A former Preston North End, Bristol City and Sheffield United striker has got an interesting managerial job abroad.
If you’ve been supporting Preston North End since the early 2000s, you’ll have seen countless players turn out at Deepdale, with some more memorable than others. It was a period in the clubs history that they challenged for promotion to the Premier League, but also diced with the prospect of relegation from the Championship with some lowly finishes.
He was in charge of Slovakian outfit FK Dubnica for a brief spell, and now after 13 months out of the game, he's back in the dugout, and this time in a different country. Commenting on his appointment, Smith said to Veikkausliiga: “This is for me, like any coach, an opportunity to develop the players and myself both as a coach and as a person. “I have managed to coach in different countries. It’s been great, I’ve learned a lot and I want to develop further, says Smith.
