Time does move though Nice pose Clement has been in trouble with the police I believe - cant think what it is specifically
Hasn't he just recently being banned from Horse Racing for 10 years? Breaching the horse racing rules apparently
I really cannot believe Stelios Giannakopoulos has been omitted from this list - what an inspirational signing he was!! (Now president of the Greek PFA if Wikipedia is to be believed) Although I'd actually forgotten about Neil Clement until I watched the 2007/08 Promotion DVDs a couple of weeks back. He actually was decent for the few games he played.
