    I'm disappointed. I liked Clarke but he's now 31, struggled at Charlton and isn't the out and out goalscorer we needed.

    Welcome home Billy l, far better than anything we currently have on the bench.

    An improvement on what we currently have, and he likes it here so a welcome return in my eyes.

    Trust that Hopkin believes this is the type of player we need, but I really don't see it.

    He's not all that bad of a signing really, I think at the very least you can say he's a player that really wants to be here.
    Considering our position I wouldn't be turning up my nose at a player like him.

    Well that wasn't worth waiting for.

    1 goal since leaving us.....and went most part of 2nd half of his last season with us hardly scoring

    Billy Clarke is not what we need. They've had all month to find a striker that will help with the problems we've had. Who's going to win a long ball in our team because sure as hell Doyle isn't. We have Payne, Clarke is a a pointless signing

    Not sure about this signing, he does not offer any different options in team formation. Maybe he could play along Ball and Payne in a upfront role.

    I agree. We’re in a relegation place not pushing for the playoffs. He can add something different and the bench looks stronger. Would still like a target man option in addition.

    Did they still owe us money from when they signed him?

    I really liked Billy Clarke but we need an out and out striker...
