Leon Clarke

[Balham]

The two goals at the sty. First one, he out paces their defenders, scores, then runs along the touch line, staring at the pig fans who had been slagging him off, prior to the game as being "past it".

Second goal, he bulldozes his way through two of their defenders, leaving one on the deck, before scoring.

The icing on the cake would have been a hat-trick, had he converted the cross from David Brooks (with his school boy looks).

That pass from Brooks to Clarke was really poor. It came after Brooks had just destroyed Jack Hunt with that little nutmeg too.

Yep. Although everyone (rightly) celebrates Duffy's goal above all others that day, I have always found Leon's first to be just as funny.

For a start it was the exchange of "hoof!" between both sets of fans just before it. Then the Pigs hilarious attempt at defending. Leon then controlling the ball with his knob, before stroking it home and calmly strutting past the furious pigs in the Kop. All finished off with the touchline celebration.

Fleck's goal shocked them. That goal had them absolutely stunned into disbelief.

I liked Leon,never understood some supporters booing a player because he played for Wxxxxxxxy ,Richard Cresswell also got booed,they're all professionals.

Once a Blade....

He always caused problems against us, even when he played for Chesterfield in the early 2010’s. He had his critics at the Blades but he unsettled defenders and chipped in with goals.

I think he played for Bury and they beat us at BDTBL and he scored too

I remember us leading at Scunthorpe, 1-0, with about 10 minutes to go, and they brought Leon on. I turned to Mrs. G and said, keep an eye on this lad......a few minutes later he scored.

In fact his best record against us, was his time at Coventry!

Scored an absolute thunderbastard away at Port Vale in 2017 too. Glorious.
