It is understood that as with Gurney (right) the position will be subject to review on January 31st.
Commenting on his return to the Woodspring Stadium Smith said: “I’m just glad to be back and if it is just to the end of January then fine but if it is for longer then brilliant.
“I’ve no mis-conceptions about how hard it is going to be.
“There would not have been anybody else that I would of come back for. But Andrew Gurney is a mate and somebody I trust 100%.
“I am desperate for him to do well and I am desperate for the club to do well and whatever little part I can play in that I will be happy to be part of it.
“I know most of the lads and the ones that I do not know have been as good as gold.
“He has got a good bunch of lads here and we just need a bit of belief.
“You have got to respect Gurns for what he has done in football and I think that respect is evident here.”
