FUEL ON THE FIRE

THE COLIN LEE RUMOURS CONTINUE TO CIRCULATE. THE SUN REPORTS THAT PLYMOUTH ARE READY TO MAKE A MOVE.

According to the Sun Lee has told friends he has taken the club as far as he can. The Walsall boss will look to leave as soon as safety is assured

The story also quotes Lee as saying..

" I've an understanding with the owner Jeff Bonser if any club comes in for me Walsall have to tell me, and likewise if anyone phoned me I'd tell the owner - but I've heard nothing yet"

Just how much you believe this report is up to you, but  take a look at what Colin has been saying this week...

Saturday 3rd April
While talking about contracts for next season Lee said..."it's difficult when your finances are restricted."  Colin is clearly frustrated with the budget.

Monday 5th April
Colin also spoke to the BBC about his own future next season...."What happens next year who knows, but this year's vitally important for this football club - I'm going to see that job through to the best of my ability."

Wednesday 7th April
Two days later and he added "It's been a nightmare trying to run the club without any distraction."

Friday 9th April
Then on Friday he spoke about the task ahead..."I've always said that keeping a team like Walsall in the First Division is a bigger job than getting promotion from the Second Division, This season has been very difficult and very tiring, but if we can come out of that with First Division safety it would probably be the biggest achievement of my career as a manager."

Are these the words of a man who  looks like he will be here next season? Is this adding two and two together to make 5?

Either way, 83% of fans who took part in a recent TSFC poll want Colin Lee to remain as manager.
