Peter Clarke

[maninasuitcase]

The 'normal self' that merited a player of the season award in a good team last season?

Bring it on!:)

I think it was least worst last season. He was the only one that really stayed fit for the entire season so it was a little bit by default.

Damn! Thought you were going to say he was injured!

 

[Blueshrimper]

Clarke really was a key part of our promotion to the Championship...

Indeed, would've had no chance without him imo...:doh:...BBC journalism strikes again.

The BBC should sack its researcher, deary me.....

I bet Pete will always be proud of winning the 'Keith Dublin' trophy last season.

To be fair the BBC are probably right. He was playing for Blackpool at the time, and we took 6 points off them in our title winning season.

 

[Sandbach Shrimper]

Bit difficult for a suspended player to do that, isn't it?

He's suspended for Saturday??

 

[Angell Delight]

Let's remember that Clarkey gave us absolutely everything he had each and every time he put on a Blues shirt and for me if a player gives that to my club he absolutely deserves applause when he returns. And when he did leave he said nothing but nice things about the club.

Let's show him the respect he deserves pre and post match but more importantly in-between lets GET BEHIND THE BLUES!! We all saw Rev's column last week, we can make the difference today......

Here's to a good season!

:clap:

 

[Andyhsufc]

Great post!

 

[BrettieAngell]

Hear hear!

 

[Southampton Shrimper]

And we've got to remember him as a Southend legend for what he did at Stamford Bridge on 3 January this year!

:support:

 

[OldBlueLady]

Never any doubt in my mind - he'll get a hero's welcome I'm sure.

 

[BaileytheQuitter]

He'll get a good reception but it's now about the current team and we need every one of us behind the boys and making a hostile atmosphere for the new Huddersfield players to play in.

Come on you Blueeees!

 

[Andy_S]

Green, green and green. :clap:

 

[ldnfatso]

Clarkey deserves a warm welcome for his dignified departure but when the whistle blows and the match begins he becomes an opposition player and that is all!

Lets hope Tilly has also remembered how Clarke couldnt let someone go by him without committing ridiculous and unnecessary fouls, anywhere on the pitch. So hopefully he will play someone right up on him, and right in his face for 90 minutes.
He may have been a trier for us, but today he's just another northern *******.

 

[Shrimp Curry]

You could never question Clarkes effort but I never rated him, always looked better than he actually was due to his workrate and commitment, his positional sense and decision making was woeful. The fact that he is playing at the back for Huddersfield gives me a lot of hope today!

 

[Ayrshire Blue]

He'll get a good reception from me, Clarke conducted himself with dignity and nothing but professionalism from the moment he was put on the transfer list til the final whistle against Cheltenham.

The complete opposite to a certain Mr Bailey who hopefully we'll be seeing a bit later in the season.
