Loved Clint Hill. Now he was the sort of player that built Stoke's DNA, who would have kept that dressing room in check.

Clint seems to be one of them players that's been around forever. To think that the likes of Darel Russell & Steve Simonsen are the kind of players he'd of been playing with & they finished playing a good few years ago..
Just checked back & it says he played 38 games for Carlisle in the season that's just finished, some going that for a 39yr old playing lower league footy. Clint was part of the initial 'Work Arrd' DNA fabric that Pulis was trying to create at Stoke

Love to see the next generation of Clints, Rorys and Ryans coming into the club as our new backbone for next year's promotion season. That's what we've missed most of all.

Top bloke, could do with his attitude in the team. Did give a few fouls away in his time...

Redknapp said if he had a team of Clint Hill's at QPR they would never have been in any danger.
Says alot about Clint and the modern footballer.
Enjoy your retirement.

Clint was a good un for us, and probably the most eye catching tackler since Chris Kamara.

Remember me and my mate Carl getting autographs after a game about 14 years ago ( we were about 13 years old ).
We got Clint just as him and his missus were getting into their car opposite the club shop. As Carl waited for his autrograph, he looked at Clints missus and said ‘you’re a very lucky lady’ , followed by an awkward silence. 😝

Does he have his coaching badges? If so son get your application in. You will stir some of the wasters up. And have a good knowledge of who to bring in.

No surprise given he w ill have played with Barton at QPR and Rangers and a fellow scouser to boot
Really liked Clint as a player, more so than Leon Cort who we swapped him with

There was a time in the early 90s that I hated Stockport way more than Vale, Wolves, Arsenal and Man U. I recall the likes of Jim Gannon, Kevin Francis and their manager Danny Begara
Now I see they are nowhere which I guess is a bit of a shame but rather them than us
Anyway best of luck Clint

People say they'll never forget where they were when JFK was shot, but Clint Hill actually was there.
