Much respect for Lenny and his work ethic. Can't blame him for moving on and bettering himself whilst his stock is high. Will be interesting to see how he fares higher up. Scored with his fizzog at Wembley and i bet there aren't many who can say that.

How many target men also score 20 goals a season? All the haters, hang your heads in shame!

Quoted from 97


I liked him, wish him all the best, and don't blame him for moving up to the league.

But if there's an element of our play that needs an overhaul it's up front. We just didn't score enough last season. May well be best for everyone.


Pretty much how I feel about it. His goal tally was good, but there's this feeling that somehow that tally paints a better picture than reality for me. He never felt like a dead cert to score when he was in the box, and just how many sitters and good chances did he miss that could have seen his goal tally look far more impressive.

Underrated and the subject of so much criticism throughout the season. What a shame.

Never good to lose a 20 goal striker, whatever division you are in.

Never understood the haters.
Not having his 20 goals, would of meant we never got into the playoffs potentially?

Good luck to the bloke. You deserve to get yourself in a higher league after scoring that many and still taking the excrement.

Really hope Hurst has got some targets in the horizon.

I feel the main problem was not having a regular goalscorer alongside him. He did the target man role very well and despite initial misgivings, i admit to being swayed round by him in the end. Wish him all the best.

Lennie did miss a few BUT he was always in the position to get those chances. You might have a better finisher but they also have to get in the positions.

Lennie's work ethic and strength will be hard to replace and a jonny on the spot alone wont be good enough. Hopefully a direct replacement for the shop AND a goalhanger who does sodomist all but finds the net.

Easy isnt it?

Good luck to him.

Loved him as a player and hope he scores loads for Newport. As others have alluded to his move to the football league makes those who thought he was crap look a bit daft.

Massive blow.  

Hurst's game plan works around LJL and has done for the past two years.  Either we get in a similar type player who will do the same amount of work for the team or Hurst tries a different approach.

I wonder if Hannah would have been released had Hurst known LJL was leaving...
