I would not be surprised if this happens.
There have been rumblings regarding Mick Turner`s fitness/conditioning regime, even before the season commenced, & throughout the season.
Jon Clarke for all his limitations skill-wise as a player, was an exemplary trainer, & a fitness fanatic.
He had a good working relationship with Tony Smith, & would be a popular appointment.
As an ex-international player himself,Jon would be able to relate to the players, & have their respect, but still be the hard task master which is a requisite for the job.
