New film being released on Clough's time with Notts Forest.



Looks really good, and on this slow Sunday afternoon has inspired me to start a Football Manager challenge of winning the European Cup twice with Forest in five seasons.

Supposed to be decent this.

 

[Jamo Martinez]

Would like to see this.

Good article in the Guardian.

Spot on about John Robertson not getting anywhere near the recognition he deserved. Amazing player.

Always thought Clough was a bit of bellend to be honest, the sort of fella who would say something hoping to be quoted later on, comes across as a bully. Though he does make for an interesting subject for a sports documentary, as long as it isn't too sycophantic

I like arrogance in sporting figures providing they can back it up with achievements . It's arrogance without anything on your cv that infuriates me , to take Forest to two European Cups is incredible when you think about it .

I'm also completely convinced clough took himself as seriously as it looked , ultimately though a fantastic manager who won the league with not one but two 'provincial' sides and that really takes some doing .

Hated him at the time. In hindsight, the fella was a genius.

I loved that team. No star system, no showboating, no histrionics; just got the ball and played the opposition off the park.

The chutzpah Clough had in leading them to their successes. A genius. Without a shadow of a doubt the best English manager there's been, given the resources he had at both Derby and Forest and the trophies he won with them.

And Dave the FA would not let him within 50 miles of the International Team.
