Bell predicts ‘great future’ at Stanley

Accrington assistant manager Jimmy Bell is already planning for next season and admits it will not be easy for the club to compete with their League Two rivals.

Bell, alongside manager John Coleman, guided Stanley back into the Football League after a 44-year exile in 2006.

The Reds are currently 17th and have the lowest attendances in the Football League, but Bell is adamant the club is fully behind his and Coleman’s vision for the future.

He said: “It’s a well-known fact that we can’t go out like some clubs do in this league and pay players top wages.

“We have to make sure that the players we bring in make an instant impact and not only want to play for their wages but play for the name of the club as well.

“We are already looking ahead to next season and have brought through five youth-team players during this campaign, which is testament to the effort of everyone at the football club and what we see as being a great future for us.”
