He posted these predictions to start a debate and get everybody talking.

What is everybody doing ?

Not so daft Eh !

Very true.

You would - but he'd only be a fan.

If however, you had the experience and knowledge of the game that Phil has you might treat it with a bit of respect. Same as if a bloke in the pub down the road offered his views on the middle east you'd laugh but if Barack Obama offered his view you'd listen with respect.

It's possible that some folk on here think a little too much of their own opinion and need to give a little respect to someone who has earned the right.

Whatever Phil Clarke thinks there'll be more than likely a bloody graph to go with it. Jesus this mons embarrassing, He'd make dust look interesting on a graph!!!!

He may have more experience and knowledge of the game but he isn't foolproof. Didn't he once predict a glittering international career for Ricky Sheriffe? Re respecting his opinion, I certainly didn't call him an idiot or agree with anyone who did. I too have met Mr Clarke on a few occasions and he's obviously an intelligent man.

I stand corrected. Not very respectful, though, was it?
