Lancashire League: Aussie Lee set for Enfield return

The Lancashire Evening Telegraph

Shane Lee could be back as professional at Enfield next summer.

The Australian all-rounder, who helped the Dill Hall Lane club finish third in the Lancashire League in 1997, has been targeted for a return.

And that would be a popular move among both players and supporters.

Enfield official John Hargreaves declined to comment on the situation and would only say: "We are in negotiations with a player and hope to have a contract back in the not too distant future when we will make an announcement."

But it is understood that Lee, a former Lancashire Evening Telegraph columnist, is definitely the man they want to succeed last summer's professional Otis Gibson.

In his first season with Enfield, Lee scored more than 800 league runs (average 44.56) and took 67 wickets (16.01).
