"I met Lee when I was 5 years of age and he coached me until I was 7, when he introduced me to Manchester United. I represented United in every age group, played all over the world and also played for England U20’s. I made my professional debut aged 21 against Crystal Palace, scored and was named Man of the Match. I can honestly say the way Lee taught me how to play football will always be with me, and I will always be grateful to him."

"Lee signed Joe as an U9 and recognised Joe’s high level ability and played him up one and sometimes, two age groups, so that Joe trained/played at his correct challenge point. Lee greatly helped Joe to develop." (Joe Bauress' father)

"Lee from day one at Burnley FC always took care of Dan and developed him unlike any other coach. I believe this to be a major factor in Dan signing for Manchester United and progressing to the international level with England." (Dan Gore's father)

"Lee coached me from a very young age and how he developed me ensured that I could cope and be successful in the professional game, not just technically and physically but psychologically too."

"Without Lee's coaching I would not have achieved a professional career in the game. Not only is Lee a top coach with vast experience, but he cares about you as an individual person, and that is a rarity in the game."

"I was personally coached by Lee who utilised a truly unique and individualised player development programme. Lee's knowledge and enthusiasm for developing each individual player is unsurpassed."

"I was coached by Lee from a very young age and remember his sessions were always intense, quick and game-based. His style of coaching was always about you as an individual. Now I’m playing in the USA division 1 college league, I can look back and honestly say that what Lee taught me has helped me to be successful."

"Lee has really helped me become a more confident person and footballer. I have achieved so much more in the past year, than I would've imagined, with Lee's guidance and experience."

"Lee has helped me in a remarkable way on and off the football pitch. He has not only helped me elevate my game to a new level, Lee has encouraged me to be a confident and independent person guiding me to achieve any goals I place upon myself. Without his mentoring I wouldn't have been able to achieve goals that I thought were beyond impossible."

"Lee is an excellent mentor and world class professional coach/player developer. His guidance has led to a significant change in my attitude and career goals. It's led me in a positive way. It's helped me focus and be determined to achieve my goals.

Without Lee my football wouldn't be where it is today."
