    I've been with SMI several years now and known Ian Harte since I was just a boy him like the rest of the company have always done their upmost to look after me in whatever I've needed both on and off the pitch and supported me no matter where my career has taken me. There honest hardworking people and there isn't a company I'd rather have looking after me.

    I joined Fleetwood Town at at the age of 15 and by 16 I was fortunate enough to make my professional debut for the club. At this point I realised I needed an agent and this is where SMI came into my life, helping my career progress. Since partnering with SMI, ive found them to be incredibly helpful, reassuring and trustworthy. From securing me a move to Premier League side AFC Bournemouth to securing a loan move for game time and progression to guidance on my career. They are more than just an agency, by building bonds with my family over the years they have made my professional journey even smoother. I would highly recommend SMI to any professional football baller looking to advance and support and progression with their career.

    I count myself extremely lucky to have had Lee & Mark by my side on my journey. Ive been in teams up and down the country & in this game both honesty & integrity are values that are becoming increasingly difficult to find. However, SMI have carried that in abundance throughout the 10 years we've worked together. They have always worked for me & my family & never themselves, they put the player first at all times and their work ethic is unquestionable. I can only thank them for everything they have contributed to my career & life.

    I've been with SMI since I broke through at Crewe, the boys have helped me push on and achieve multiple seasons in the championship with Cardiff, Blackpool and Millwall. They've always sorted me out when I've asked for their help and you need them kind of people on your side especially when you're starting out. All the staff are welcoming and helpful regardless of who you speak to and I look forward to continuing and finishing my career with this agency.

    I've known Lee for a long time and he was always interest in me so it was a no brainer really. I joined with him when I was about 16 and he's helped me with my progress a lot. All the staff at SMI have been really helpful up to now in my career and hopefully we can go on for longer and help me until I retire.

    Having been involved with football professionally and semi professionally for 7 years I struggled to find an agent that cared about my career and my personal life like I have done with Joe and the SMI team. Since joining them they've helped me on and off pitch with not only their words but their actions most importantly

    Having been with SMI for several years now I can only speak highly of them. I can only be grateful for the way Lee and Joe have helped me on and off the pitch with constant support daily and importantly bettering me. Their hard work behind the scenes is something that is hard to come by. Knowing that they genuinely want the best for my career makes them not just agents but family.

    As a player who's been undermined in the system coming towards 18s and meeting SMi is something that has changed me and Improved me as a player as they help give me a more of an insight of what I can work on as a player in order to continue improving. Especially with Joe as he gives me constant personal calls and consistently looking after me helping our relationship on and off the pitch from the advice and guidance I'm given from him. SMi has helped me to improve myself and for me to continue doing so.
