DEFENDER

1989/90 APPEARANCES: 16

An ever-present in the side during the 1988/89 campaign, defender Lee Rogers had his playing-time limited in the title winning campaign due to the form of Jim McNichol.

However, the defender still made 16 appearances for Terry Cooper’s side and was an example of what good strength in depth the manager had, especially in defence.

Rogers started his career with local club, Bristol City, and after being an apprentice, he signed a full contract in December 1984 and went on to feature in 30 league games for the Ashton Gate club.

The following season saw him sustain a broken leg in a reserve team match at Torquay United, and he was out of action until the start of the 1986/87 season. 

Lee had loan spells with Hereford United in March 1987, and with York City in December 1987, before signing on a free transfer for City in June 1988.

He then played for City until 1991, when he joined Gloucester City on a free transfer and spent a further two seasons there.
