Quoted from Chris


Maybe he was getting stick for diving all over the shop trying to con the ref to get our players booked/sent off and winning free kicks or pens in dangerous areas. He's a cheat, always has been. Half his goals have come from pens he cheated to win.

Is that controversial enough for everyone? Plenty of truth in it though!!



I don't recall many complaints when he was doing it for us though.

I was never a fan of Lester's either and it does surprise me that he's rated so highly by so many Town fans. His strike rate was pretty poor (17 goals in over 130 games I think). He seemed to spend too much time trying to con referees into awarding penalties rather than scoring goals. Maybe that's because he was more talented at the former than the latter.

Ok, he went on to have a successful career but I just didn't rate him when he was here.

Personally thought everybody loved Jack Lester, very clever player indeed and at  a young age. Prefer him to win it over Connell everytime.
