A Leeds United Player Profile: Allan "Sniffer" Clarke

[theyorkshirewhites]

Opposing fans used to call him The Twig.

Was that because of his build or because he knew how to " Stick ", the ball in the net?

a world class striker. what a legend, and what an understanding with the much under-rated Mick Jones.

I've looked at a lot of Leeds videos..and some of the football is breathtaking..individual skill neat passing and superb finishing..like Clarke..but all I hear about this Leeds team is " Dirty Leeds "....are they blind or just jealous because Leeds had a brilliant team?

Quite sad really...they'll never get the respect they deserved..every one was an international..surely that means something?

MOT.

good video, sometimes not mentioned enough

He was surprising fast on the ball for a guy had quite a gangly build. Shows quite a burst of pace at 0:58.

Yes Clarke..good player very thin and looked weak, but made up for it with guile and ablility, underated player. cannot recall him being hacked down by Harris et al, so in hindsight was quite durable.
