One think I liked about DC last night was there was no dramatic fireworks after the win, just a calm, relieved demeaner with a focus on the players.
Complete contrast to that Loony Toon Agent Jones at Stoke.
Remember when they won their first game under him and he was going off like a pop rocket on the pitch... Rumour had it he got a 10ft version of the photo of him with his hands in the air plastered on the tunnel wall.
Brilliant. 
Save the fireworks for promotion

He talks in more detail about the man management of individual players than JA ever did. Comes across well in interviews. 

When he came and started having a pop at players some on here were saying his man management is shocking but i listened to what Chris Lines said about him,saying how he was the best man manager he come across,so its what happens inside the club and not just how he comes over in interviews.Personally i like him and his interviews and no matter how performances are now as long as we stay up i look forward to the summer rebuild and the start of next season when we can hopefully be in there and show him what vale fans are all about as long as the effort is there.

After the ineffectual, mild mannered, one trick pony manager we had it's so refreshing to hear a few home truths from Clarke. Our squad needed a massive "kick up the jacksy" and it appears DC has done just that.

Words are cheap but for fans to actually see a benefit from the leaders rantings is a worlds difference to what we have been accustomed to.

Passion is obvious and it was a quality Askey knew only how to spell!

At the moment he has certainly transformed Crookes and Mills plus Legge also seems to have a new lease of life... so it shows he can perform miracles maybe Theo is next

What has impressed me is clearly the defensive side which Joe has already alluded to but also he's played the much maligned 4-3-3 and got a tune out of them. 

He's not afraid of tinkering and it's working. 

Obviously tinkermen as they are called also get the criticism when it goes wrong .

Proactive substitutions and a really good tactical nous. It's definitely been work in progress after the initial struggles . 

But I know it's all irrelevant but we could possibly of had 10 points from the last 4 games . Oldham and Bolton we didn't get our just desserts did we. 

Warming to the bloke and even before these wins I liked his up front and bullish attitude. Now backing it up .

Well done Clarkey

I also noticed the Colchester commentators said that DC likes to play football the proper way in a passing style like he did when he took Walsall there,the last few games tbf have shown us this imo

Bristol fans also said the same about him and his football,its just the Walsall fans who said he was just hoofball or were they really just a bit bitter us taking him from them with ease when they were in touching distance of the play offs??
