Well,he's better than Robles that's for bloody sure!...you don't manage over 950 games at a level a lot higher than ours then sign a dog sh!te player for no reason at all!...( For the record, I'm not insinuating Clarks us god sh!te btw)
Holloway knows a player and what he can bring to a squad, I have absolute trust in his decision making and he obviously has something in mind bringing Clarke into the building.
He's not been brought in for his goal scoring ability, Clarke's stats back that up, he must have qualities that Holloway has already identified that we are lacking ...
Personally, I'm thinking he's been brought in to be more of a play maker...but then again, I'm an hairy ar$ed fitter, not a football manager , so I'll trust Holloway's judgement on this one..

Tony Rees wasn't prolific in front of goal, but what a player he was. We scored many goals with him at centre forward. We scored for fun with him holding up the ball and laying it off.

Neil Woods too, even Livvo - but they brought so much to the team.

Quoted from fishboyUTM
Let’s see if he can maintain his goal scoring record of 5.39 every season. May drop now due to his age. What a shite signing.


Maybe you and your cronies can boo him before the game, instead of just after!!!! When Rose scored the other day I was sure he was looking for you to thank and not Dave Moore.

I don’t understand the reference to him being 32 years old. Vardy is also 32 and very sharp and full of energy this season.  One reporter made him the best player so far this season.

We need to wait to pass judgement,

Only turned 32 a few days ago, played above our level his whole career, none of his ex clubs fans seem to have a bad word to say about him, left Plymouth for family reasons and he’s been signed by the experienced Ian Holloway.

Yet some of the spotty champ manager brigade are not happy because he hasn’t got a record of one in two, even though they haven’t got a clue what his best position/role is.

Welcome, Billy.

Aye, Jack Lester too (I know he scored a load later in his career, but his record for us wasn't great)

Let's hope Diane Abbott doesn't sign or we'll be playing 4-4-62


How does FFP allow for a magic money tree  


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'
