I mean, lost the plot, certainly. And he absolutely lost the board, entirely justifiably, but I don't recall anyone really suggesting he lost the players. Picked the wrong ones in the wrong places, again that's a yes.
Royalp-we suggest the players were miserable under Clarke 10 posts up in this thread.. And I believe I have read posts like this on many occasions.
What I took away from my conversation with (one) player was that the players (it seemed not just to be his opinion) respected Clarke and thought he was doing a good job.
Fair enough, I hadn't seen many people suggest it, but given p-we's recent track record with signings I'd be had pressed to say he has no credibility.
Still not sure how a player can think that 1 win in 8, or whatever it was, was a good job. I'm not surprised they'd be totally indifferent to him talking to Fulham though.
Oh he certainly has more credibility than me. I mean I could be making this whole thing up! I reckon it was injuries that undid him.
We seem to be getting more balanced but as many have pointed out people have been saying that the last 3 summers.
