I personally think a few on this thread should publicly apologise for their comments.

He has acquitted himself very well this season so far and deserves an apology

I was one who could not believe we signed Craig. I am pleased to hear fans supporting him. Like it or not he is one of ours now. I hope he develops into a good player for us.

Was surprised when he signed but if he keeps proving me and others wrong then that's great. Well done Craig, long may it continue.

He's been poor in the two games I've seen him (Brizzle and Dover), but the so was MacDonald in his first few games last season. I'm coming up to BP today in the hope of being wrong about Clay, I'd be more than happy to see him repeat what sounds like a decent performance on Saturday.


Batch, Crombie, Moore K, Wiggington, Cumming, Waters, Bonnyman, Ford, Emson, Drinkell, Whymark. Love you all, You are the reason I'm on here. You've had help from Todd, Handyside, Futcher P, Groves, Mendonca, Macca etc etc etc. Up The Mariners!!!!!!!!!

Same although he's not proved anything yet! Hope he carries on with this progression.

I was a bit worried about some of the opinions of Clay when he was on trial. So when he was signed i thought it may have been a bit of a panic signing.

The first couple of games i thought we was a bit anonymous and did give the ball away cheaply at times. That said i did think he was a lot better in the 2nd half against Dover. Was more involved and appears to have continued that against Gateshead.

like a previous poster said he may not be the type to dominate and dictate a game but he keeps it simple. Not a bad thing imo. He works very hard on and off the ball. Closes players down (something that has been lacking in our midfield) keeps the ball moving and gives it to the more creative ones.

He is still quite young and can keep getting better. You have to remember he has joined a new club and it can take a while to fully settle in so hopefully there is more to come.

He was signed as mainly cover but if he keeps performing will give PH some selection headaches.

Anyway he will only get better with our support so lets get behind him and the rest of the team. I will always root for the grafters and guys who give everything regardless of ability. Young Clay may well turn out to be a good signing for us.

Thought Clay did well in the pre-season against Sunderland so let's hope it continues.

Seems to be growing every game, at this rate PH will have selection headaches. Another player who has stepped up and delivered.

Well done Craig on your performances in the last two games and taking your two goals today.

Was shocked at the negativity when we signed him, but admitted to be a bit unsure of him. Didn't see him today but by all accounts and 2 goals he did very well today. Thought he was excellent against Gateshead full of energy and while Brown and Paddy shone, he provided the cover to allow them to be more attacking. So chuffed for him after the poor reaction, may he continue to prove those doubters and ppl like myself wrong!

Clay's first goal today was exquisite!


The aim of argument or discussion should not be victory but progress.
