Lincoln City On 3 June 2009, it was confirmed that the striker had agreed terms with Lincoln City manager Peter Jackson. The contract was due to begin on 1 July 2009. Clarke was the Imps' second signing of the summer. However, Clarke left Lincoln City by mutual consent on 29 January 2010 after scoring just one league goal in 20 appearances.

Drug gang activity, criminal conviction and imprisonment In January 2018, Clarke was jailed for 15 years after being found guilty of affray, kidnapping, causing grievous bodily harm with intent and two counts of false imprisonment. As the ringleader of a drug-dealing gang, he had taken over a man's home in an act of cuckooing before kidnapping him; after tying the man up, Clarke and an accomplice, Sakhawat Hussain, tortured the man, pouring boiling water over his genitals and also subjecting him to acts of humiliation. The victim suffered broken bones in his nose, cheeks, and upper and lower jaws, as well as bruising and swelling to his face and arms, and blisters, skin loss and reddening to his legs, buttocks and genitals. Several days prior to the attack, both Hussain and Clarke had also made threats to murder the unborn child of the victim and his heavily pregnant partner.
