Football's Greatest Teams .. Nottingham Forest

[@BillyBronco73]

Brian Clough and Peter Taylor were the greatest managerial team in football history. Not once but twice they took modest 2nd division clubs from the Midlands and made them champions of England. They took Derby to the semifinal of the European cup and Nottingham Forest to two consecutive European cup triumphs. The sad thing was Clough and Taylor fell out and never spoke again. They could never have been as successful on their own as they were together.

For anyone watching this- the younger generation-can you imagine watching this team? I was a young lad age 9, and watching my team win the second division- then on to win the old 1st- then European cup twice- it was well beyond my wildest dreams, and to this day is still an total inspiration to me. We never were that fashionable- and we knew it. Being an underdog is very special

[@stuartwilson23]

Forest didn't win the 2nd Division, they scraped up in 3rd. But how I wish I'd been alive when they achieved all this, instead of the 25 years of mainly rubbish I've been through!

Best memories of my childhood. Too young to stay up and watch the game (or not allowed) covertly listening to the match in my bedroom on a JPS Lotus car radio, "Frances scores!" Amazing, thank you Nottingham Forest for great memories; an amazing team.

[@patrikbytyqi4ever]

I think you're right, today's managers take small clubs and make a name for themselves and then join a bigger club. I think Clough was a mad man but in the most positive way, he wanted to prove to everyone that he could do it with Derby and he did, then wanted to prove it to the management of Derby County that they had made a mistake and he did that with Nottingham Forest. He was a crazy and incredible man, I think if he had gotten the England job they would have at least made the finals once or even win the world cup. I think Mourinho is the only manager that can come a bit close to Clough as in doing what he wants and having success his way but Brian Clough was special and irreplaceable.

[@masteryoda498]

To take a team from the old English second division to division one, win the division one league, then win back to European Cups, in just a few seasons, is nothing short of a miracle. The Late Brian Clough (R.I.P), was a footballing genius.

[@DavidUKesb]

Most teams always had two defenders on John Robertson but they still couldn't stop him. Fabulous player.

[@OGA_999]

Yep Similar style has one Jacky Grealish but Robertson often done his opponents "on the outside" which surprised them with him being right-footed. He was so good you couldn't predict which way he was going to go and he SCORED A GOOD FEW IMPORTANT GOALS TOO (Take note Jack)!!

My Dad was the same, especially about the season they did for Liverpool in the EC, despite Liverpool winning Div 1 that season. I think it was a triple European Cup of 1978-79 he was hoping for. In hindsight, I still doubt Cloughie would have got Forest past Bayern to the Paris final in 1981. Liverpool rode an onslaught from the Germans to win that European Cup. It's still amazing English sides had only lost one (1983) from 8 European Cups. Cloughie achieved such a huge amount in such a rapid time. High octane, something Ipswich and Bobby Robson almost emulated. The game has changed so much now that managers and coaches are just cheap and throwaway, like sticks of chewing gum. Clubs just will not ride out poor dips of form, but every good boss has bad spells. Even Paisley said he had a bad season, ironically it was that 1980/81 season when they were 5th, yet still European Champions with their first ever League Cup win against Hammers

How can a football club, ignored by the press and looking at relegation from the 2nd tier of football into the dark side, be suddenly transformed into Champions of England, And then Champions of Europe. Twice. Using the same players that were unrecognised useless losers. Gamblers. Has beens. Carpet Fitters. Chancers. It can only be down to management. Some man called Brian Clough, and his best pal Peter Taylor. They had chemistry. Brian Clough took Forest from the bottom, turned them into Champions of England and Europe, and then gently led them back where he found them. It was a fantastic journey. It was emotional. And it will never be repeated.

It’s sad to think that something like this will never happen again because in today’s football world and all sports really there is soooo much money being thrown about that just about every player is a millionaire in their first 2 years on the pitch. The money comes mainly from three sources. Advertising/endorsement The fans through ticket sales and purchasing of products And the middle eastern oil money. I hate seeing our players covered in words like “emirates” etc. Of course I use the phrase “our players” rather loosely lol considering a good percentage of them aren’t even from the U.K. anymore. We have players that even after being on a U.K. team for several years still can’t speak English or at best a few words and phrases.

I’ll always support Arsenal but stories like Nottingham Forest are some of my favorite in all of football. Those guys competed with the best teams Europe had to offer and took them down more often than not. It’s a shame what ended up happening to them because their fans deserve better but hopefully they’re on the way back up again. The premier league is where they belong

Arsenal would not be wearing red and white without forest.

I watched a CD of Brian Cloughs Forest achievements. There was only one bit missing. It was at the end. He loved Frank Sinatra. And Frank Sinatra sang a certain song. It was called 'My Way'. That CD should have ended with that song. Because it summed up everything Cloughie was about. He certainly did it his way. 'And now the end is near ..............................

Excellent video - my first match was vs. Charlton Athletic - drew 1-1, I was 11? - superb Trent End years - Wembley twice & Old Trafford - celebrating on the bus home with half of Nottingham smiling when we beat Man U 4-0 away. The street parades remember them? Put Nottingham on the map - great years

Reminds me of how good things used to be. Can’t even watch a minute of football day. Cloughie was great. We were very proud of him in the North Riding.

How lucky was I to have lived through and been in attendance for all of these things as a lifelong Forest supporter born and raised a half hour from the city ground!!

[@paulcookies]

You could never make this up...what odds in 1975 that in a few years a lowly second division team would win repeat Euro Cups...at least 50,000 to 1. Also what they did with Derby, Cloughie and Taylor have to among the GOATS

Brian Clough - an absolutely fascinating man - Shakespeare could have written a play about him - would it be comedy or tragedy?-actually both. If only he hadn't fallen out with Peter Taylor who kept him properly balanced, they could have gone on for years. I think the drink shows there was damage in his soul which was never healed and which may have prevented him from fully enjoying his successes. Did he realise how much people loved him? We saw that behind the exterior (which we absolutely loved) was a genuine man and we rooted for him even when we supported other teams. RIP Brian

Magnifique !

[@jamiekopite8878]

Everyone knows that they will never reach the glories of the past, but what the fans ask for is a club that they can be proud of again Really looking forward to their return to the Prem

What an amazing era. Martin O'Neill definitely took Cloughie's attitude into his managerial career and emulated his success in making winning teams from nothing, and came very close to a UEFA Cup. John Robertson was mesmeric and I think in my lifetime if I had a to pick a starting eleven, it would be very difficult not to put Shilton in goal, he defied logic at times, talk about cat like reflexes.
