"Altrincham FC have signed former Rochdale striker Clive Moyo-Modise (d.o.b. September 24, 1984, in London). Clive has also played in South Africa for Premier Soccer League club, Bidvest Wits, where he was deployed as a winger. He has played for South Africa under-23s and was included in training for South Africa's national team in early 2008. But he began his career at the Spotland club in 2005, for whom he made 2 + 26 first-team appearances.
Clive, who is 5ft 10ins will assume squad number eight for Altrincham, the number vacated by Matty Crowell earlier this season."

Sounds alright to me although he only got 1 goal in 26 games for Rochdale, I think! But he did do okay at other clubs. Aren't we desperately in need of a left back, though?

[Stan Hibbert]

Fingers crossed he's a gud un!

Best of luck and welcome to Alty

Clive Moyo-Modise (born September 24, 1984 in London, England) is an English-South African footballer. He is an attacking player.Currently playing for Altrincham F.C.

Clive started his career with Rochdale in 2005 and scored his first senior professional goal of his career against Darlington on the 6 October 2006. He scored the fifth goal in a game Rochdale won 5–0 at the 96.6 TFM Arena in Darlington.Whilst there he attracted a number of clubs in the higher leagues including Liverpool and Bolton.He scored the only goal in the Senior Lancashire Cup Final in 2005/06 season.

In early November, Clive was called up to the South African under-21's side, but had to pull put of the squad due to a hamstring injury. Although born in England, Clive qualifies internationally for South Africa due to his parents. He later in his playing spell in South Africa, played for the national Under-23 team.He scored on his debut in the 3–1 loss against Cameroon in the Sasol Eight Nations Tournament held in Johannesburg.He also received a senior national call up from Carlos Alberto Parreira (World Cup winning coach) for a 2 week training camp in Johannesburg early 2008.

On the 9 February 2007, Clive joined Mossley on loan initially for a month. After scoring 5 goals in 7 matches, his loan was extended until the end of the season at the Northern Premier League Premier Division club.

He left Rochdale on 11 May 2007 and later joined South African Premier Soccer League side Bidvest Wits.

Moyo-Modise spent just a season at Wits after arriving from England scoring three times while playing as a winger.He was offered a contract by Golden Arrows in mid September but rejected to go back to England for family reasons.

He had a successful trial at cash strapped Stockport County FC in March 2009,but was unable to sign as club was bound for

Tut, tut Cult! I think you're forgetting Super-Joe O'Neill.  

[bigcol]

Can he play left back?

[Saughall Robin]

Let's hope this means a bit of extra fire-power. Welcome to the club!

Looks good on this evidence: fast, low centre of gravity so rides a tackle well and good vision for crosses & passes.
A bit 1 footed.

With the surname M-M do we call him Mighty Mouse?

[gunners11]

[Butty]

Looks a bit of a finished off Carlos Logan

Yeah...... who was it that did that?

[taxi Phil]

Now HERE'S a challenging name for you singers to compose around !

[casper]

Interesting signing, and will have to see where he fits into the squad, especially as we have clee, senior, denham and densmore all able to play on the wings.

I would have thought a left back would have been a must have given matty's injury

[B. 4D]

We need a fast forward, lets hope this lad is the boy.
Good luck, and welcome to THE MIGHTY ROBINS.
