He returned to Rovers in 1998 as assistant manager to his younger brother Ian, another legend at DN4.

Former Belles boss Buxton took over at fourth-tier Sheffield last month following a short spell in charge of Bradford City.

Snodin, who has also had spells as assistant manager at Sunderland, Preston and Huddersfield Town, said: "It will be the first time I’ve been involved with a ladies team but I am looking forward to it.

"I have been impressed with what I have seen already. They are better than what I thought when I first saw them.”

Sheffield are currently three points from safety in the Women’s National League Division One Midlands.

Buxton led Belles to a second-placed finish in the same division last term but has suffered defeat in his two opening games at Sheffield.
