King Eases Pressure On Clark Slightly

Marlon King eased the pressure on manager Lee Clark slightly when he hit an 18 minute hat-trick to bring Blues level with Millwall after falling three behind.

Things didn’t look good for Clark when Millwall raced into a three goal lead with Chris Wood who was on loan at St Andrews last season headed home from close range.

The advantage was doubled two minutes later by Chris Taylor before Wood piled on more misery for Clark when he hit his second and Millwall’s third.

But King inspired a comeback from City just before half time when he grabbed a goal back and then the 32 year old turned on the style when he added two more in the second half.
