Spursman Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 Whoever Lee plays for I shall always be a great fan of his. Whilst I am no lover of Grays, I personally wish him every success for the future and thank him most sincerely for his most excellent service to CIFC. All the very best Lee and thanks for the memories. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/bow.gif" alt="" /> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt H Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 All the best Lee, definately one of Canvey's most historical characters and still glad he's playing at quite a high level. I wonder if Sedgemore will end up there too? Would love to have a friendly with them now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richard sparkes Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 Best of luck Lee best finisher ive ever seen in non league football Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exile Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 Given the number of games Lee lost to injuries over the last two seasons his goalscoring record is even more outstanding - think Sven should have taken him instead of Walcott ! Hope he does well next season, glad he's not dropping down the pyramid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggy Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 This transfer has been on the cards for a while.. Don't think there was any official money involved! I will miss your fine goals and of course your very good looking Wife!! Good Luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taking the Mick Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 I am a little Mythed by this move in some aspects for the following reasons: - Why would Jeff King make such a fuss about the contract and then just let him go on a free (if that is the case) - If Grays paid a fee for Boylan why did we only sign him on a years contract, if we paid a 5 figure sum for him surely you want to secure his signature for more than a year????????? I cant see it being a free transfer because Boylan went to a Tribunal on Monday to free him from his contract and lost so I cant see that on the Thurday Jeff King just said "Oh what the hell there you go Lee you free to go" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taking the Mick Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 Yeah Some are worried about him being Injury prone but the way I see it he has not really been that injury prone he was just unlucky with a couple of breaks. Its not like he has a history of being out with knee problems or anything like that. Im looking forward to seeing him play on a regular basis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt H Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 He would've been alright last season, if someone had moved the goalposts. That was purely an accident, which no-one could be blamed for. Boylan rarely gets injured, but when he does they're quite serious or just accidents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ribbit Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 That's right. Last season some Stevenage bellend broke his leg, then Lee thought it'd be fun to run into a goal post. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" /> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt H Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 Prior to breaking his leg though I don't recall Boylan having that much time out with injuries during our previous Ryman days. It's not like he missed three or four games every few months with persistant niggles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ribbit Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 Definately not. He's just been unlucky. If things had've been different, maybe he'd be at Southend now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
