Daventry Town appoint former Watford striker Smart as new manager


The 40-year-old replaces former boss Darran Foster, who quit the club last week after the playing budget had been cut.
Smart, who had a short loan spell at Northampton Town in 1996, helped Watford gain promotion to the Premier League in 1999/2000 and scored 12 times in 56 appearances for the Vicarage Road outfit before leaving in 2001.
