[bobby smith]

Remember that well, Mullers put him on as sub with pretty clear instructions what to do, within 5mins you could hear the CRACK all round the Goldstone :-(

Having re-read this, is this maybe a lesser known Paul Clarke that was on our books during the period mentioned ??

Nope, not in the first team anyway...

One of the nastiest moments I've had at a football match, it was just a very hard tackle and I heard the leg break and I think most of the crowd could too. Grim.

Ooh me too. M<akes me tighten everything up just thinking about it.

And it happened during one of thos moments when the whole crowd has gone quiet too, so you could hear the leg SNAP

Agree. I was 16/17 when watching him with Teddy Maybank and I am a year older than him according to the report.

Reading that I don't think it's the same 'Paul Clark'. He's too young for one thing; it says he's 44, which means he was playing for us when he was about eleven!

According to this link he was born in 1946 which would make him early to mid 30s when he played for us and 65 now - same era as Wardy, Horton etc. Sounds about right?

Awesome. He was immense that day - 1976?

Can't be the same Paul Clarke, he's older than me I'm sure and I'm 56. Great player uncompromising, I remember him hitting a thunderous goal at Brisbane Road on my birthday (think it was my 18th). Scored a cracker against Spurs in the three one defeat of same, the day that Spurs fans showed how sporting they are when their side is being played off the park by causing several pitch invasions which forced us to put up the same sort of fences which ended up killing so many at Hillsborough.

Nothing like right, that would make him 31 when he signed for us& if I remember rightly he was pretty young - maybe 19 ,20 or 21.

*Just checked on wiki , they say he was born in 1958 - so 19 when he signed.

totally agree nobody knows how to block tackle now and if they did they would become a marked man especially by the refs

remember Paul Clark bloody right I do ...................you always knew that if he was playing you had a fighting chance

Souness, Giles, Bremner, Case. There seemed to be some talented performers at that time, who were also f***ing hard players. Midfielders who could do everything to the highest level.
