Does anyone else think that Phil Clarke just gets better and better on sky each week?

I dislike him and I find that hard given he played for Wigan. I think he loves himself and is only interested in himself. Not sure if the comment re Dean Bell was in jest or a barbed slur. Bell said some very negative things about clarke in his autobiography.

He and Bell are best of friends and always seem to get along well whenever I see them at Wigan matches.

Bell did use to say things like that, so did Edwards and Gregory!!

He may look like he loves himself, but what a player in his day.

He's an Aspuller...

I like him, obivously he hasnt got the presenter's touch yet but he's doing the donkey work at the moment for SKY, perhaps replacing eddie or stevo in a decade or so... or move onto other media activities.

Anyoe see what he did to Wigan fans when he was on camera, when we shouted "Clarkey, give us a wave.. clarkey clarkey give us a wave!"??? was funny.

To be fair to him, all RL Fans know he is Wigan through and through, yet he does have the respect of other RL Club fans who dont give him too much stick.

Clarkey is amazing! You can tell that hes a wiganer, never says one wrong word about the club (he still believes we can get into the top 6!!!!!) I would of loved to see Clarkey on boots and all last week when Stevo said everyone wants wigan to go down.
