Clarks' post match interviewsummed up and illustrated the complete contrast between he and our former manager.
Clark talked about raising the expectation level, raising the bar, improving the quality etc - i.e. positive, onwards and upwards, positive outlook and requiring the players to respond to that and keep pushing the level higher.
Compared to the turnip school of thought - moaning about how everything was the same as last season except one or two signings he'd made and a huge increase in the fans' expectation level.
Perhaps easier for clark given the expectations of this season were nil after 16 games of ternent, but the outlook could not be more contrasting. It really is chalk and cheese ;D

I also like how Clarke doesn't castigate the players in his interview. He said today that "what was said in the dressing room stays between me and the players", which is an excellent line to follow. He also doesn't mouth off about the referee, even though we've had our fair share of idiots!
Very professional!

I also like how Clarke did blame the crowd, floodlights, grass, weather, stadium, pitch, colour of swindons kit and the smell of their centre halfs farts for our mediocre first half performance. The difference between the same squad of players (minus Flynn and Dickinson) is unreal!! UTT |
