Football career
Brentford
He made his Football League debut against Luton Town in January 1998. He made four appearances overall and was loaned for three months to Uxbridge in December 1999.[5][7]
Hayes
Whilst at Hayes, Clark scored a penalty kick against Wycombe Wanderers televised on Sky Sports.[3] He scored in the forty third minute giving Hayes a 2–1 lead, however they would go on to lose 4–3.[8] His final game for Hayes was a start in the 2–0 loss at home against Boston United on 28 April 2002, in the Football Conference.
Clark was named in a squad for the England C national football team (formerly known as the England semi-pro national team) match against the Isthmian League representative XI on 21 November 2001.[9]
Northwood
He played for Northwood in three spells, appearing for Windsor & Eton, Maidenhead United and Wealdstone between his appearances for the The Woods. In his appearances, he would twice win the Northwood Golden Boot for top goalscorers, in the 2004–05 and 2005–06 seasons and made over one hundred appearances across five seasons, scoring 43 goals in both league and cup appearances before transferring to AFC Hayes in November 2007.[6]
AFC Hayes
Whilst at AFC Hayes, Clark played in the Middlesex Senior Cup final 2–0 victory over Hendon. He was noted as having one particular chance to score when a sliced clearance from Hendon goalkeeper William Viner fell to his feet, however the keeper redeemed himself with a save described as "brilliant".[10] Clark resigned for AFC Hayes briefly in 2010.[11]
Slough Town
Clark made his début for Slough Town in the 2–2 draw against Romulus on 12 December 2009. He was brought on as a substitute having started on the bench. With six minutes to go, he crossed a free-kick into the box for Chris Herron to volley in an equaliser.[12]
