Brian Clough interview.

[Andy TheCatalyst Morrison]

There’s a book written about him called “Be Good, Love Brian” about him taking a young scally under his wing. Very very good read. A truly great manager but absolutely a flawed genius

 

[BlueMoonRisin’]

Always liked Cloughie. Liked him even more when I read he made his Forest team run bollock naked through stinging nettles just for losing a game.

Could have landed him around 75 before Forest, although Booky was doing OK at the time. Not sure he'd have seen eye to eye with the combover though.

Here's a cracking interview.

Best isn’t that type of player. Where have we heard that before?

Just replace Best with pig ginger - or most other rags - and we have a commentator's mantra for decades.

"I think we play too much football". God only knows what he would think today.

I thought exactly the same.

"And the break between seasons isn’t long enough."

 

[MCFC Wirral]

A Leeds supporting friend was upset with how they portrayed his club in The Damned United but I’m assuming they were spot on.

 

[RodneyRodney]

Yep.

If we was alive now he'd be a reform MP.

. . .and he'd make a better PM than any of the clowns who've been in no. 10 since Churchill

 

[RodneyRodney]

He was a big Labour supporter and champagne socialist

...one set of rules for me , another set of rules for everyone else .
They're all the same
