slystallone Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 (edited) Yep - saw that on the OS piece on LJ's press conference. Said he's training with them only so far though; so it might not be quite the 'done deal' yet. All power to Cliff though, he clearly just wants to continue playing; wherever that may be. Fair play - honest and hard working pro from the looks of it, but - that said, I do agree with LJ and him not wanting Cliff in the side. His lack of pace is pretty severe; imagine that lad from Coventry; Wilson (?) up against Cliff? It'd be like a foot race between a Grandma and Usain Bolt...

BP1960 Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 (edited) Must be far more outs now than ins during the last month or so leaving SC to splash the cash on a big signing or two? Edited January 13, 2014 by BP1960 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got the nous to make up for the lack of pace. I thought it was a mistake letting him go out early this season but, defence has been our strongest area and I assume Scunthorpe have been paying some or all of his wages as will Ross County if it's a loan again. A shame it hasn't worked out for him here, he would have been a club stalwart in different times under different circumstances. Age shouldn't really affect his game so someone else should get a good few years out of him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stargazer Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Good luck to Cliff. A true professional .....and I doubt he and few others will forget (with the one exception for his goal), the outstanding performance he put up against Luis Suarez last January.

OneSizeFitz Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Echo the sentiments above. In his time here, Cliff's conducted himself with the utmost decorum and professionalism. The period post the sacking of Dickov's backroom staff last December he stepped up to the plate in a coaching capacity, alongside his role as a player, and helped drag the club through what was undoubtedly a tricky spell. Although he was never necessarily the most technically gifted player, he always gave 100%, and I suspect his experience and influence on the younger players will be sorely missed. All the best, Cliff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
