Not Irish internationals sod off to America when they can’t get work in England.

Some decide to move down the lower leagues and that’s where you’ll find one Clinton Hubert Morrison these days as he’s fighting the good fight with Exeter City.

The former Ireland international, who grabbed nine goals in 36 Irish caps ,was in action for his club’s in Saturday’s FA cup action against Didcot when he was crunched into by Jack Self.

And the Irishman did not react well at all, grabbing the player around the neck and almost sparking an all out brawl on the pitch until tempers thankfully cooled.
