Still delighted to hand Smith a first pro deal
Town boss John Still believed that midfielder Charlie Smith’s first professional contract was a just reward for the teenager.
Smith, 18, was handed the deal last Wednesday after impressing the Luton boss both in training and during his loan spell at Hitchin Town.
He joins the likes of Zane Banton and Ian Rees who have both signed pro terms as Still said: “Charlie deserves it, he’s done ever so well.

With Luton back in the Football League, Still admitted Smith and co might well spend another stint on loan at the start of the campaign to further his development.
