Lee Jackson Head Groundsman Leaving

[RadcliffeRick]

Anyone know why he’s leafing?

I hope he has not been forked off!

49, joined City at 16, we are so different in character but when I turn up in 115 at Etihad or Kippax at Maine road I was proud my brother was playing his part whether Kare Ingebrigsten was stepping foot on the pitch or David Silva, hopefully the club can recognize the job he's done.

I hope they do something big for him, he deserves a great send-off. We all appreciate the efforts over the years keeping the show running so we could go through the many ups and downs together we've had over those 33 years.

I love to see people branching out.

All the best bud.

 

[BringBackSwales]

So is he off to pastures new?

So is he off to pastures new?

He`s going far afield.

 

[Johnny Mars Bar]

He might regret this, the grass isn't always greener

I remember getting a bollocking of Stan the grounds man at Maine Road for going on the pitch. CTID

Strange one, he’s just been turfed out apparently !

Hedge fund manager apparently

I was taking with him a few months ago in the pub, he said he had a Clash of words with his boss and he asked me
"Should I rake or should I hoe?"

 

[BringBackSwales]

I have always liked Lee, seems a very well cultivated bloke

I remember how quickly they got the snow shifted round the goal areas during half time a few years back. My Canadian granddaughters were at the game and were very impressed and they’d come from very deep snow to our few inches!

Job well done Lee and thanks from this grateful fan.

As he says himself
I’m sure we will all wish him well and good luck in whatever he chooses next

33 years? Seems like only yesterday Stan Gibson turned his mower off.

We've been lucky to have had a fantastic playing surface for years and years and years tended by experts in their field (sorry) even when the team wasn't good enough to take advantage of it.

 

[remember arthur mann]

Is it worth a few of us on here setting up a rota to cut the grass until the club appoint a successor? I've got a Flymo but don't have a 100m extension lead.

I'm concerned about the implications of this on some of the PL charges.

Carrying the can for some of the 115. Grass too long !!

 

[MadchesterCity]

Has he been turfed out?

I'd forgotten we'd been charged with that one, explains why he's being forked off.

 

[superwatsonwatson]

I bet someone’s planted a seed in his head. Best of luck Lee.

 

[red 2 hats]

Wonder if he was the source of leaks coming out of the club ' the grass '
