Hooray!!

I always felt that Clingan played to the level he thought was necessary in a poor team - ie we didn't get 100% out of him every match. I'm pretty certain the Fulham rumours went to his head a bit - he already saw his escape hatch. And he ends up at Coventry. He was the best player in a poor team, but that doesn't make him a great player. And if he doesn't want to play for us and we can make some money - well f.o. then
