Lee Praises Tigers Fans
Posted 23/12/06

Lee Dicken has thrown his hat in the ring for the remaining slot in the 2007 Tigers side - praising the Glasgow support as he did so.

The promotion will no doubt be considering Lee as one of their options for the 3 point berth and the popular Yorkshireman has stated he would like to be considered. However he will face competition from young up and coming riders for the slot.

Comments attributed to Lee in the Sun today state:-

I didn't have a very positive season as far as performances go but as far as anything else it was brilliant.
The only downside to riding at Glasgow was the traveling but you can cope with that.
They stuck by me 100% and that's something I haven't always had throughout my career. At one stage I gave them the option of sacking me and replacing me with someone else. I said I was going to retire as I was letting the team down but the promoters had a meeting and said they wanted me to stick with it.
I'd like to be given the chance to repay all that. It would be very nice if I got the chance to go back and even nicer to pull it out of the bag and turn things around.
Glasgow is where I want to be. The amazing thing was the crowd stuck behind me. I can look back over my career and normally when I've put in performances like I did last year the fans have been on my back.
But at Glasgow they were fantastic. For support it was the best club I've ever had and if I get the chance I will be determined to take it.
