A look back at Lee Tomlin’s most memorable moments in a Bristol City shirt in pictures

Lee Tomlin was forced to call time on his 17-year playing career because of injury.

The 33-year-old had hoped to play football as long as possible and was signed with Doncaster Rovers for the season, but a few months into his stint at the Keepmoat Stadium, he has hung up the boots.

Doncaster supporters never saw the very best of Tomlin, but fans of his other clubs will have their own memories to share about a player who was unplayable on his best day.

He turned out for the likes of Peterborough United, Cardiff City, Nottingham Forest and AFC Bournemouth, who will have spoken about him in a positive light.

At Bristol City, there is a split opinion on him, as a result of him making the controversial move across the Severn Bridge to join rivals Cardiff.

Tomlin had struggled at Bournemouth for game time and was loaned to City in January 2016, where he was able to recapture his form.

Six goals in 18 league appearances was enough to persuade Lee Johnson and the City hierarchy to sign him on a permanent deal in the summer.

He delivered the same goals return but became more of a team player by improving on his assists return, as he helped City to a 17th-placed finish, one position higher than the season he had before.

Just as it looked like City would be beginning to put together a team capable of challenging for promotion with the arrival of Famara Diedhiou, they were rocked by the departure of Tomlin.

It was a major frustration as Tomlin was a pivotal part of Lee Johnson's side, but he would end up missing out on an EFL Cup run, as well as City's highest placed finish.

Despite his time at Ashton Gate only being a year-and-a-half, there were plenty of moments in Tomlin's City career to remember, here's some of his best moments.
