Accrington to recall Coleman as manager

John Coleman is set for a second spell as boss of League Two Accrington Stanley, reports BBC Radio Lancashire. The 51-year-old will move from League of Ireland Premier Division side Sligo Rovers with his long-time assistant manager Jimmy Bell.

James Beattie left Accrington on Friday after 16 months in charge.

Coleman has been in Ireland after leaving Southport in April, having spent 13 years at Accrington before moving to Rochdale in 2012.
