Said it before and I know people disagree but I saw nothing in Clements last season to suggest he was anything more than a bang average League 2 player
Would be nice to have a bang average league 2 player surely......better than the bang average non league standard players we currently have in the side.

You could argue that Slade has gotten the best out of two players that he inherited and were completely written off by most. They’ve probably been two of our most consistent performers. Whilst we’ve been hit with injuries in that position.
Not that it’s done the team as a whole much good, mind.
Or you could say he has not got the best out of the players he has signed or you could say he has just signed poor players.

Quoted from 75
He really should 'try hard' as his career is at a crossroads. If he fails at Barrow (if that's where he is, I can't remember) then I doubt he will have too many Football League suitors when we release him. Although a manager change at Town may give him another opportunity.
Too true, my source said he wasn't and that was why we sent him out on loan.

Can't get in a National League side but some of our fans thought he could be our saviour. Asante was a late sub for Solihul as well
I heard Summerfield also struggled to get a place in the Macclesfield team towards the end of last season. He's looked a different player for us though this season. Clements had been playing regularly for Barrow though until the last game. I wasn't that impressed when Clements first arrived but I actually Slade got the best out of him towards the end of last season. So much so I couldn't believe we'd let him go out on loan but kept Summerfield. Summerfield has caused me to change my mind on that with some of his performances this season. Summerfield has always worked harder than Clements. It seems to me, Slade has made Summerfield more positionally and aware and to stopped him running around all over the pitch. Conversely, Slade seemed to have encourage Clements to put more of a shift in which was always his downfall. Maybe that was what the falling out was about over the Summer. That is Clements though. Sometimes good sometimes a liability. Seems he is the same at Barrow judging by these comments
Quoted from "Barrow vs Aldershot match thread"
Sounding like a different team here, All fighting for the cause & players smiling, uplifting stuff so far, Clements bossing the middle.
Quoted from "Barrow vs Macclesfield match thread"
If yusseff takes his chances different game, hall and clements struggled in midfield especially clements his work rate was non existent

Average players in an average league which is fine if John fenty hadnt promised us an "assault on the league" his words not mine when Russell slade was appointed .
The truth of it is our recruitment this year has been very poor and doesn't fit to What we was led down the garden path too, I just can't help but feel the way out our club runs it self top to bottom also adds to the anger and frustration.
I keep saying it but until we get a lottery winner or a new chairman then we are stuck like this with frustration running through us all.
