Strange how fate works. I'd argue Albion haven't been the same team since that implosion at Reading in January 2013 under Clarke when we were flying in the league and 2-0 up with 10 minutes to go and lost 3-2 against a team who was bottom of the league. The club on and off the field has been a shambles ever since.
Thought Clarke flattered to deceive tbh. He inherited a top 10 side + Lukaku and Ashworth running the show behind the scenes. Once he lost both of those he had absolutely no idea how to turn it around and the style of play got progressively worse as he became more and more afraid of losing (a bit like someone else we know).
It's a good fit for him given Reading have a similar structure to us I think with the DoF. Nonetheless I'd be surprised if he managed (or head coached) in the top flight in the near future.
