Ray Smith
Ray Smith Date of Birth: Apr 14, 1929 Share "Ray Smith" on FacebookWith a middle name such as this Ray could only have been a footballer but perversely only netted once during his Football League career!
After turning out for Evenwood Town, Ray was spotted by Luton and came to Kenilworth Road in 1950. A rugged, tough tackling wing-half, Ray made his League debut at Doncaster in 1951/52 and made his second appearance for the Hatters a year later on the same ground.
After only 12 appearances in seven years, Ray accepted a move to Southend in 1957 where he earned a regular place in the side. A spell at Hastings followed before he hung up his boots.
Ray worked in Luton until retirement and still lived in the town until he passed away in 2017.
