We had Lee for a spell in 2010 and he came in with rave reviews and we were pleased with his acquisition. However, he failed to get anywhere near the first team, mainly due to fitness issues and the fact he really wasn't that good. I saw him in a couple of Reserve games that he featured in and you could tell that he'd been in a higher league, however, he just didn't seem good enough. His first touch was average at best and his fitness needed a lot of attention. You could tell there was something there but he did look very raw. We subsequently released him in the summer and this is the first I've heard of him since his departure. I see he played a handful of games for Plymouth during their relegation season, so given the state of Argyle's fortunes at that time, it'd be a little harsh to judge him purely on that. 13 games in 4 years is a little worrying as he is very raw and doesn't have much experience, but I suppose the only way of him improving his game is by getting more game time and I'm sure he'll get that opportunity at Accrington.
