Leeds signing Allan Clarke from us, in 1980

[Acido]

Hey lads (and yes Im asking you especially here Hopey kid, cos you do always reply to me don't you lol).

Woww, Clarkie coming back ehh in 1980, was he really the one you all wanted at that time. Especially as it seems you were all peed off with Jimmy Adamson-Out!.

He'd had a good first few years with us in the late 70s as a player-manager, and he brought us up from the 4th Division of course which we won't ever forget (although that was a few years before my time as a Tykes fan!).

But after watching these brilliant 'Wilderness years' vids on youtube, Im guessing that some fans wanted and expected a lot better than Clarkie. And that he never was good enough in the 2 years actually ?.
