He took over as Derry senior manager in November 1990.
In November 1990 Derry were managerless and the Derry County Board rang Coleman and asked him to return home to manage Derry.

Fergal P. McCusker who was on the All-Ireland winning side said "The Derry team would not have been brought together without his skills. He stitched a bunch of guys together and we would have gone through brick walls. We'd have done anything for him. He was the man that inspired you to go that extra yard".
Despite his success with Derry in 1993, he was removed as the manager in 1994 after a loss against Down, a game which was described by many as the greatest match of all time.
