" LEE TOMLIN SIGNS NEW CONTRACT "

Fri Jan 10, 2020 6:04 pm

Cardiff City FC are delighted to announce that Lee Tomlin has signed a new contract.


Friday 10th January 2019


The 30-year old playmaker’s new agreement will see him remain at Cardiff City Stadium until the summer of 2022.

‘Tommo’ is a firm favourite with the City support. He has netted four times and assisted on five occasions in seventeen appearances in 2019/20.

Speaking about his new deal in the Welsh capital, Lee said: “I’m absolutely buzzing to get it done and dusted. Now I can kick on.

“The fans stuck by me, no matter what and I’m starting to repay them. I think that’s why I had no intention of going anywhere else, because for me they’ve been unbelievable. Every time I start a game and you go out at home it brings a smile and a shiver down my spine. I just want to do well for them as well.

“I can’t wait for Sunday now. At the away game I had a problem and couldn’t play, and the lads joked that I was scared. I’m not about all that. I don’t care who it is against. I’m looking forward to it. I definitely want to win!”

Cardiff City FC manager Neil Harris gave his thoughts on Lee’s new contract, adding: “It’s important to add players to a group in any window if you can, but sometimes the best business you do can be done internally. Lee Tomlin committing his future to the club is really key to us moving forward; he’s been a huge part of the positive dynamic since I’ve come in and is integral to the way we want to play. It’s not just about his ability to score and create goals, but also his work ethic; he’s an infectious character who has done really well.

“It was key that we tied Lee down to a longer-term deal as he approached the final months of his contract. I’d like to thank Tan Sri Vincent and the Board for their working in getting this done and we’re all looking forward to working with Lee over the coming seasons.”

Massive relief seeing it flash up on Facebook especially after seeing his Insta tag in Leicester buying his new Lambo I thought he may have been speaking to LCFC as a possible replacement for Madison who is getting a lot of interest from OT...

Got to hand it to Lee Tomlin, many of us had written him off while the last Manager was with us.

But he's come back with a bang and been easily our beat player under Neil Harris.

Fantastic news to get him tied down to a new contract.

Great news on Lee Tomlin and two fingers up to a few who (for some odd reason) appeared not to want it!

Sadly, Victor Camarasa ain't coming back this transfer window! :cry:

No way did you think Tomlin was going to Leicester surely

Re: " LEE TOMLIN SIGNS NEW CONTRACT "

Camarasa was never coming here so no point being disappointed about something that was never on the cards

You thought there was a possibility Leicester might have made any contact over Tomlin... honestly thought that was even possible?

Wouldn’t have to be done through the club as he was into last 6 months and could have signed on a free....

It’s more the fact you think Leicester (a club in champions league contention) would consider Lee Tomlin. Not having a dig but come on

Harris may not have but that's not the whole story and I can just say that Victor Camarasa won't be coming back in this window

Genuinely sorry I can't say more at this point but I have my reasons

Re: " LEE TOMLIN SIGNS NEW CONTRACT "

Fri Jan 10, 2020 9:20 pm

Camarasa was never coming don’t need to have any more knowledge on the subject than that

Re: " LEE TOMLIN SIGNS NEW CONTRACT "

Good news. At least we’ll have the best player on the pitch on Sunday. Sadly I’m not sure about our other 10 ;) :bluebird: :ayatollah:

You believe (as usual) what you want but that comment alone goes to show EXACTLY how little you truly know, fella ;)
