core answer
-
Jim Bentley is a football manager/coach known for his long association with Morecambe and later roles in non-league management; recent updates would need a quick check of the latest outlets to confirm current club or position.
background and recent activity
- Bentley rose to prominence with Morecambe, serving as manager for several years and then moving on in the late 2010s. If you’re asking about his latest appointment or current role, please specify the time window (e.g., “this week,” “this month,” or “this year”) so I can target the most relevant sources.[4][6]
-
In non-league circles, he’s been linked with roles at clubs like AFC Fylde during past years, but those reports date back a few years and may not reflect current status. If you’d like, I can verify whether there have been any new posts or managerial changes since then.[1][2]
