    With the wet winter we have had it tends to wash out all the nitrogen in the soil , so now that you have clover growing means the soil is low in nutrients, so could do with a feed which will help sort it out.

    But at the same time it does fix nitrogen on its roots that would feed the grass if you were a farmer you would be happy with the out come.

    Also using lime in the Autumn will help.

    If its just a couple of patches it is easier to hand weed them out
