I was bemused by that post. I'd forgotten he was at County - I was talking about his move to Plymouth where Peter Reid had raved about him. It wasn't extended due to them being in administration, hence the reason he went to Notts County.

It's never a good sign for a player when Kingdom is bemused.

Starting to think CC is going the way of the Cranberries.

Only decent in Turkey?
I'd rather he stayed in England to be honest

Ahh, fair enough. It was going fine at Plymouth, but the Notts County sojourn seemed to turn a bit messy. The fans there did like him though, going on what they said about the little bit they saw. I still would have liked to see him at Champoinship level after Plymouth though.

Christ tets I'm beginning to think that you've shares in Twitter, with the ferocity that you are pushing the social networking site on here.

Back to footballing matters, Clifford didn't make the Chelsea touring squad of 26 to Malaysia. Interestingly, a few of his youth winning team seem to be doing well. Billy Clifford, member of that youth team, is in the squad. He plays in midfield, also at right back. Must be a frustrating when you have captained the youth team to victory and even scored the winning goal, to see other team mates move ahead of you in the pecking order. Fingers crossed he will get a loan move to a good championship side in the next couple of weeks.

I wish! Friend of mine is working for facebook, he's going to make a fortune when they go public next year. Anyone working for twitter will be the same if/when they float
Twitter is pretty much where I get my news from now, I read about whatever is happening there first and I'd always post links to anything I've read instead of just quoting the whole thing.
Follow quite a few footballers, majority of them being Irish players, to keep up with what they're doing. Noel Hunt is mental, Meyler gives frequent updates on his progress, and just recently started following Clifford. Incidentally, he's posted a few updates since that one about closing his account.

Think he may be only returning from an injury which may be why, not sure where i read that

Called into the senior squad.

**Sullivinho** · 10/08/2011, 12:33 PM

Clifford: They want to get me out as soon as possible on loan.

Season long loan on the cards with Hamburg mentioned as a possibility.

He managed it in the end. Started and played 62 minutes for them today.

That's great. Was just thinking today about how he really needed to get out on loan again ASAP. Hopefully he will do well and will secure a championship loan come the new year

Here's a nice little article on his loan move:

Read in the star today that he just signed a 2 year extension at chelsea. Fair play to him it shows some confidence on chelsea s part. Same lenght of deal as Brady at utd. Seemingly he has had back injury but is now fit and looking to go to championship in next few weeks. Said he was bit sorry he did not go to hamburgon loan. I think he is class footballer who will look better the higher up the divisions he plays

**IsMiseSean** · 07/02/2012, 1:47 PM

What was the reason he didn't join Hamburg on loan?

Seemed to be saying he felt it was better to stay in england at the time but on reflection maybe wishes he had given a top club a chance.

**Carrigaline** · 18/02/2012, 3:41 PM

Has signed a 1 year extension to bring him up to 2013 - http://www1.skysports.com/football/n...l-for-Clifford

He'll be 21 soon, so maybe needs to consider a move away this Summer.
