The 30-year-old former Everton trainee worked with Stanley boss John Coleman at Southport and has also spent time at Bristol City, Port Vale and Morecambe.

"I think he's a top player," Coleman told

"He's a good character, he's got a tremendous will to win and he'll fit in with our lads seamlessly."
