    Best of luck to him.

    An aside.... Seriously... For all the money we haemorrhage out... A proof reader would be a wonderful investment.

    He speaks well.

    He just needs to win his opening game 7-0 now.

    Cancelled his holidays to get started! If he's as good at managing as he talks, should be good!

    Calls for him to be sacked if we're not 4 up at half time.

    Hes the type most of us wanted, L1 experience
    play off experience and a man management style of fitness and assertive play that we love.

    Lets hope the board back him and we do our bit to support him. we may need to be patient as the quality in the squad is a bit lacking but all we as fans ask is that the team try their best and leave it all on the pitch..give us that mate and well follow ya...COYR

    Only been here 2 minutes and we are already changing his job title. Wait until @SuperTyke catches up with the mistake.

    Given the fact he goes in and moves on the majority of a squad in a summer, you would hope the board have factored that in their thought process because if he doesn’t think the players are right they should be expecting him to want to move most on.
    Could be an interesting Summer

    Hey look, all joking aside, and ignoring the disappointing and 'underwhelming' comments.
    I think this is possibly one of the better options that we had. Ok yeah I/we are still looking for improvements from the owners, regarding backing the coach/manager a lot more, and better communications with us as fans as well.
    But that at the moment, is for another time. Now let's hope Clarke will enjoy getting to work with the remaining squad players (when they all get back from holidays). :)

    True but I’d hope we are talking to free agents now/soon and he is part of that.

    Wiki suggests he leads intense coaching sessions which suggests, just like Michael Duff, he's old school.
