PeterStyvarsRightFoot Posted December 7, 2014 Report Share Posted December 7, 2014 Never really rated Clarkson as a centre forward, But as a Attacking Midfielder, I thought the lad was different class when fully fit, for a time I genuinely believed he was the missing link... And the one full season he did have for us, he did get into double figures so... Can't really knock him, don't know where they got 11 in63 from, he scored 6 in his first season and 11 in his second... Also created about 10-15 in that season for pitman and stead!!!

I can't remember him hitting double figures. 7 or 8 at best from my recollection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nogbad the Bad Posted December 7, 2014 Report Share Posted December 7, 2014 Are you sure? I can't remember him hitting double figures. 7 or 8 at best from my recollection Wiki has Clarkson down as 11 in total, best season 7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron-Bcfc Posted December 7, 2014 Report Share Posted December 7, 2014 Wiki has Clarkson down as 11 in total, best season 7. And Soccerbase, who are very reliable. I'm also pretty sure he never reached double figures Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One BCFC Posted December 7, 2014 Report Share Posted December 7, 2014 He was one of GJs worst signings by far and for 800k what a joke! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterStyvarsRightFoot Posted December 7, 2014 Report Share Posted December 7, 2014 Just looked it up, few were crosses that others got on the end of, always thought he hit 10 in one season under Millen?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Red Rich Posted December 7, 2014 Report Share Posted December 7, 2014 Frustrating that we could have got Ross McCormack for similar or less... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrahamC Posted December 7, 2014 Report Share Posted December 7, 2014 Dreadful. No pace, no strength and poor in the air. His only asset was that he tried but any of us would have done that. It just sums up how piss poor the SPL is that a bloke who wasn't prolific in the fourth level in England last season is doing so at the top level North of the border.

I always thought there were some decent teams in the Scottish prem, and the league was unfairly critisised, but that truly shows how awful Scottish league football really is!

I'd certainly make us strong favourites for second place in the SPL if we were in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
