Speaking to the club's website Coleman said: “I am delighted to be here. It is a huge honour to work at such a historic club and link up with such an experienced coaching set-up.
“I have managed more than 1,200 matches across almost 30 years, winning multiple promotions and bring vast experience on and off the field. I am aiming to bring a winning edge to the football club, and I can’t wait to get started.
“Leam has done superbly as a coach and manager, and I am looking forward to working alongside him and the rest of the staff to take this club back to where it belongs.”
