That signing came right out out of the blue for me.
Impressive capture, and as I said on another thread, a real statement of intent. |  | | |  |

Might be on a basic wage, can't see him playing pro bono |  |

Really happy with this signing. A leader on the pitch and an enforcer - just what we need. Captain material, too. |  | | |

Talking about Captain material, can we presume EEL remains Captain for this coming season. | | | |

New season, new manager so I'd expect a different captain. Hopefully | | | |

One of EEL’s issues last season was the attention he got being captain. There’s no reason to say he’ll suddenly become the player we saw in his first spell, but reducing unnecessary pressure would certainly help.
Would give Clayton the armband starting tomorrow. It’s amazing how simple acts can improve a situation |  |

Cracking signing! Expect this to create a real Rattle and Hum around town! Just hope New Years Day performance is up to standard! |  |

I'd urge anybody to watch the home game with Doncaster last season if they can. Adam Clayton played that game and I remember remarking to my friend just how little he actually moved. Infact it was so poor, I couldn't help but watch him more than the game itself.
I thought we were playing a high tempo, pressing game? Clayton simply won't be able to do that. Impressive pedigree for sure but if your legs don't allow you to run anymore.
I remember Rob Lee playing at Spotland for Wycombe when he was about 40. He couldn't run either but dictated the game from the middle of the park, we have to hope Clayton can so similar but I'd be very surprised to see him shutting people down and being in their faces. | | | |

This has the potential to be a Cavanagh type signing but also another Diagouraga. Let's hope its the former. | | | |

Most of the comments I've seen from Bradford fans are basically along the lines of - his legs have gone but will still do a job for us, good signing. |  |

Exactly my thinking. Hopefully being a couple of years younger than Diagouraga means it won't turn out the same way. |  | | |

I really hope you're right.
Personally I'm not convinced - seems a bit of a journeyman coming to the end of his career and going down the leagues and he still hasn't found what he's looking for (sorry - couldn't resist).
Still, lets see what he can do - if his legs have gone as some say, lets hope he can control the game from the midfield and help to develop the younger less experienced players. | |

I wonder if he's done (is doing) his coaching badges? | |

| Adam Clayton on 13:19 - Jul 11 with 4952 views | EllDale |
That had crossed my mind as well.
I thought it was noticeable as well how much emphasis has been made on
the positive influence and leadership that he potentially brings off the pitch.
An effort by BJ to sort out the dressing room? | | | |
