In the Stands: Alan Smith

Anyone care to tell us what’s going on with dear ole Smudger’s barnet fair? We’d like to run a blast of oil-absorbing dry shampoo through that mop.
Also, we’re quite sure we talked to Alan’s people and informed them that we only want to see him shirtless or thigh-flaunting.
This is neither of those things.
UPDATE: Er… we are quite humbled by the amount of Smudge-love raining down in the comments. Who knew!?

Ew, that is a nasty hair do.

Oh no, oh no…!! This has totally ruined my Smudge crush. Hopefully I can get it back one day.

I actually quite like this look. I'm glad he has put aside the peroxide. And I'm enjoying the facial hair and the pout. If he was shirtless, I'd be in a happy place.
I thought for a minute that it wasn't Alan Smith in the Toon kit, but James MacAvoy. I agree with Fourth, though. I love him with the slight facial hair and minus the peroxide (on his head).
Ah, Smudge… I prefer him shirtless and with short hair, but he does have a pretty-pouty mouth. Hope to see him on the pitch again soon!
I usually think he's pretty cute. But this Ethan Hawke 1994 grunge thing is not.
he is always cute <img src="http://www.kickette.com/images/smileys/wink.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="wink" style="border:0;" />
Biggest mistake was leaving the reds buddy.. Missing the Blonde Locks! =(
wahoo!! good to see he’s still alive
Love Smithy! I’m Not liking the Woody look though, but he’s had it cut now so no worries <img src="http://www.kickette.com/images/smileys/smile.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="smile" style="border:0;" />

Mmmmmm rough and ready looking Smudge – delish
Once the shirt comes off all this will be a distant memory. Welcome back Smudge!!!
There is a lot of Smudge love going on around here. He is hot whatever he does to his hair.
Oh. My. God.What has he done? Where are his golden locks? I wnat the old smudge back!!
i swear if he keeps it like this i'm going to walk to newcastle and beat him with a stick! and for the record wasn't he like blonde 2 weeks ago in training? cut it! the hair i mean..and the freaking beard. i want smudge clean and smooth. shirtless and in lampsy's shorts. yes he's all kinds of love!
Smudge is looking hot, hot, hot in this pic!!
Can't wait to see him back on the pitch.
Actually, I think it's hot – it's his eyes.
Smudge.
LOL! I miss him and I nearly cried when he left Man Utd. The hotness of the team went down with his departure…
call me weird..
but I think he looks super hot *-*
This man has always been fit and he looks very hot au natural!
I happy to see him again, and yep I think he looks good – cold but good.
It’s really hard for smudge to look bad. It’s not his best look, but he’s still a cutie. That mouth could make up for just about anything.
Smudge is looking hot, hot, hot in this pic!!
Can’t wait to see him back on the pitch.
This is what happens when you spend months out of the game recovering… he has lost all sense of awesome/awfulness with his hair. He is now just getting abck into the game.
With Damien Duff and the new boy Peter, Smudge is in for a battle to regain his most process hair spot on the Toon team sheet
