Tord31 Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Thought it was looking very likely he would leave but given he has bought a house and his wife is picking up regular work he could be a surprise candidate to pull a Mackie/Langfield and sign anything put in front of him. I think I would lean towards moving him on with our best wishes given we already have McGinn, Vernon and McManus for next season Link to comment
Byrne Baby Byrne Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Can some kind of arrangement be made that we only pay his wages during Scottish Cup weeks? 1 Link to comment
snoyl Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Twist! He seems to score in cup games but the rest of his general game play is pretty shite. I say pretty but more like bad! Not sure if a run of games will get him back upto "speed" but unless he proves that in the next few games...... Link to comment
ollie1903 Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Unequivocal twist. He makes my eyes bleed when I watch him lumber around a pitch. Link to comment
paddy Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Twist, we can find better. Link to comment
vanderark14 Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 twist injured too much for a start and scoring a few important scottish cup goals is not enough wages need to be used on a better forward player Link to comment
tup Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 He should have played from the start on Saturday against Hearts. We were much more effective after his introduction. Link to comment
RUL Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Agree with tup, it's not like we are over loaded with great forwards. What does his wife do? Link to comment
DandyDon KD Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 He is to slow, old and is generally crap. move him on. Link to comment
tup Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 He's twice won us the game at Fir Park in Scottish cup ties this calendar year. For that alone he deserves all the praise going. I think he can be the matchwinner in the next round as well. Link to comment
robbojunior Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 why are my posts being deleted? The mods have just installed the Deluded Filter Link to comment
tup Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 why are my posts being deleted? Stop talking pish and I'll think about leaving them up It is Christmas after all. Link to comment
V for Vendetta Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 I can see him having a wee purple patch of about 3 or 4 games at some point during the season but otherwise he just doesn't do near enough. We need to keep consolidating and improving the squad with good management of contracts etc. For me he'd be one that could be "cut" to allow others to come in. Along with Clark. Link to comment
sheepiekev Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Nothing against him, he seems a decent enough bloke, but I'd let him go. I'd release Fallon, Magginson and sign a new striker with the wages freed up. Link to comment
sheepiekev Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Unequivocal twist. He makes my eyes bleed when I watch him lumber around a pitch. Is that the equivalent of sitting on 20 and still twisting? Link to comment
ollie1903 Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Nice guy, gives up a lot of his own time to train the young age groups. But just doesn't have it where it counts, on the pitch. 1 Link to comment
tup Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 He is a sound bloke, he always takes the time to sign autographs etc and have a quick chat where others will walk on by. He's nowhere near as bad as you like to make out he is ollie. Link to comment

tup Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 I think I'll form my own opinion thanks. Which has it's basis in an irrational dislike, much like a lot of the criticism aimed at some other players we have or did have over the years. He has his uses is all I'm saying, your rhetoric suggests he's useless. Link to comment
diamondsr4ever Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 half his wages, give him a year extension. Link to comment
Geoff_Tipps Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 He's no worse than Vernon. Link to comment

Unfortunately, Clark is contracted for another year, so he wont be going anywhere. Link to comment

Most definitely not useless, as his finish last night proves, but his overall contribution to the team over a sustained period far outweighs his uses. It's no irrational dislike of him as a person as I really admire him for the work he does behind the scenes. 2 Link to comment
tup Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Good. I say we keep him as he enjoys playing for us and he contributes far more than the likes of Mackie ever did, on and off the field. Link to comment
vanderark14 Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 He's no worse than Vernon. Link to comment
tup Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Vernon has been garbage recently. Link to comment
