and live on Freeview channel 276
Lee will be no stranger to the Pools faithful having began his career at the Suit Direct Stadium as a player where he spent eight years before moving on to have spells with Sheffield Wednesday, Doncaster Rovers and Bradford City.
Lee joins Pools following a spell as Middlesbrough’s U23’s coach and arrives alongside his assistant Michael Nelson and Lee Turnbull, who has joined in a consulting capacity to lead the club’s scouting and recruitment.

@Davidjrj123: Spike, Nelse and Sweens all back at the Vic that's what dreams are made of. If they can't motivate you to play for Hartlepool United then nobody can!
@Shakyshakes1980: These two are good lads and wish them absolutely all the best. Hopefully they’ll be given the tools to succeed as big work is needed in January particularly. Welcome back to Pools @mnelse6 and @5spike
@StellingRobbie: I have quite a good feeling about this appointment. Knows the area and the football culture, hopefully some contacts at Boro, seems like a good man, young and exciting. Might not have been who we expected but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. Let’s all get right behind him!
