Despite looking like a decent prospect in many of his early appearances for the club, Clive never really managed to progress beyond those early appearances. There was clearly talent there. He had bags of pace and was skilful enough with the ball at his feet. He was versatile and had played on both wings as well as up front, but he couldn't convert his talent into goals.
Indeed, he managed just one goal throughout his time at Dale when he scored in the 5-0 hammering of Darlington in October 2006. However, he too often seemed to lack the confidence requried to make it as an out and out striker.
In November 2006, Clive was offered a call up to the South Africa Under 21 squad, who he qualifies for through his parents. However, he picked up a knock around the time and was forced to miss out as a result.
He finished the 2006-7 season with a loan spell at Mossley. He did well there whilst on loan scoring seven goals in his spell of thirteen fixtures.
He was released by Dale at the end of 2006-7. Following leaving Dale, he played a number of games for the South Africa U-23 team, and was subsequently signed by SA Premier side Bidvest Wits.
