Non League Yorkshire

Coulson to stay with Scarborough

Scarborough’s Michael Coulson

Captain Michael Coulson has become the first player to commit to the Jonathan Greening era at Scarborough Athletic.

Coulson returned to his hometown club in 2017 after a career in the Football League with the likes of Barnsley, Grimsby Town and York City as well as St Johnstone.

Greening told Scarborough’s website: “I’m delighted to have him onboard for the year again. Scarborough is in his heart, he is a top player and a top pro.

“When I was at York running the 18s, he was a massive presence for them and I played against him when he was a whippersnapper at Barnsley. It has been a joy to watch him over the years and I’m very pleased to have him as captain of the club.

“He’s not just a creative player who can score goals, he is one that puts a shift in for the team, which is exactly what I want.”

One player who is not returning to Scarborough is defender Harry Coates who recently announced his departure and has since signed for Ashton United.
