Looks like he got Christian Jolley's old job............. Good luck Lenny a loss to GTFC but conference defenders will be delighted as there is one less "bully" to deal with on a Saturday afternoon.

I really wouldn't be surpised if he comes back on loan because he suited us. Even then he scored 23 goals in 90 games for us and that's the best scoring rate he's had at any club. He's going to be playing against better defences next season as well.Expect him to be dropped and back here by Xmas!

I hope not, that would mean we have failed to find a good replacement,

I always thought Lenny worked his socks off,

BUT

There is better players out there.

I won't be a hypocrite and say I will miss LJL because I won't , always thought he was terrible and we could do better.

As some on here have said, that the " haters" should hang their heads in shame..........balderdash

Wish him good look in his new venture, as I do to all the players that will be leaving the club

Again, in a minority but I agree, always needed 4 or 5 chances to put one in.
Having said that I'm pleased he isn't in our League.

It's a shame we've lost Lenny, but you can't fault him for a League return.  Without the shop, I would love to see PH offer a deal to Hannah, he gets goals, loves the club, the boss and fans, plus oozes this team ethic that the players have right now.  Hannah and Lenny never looked a good pairing, but now LJL has gone, surely we will struggle to get a better goal getter than Ross, give him a deal Paul and give him games, he'll take us up.  We don't want to see another Southwell situ, where he leaves and bags goals for fun!

Lenny will be a big miss - it's ok bemoaning the points dropped at home, but how many points were won away from home through, in no small part, his tireless work ethic. It's a truism in football that defence starts with the strikers, and away from home that's even more so. Some of LJL's best qualities aligned to that philosophy.

It's now up to the manager to find a like for like replacement, or change the style a little to accommodate the next incumbent.

So long Lenell John-Lewis and thanks for all the fish goals and hard work

I don't know what this fascination with Hannah is. In what way is he better than Pittman, pace, strength, ability on the ball, beating the offside trap, aerial prowess, and even finishing. Last season, I think it was against Torquay he missed a couple of sitters, if Lenny had missed them there'd have been a riot, with Hannah, ooh, ok that was good. I don't get it.
