Lee Anthony Peacock (born 9 October 1976) is a Scottish former professional footballer and current Assistant Manager at Plymouth Parkway F.C.
Having started his professional career with Carlisle United he joined Mansfield Town in 1997 before earning a move to Manchester City two years later.
Born in Paisley,[1] Peacock progressed through the youth team setup at Carlisle United and made his debut during the 1994–95 season under Mick Wadsworth.
However Peacock would only make 10 appearances in all competitions during the 1999–2000 season and eventually he was transfer listed by Royle and departed only 10 months after signing for the Maine Road club.
In his final season at Ashton Gate the club secured a Play-Off place within the Second Division and after defeating Hartlepool United in the semi-final, City lost 1–0 at the Millennium Stadium against Brighton & Hove Albion.
Despite only scoring one more goal during the rest of the campaign, his honest, hard-working attitude made him a firm favourite with the Town fans almost immediately.
Despite a knee injury picked up at Colchester United in mid-March, he attempted to play through the pain barrier – until hobbling off just before half-time in a match against Swansea City on 11 April.
By now, it was obvious that Peacock needed surgery, but he decided to take a role described by Onuora as "super sub" – making two further cameo appearances in the following two matches.
Peacock went under the knife at the end of Swindon relegation season but returned successfully and was the Town's top goalscorer by October, before being switched to a midfield role.
