Clarke enjoying Quakers stint

04 Sep 2008 - 07:14:47

Darlington's loan striker Billy Clarke is enjoying life with the Quakers, having scored five goals in six games this season.

Four of Clarke's strikes came in the 6-0 thrashing of Macclesfield Town and the 20-year-old Ipswich Town frontman is pleased to have found form so quickly.

He told the Northern Echo: "Obviously you want to play as a high a level as you can but I spoke to the manager, Dave Penney, and after that I was interested in coming.

"It has paid off and things are going very well. I've extended my loan until January which obviously means I am enjoying it and playing games which is what I need.

"The objective of the loan is that I go out and play games and score goals, but they've got good players back in Ipswich, so I'm not sure I'll be missed really.

"Hopefully I can stay here, do my loan and get as many goals as I can."

  i find it alarming that the manager can spout off to the press about how sick he is about the class player i.e Abbott always being injured when he signed him for 100.% AND HE WAS INJURED YET AGAIN ! at the time We are onto game 6 and yet again are relying on loan players We will end up with 38 players appearing this season and if they wore masks you would nt know who was playing For gods sake get a regular 20 players who the crowd recognize
