To be fair, Stu, he was injured for about 85% of the season and did in fact play well in five or six starts (scoring two goals). I think he'll find a Championship club quite easily.

Ah - fair. I didn't realise he'd had that tough a time with injury

It seems he's not really an option at senior level any more, but a permanent move to Sheffield United would still be a good outcome I think

Has he been linked with anyone? Still a free agent.

I was surprised that Clark didn't get a new club before the transfer window closed. Given that he is a free agent, I thought that something might develop today (Monday) and wondered if e.g. Blackburn or Middlesbrough might be interested. According to Alan Nixon (The Sun) and Football League World, however, it is Alex Neil and Stoke who are bargain hunting.
