As far as I remember it, the fitness coach was just chatting to him as they walked off and then Clarke started throwing a strop.

Not any of that really, but to have had so many clubs in such a short space of time means that there is something wrong with his attitude & pretty much that makes him a cunt. Anybody who has a chance at being a pro footballer should be grateful for it but he just seems to throw his toys out of the pram everytime it doesn't go his way. He always seems to move to a new club after a falling out with the manager, the only constant in this is him.

18 transfers in a modern 12 year professional career would suggest, to me, that he might not be the easiest footballer to deal with. They can't be all hard luck stories.
But Leon Clarke isn't someone I hate.

Depends on what he was saying though doesn't it? If it was just a 'chat', why throw a strop? As for having a lot of Clubs, that's hardly worthy of 'cunt' status is it? And any way, Town fans had already bestowed that title on him before he'd even left us and that was about 6 Clubs ago. Jon Obika has had his fair share of Clubs, does that make him a cunt?

I agree. But does that warrant him being called the 'C' word? That's all I'm asking really - He's not done anything to us as far as I can tell. John McGinley for example, I can understand...

Aye. It was an unwanted incident during a time when Town weren't exactly nailing League Two.
He left, we got better. It was unrelated. Hooray.

Of course. I suppose the answer to my question which I knew all along really, is... "He just is" ![Doh](//thetownend.com/Smileys/tefsmile/doh.gif)

Didn't he say something like he'll refuse to do any running in training the next day and it all kicked off from there. Before he signed I seem to remember QPR and Sheffield Wednesday fans warning us about his attitude as well.

Sorry if this has been posted before but Alan Mac is back at the club, working with the under-16's as a development coach . . . don't know if it is full time.

Oooh! I just remembered - I saw Rafa De Vita on the SPL highlights the other day. Scored a corker for Ross County in a 3-2 win v Motherwell. No surprise he ended up back up there I suppose, must be quite well known round those parts.
