The Real Brian Clough: The FULL Documentary

[@thefxautopilot]

I was proud to be one of the Sheffield United fans at his last game, and there was no hesitation in joining in with us singing his praises. His thumbs-up to us was beautiful. R.I.P. Brian and thanks for the memories

[@DidYaServe]

Clough was special. England hasn't produced a manager like him since.

[@davidcunningham9282]

Football aside he was special either way

[@harrysmith6502]

Brian achieves all he did while being pissed up. The drink was a double a doubled edged sword. It helped create his genius and opened up his neorealism’s to the game his players and life. He rode the highs of it and it worked.

[@seltaeb3302]

He robbed Testimonial money from Jimmy Gordon his trainer at Derby & Forest. £7000 was raised he immediately took £3000 from it..Jimmy had very little reward for decades in the game. Despicable by Clough. This is fact & witnessed. People just close his ears to this as they have a saintly image of him. He was ruthless & took plenty under the table money from transfers.

As an 11 year old boy in far off Sydney Australia in 1973, the only Football we saw on TV was The Big Match from the UK. Seeing this bloke Brian Clough, hearing his controversial and outspoken comments was one of the biggest things that started my life long love of the beautiful game. I was fascinated by Brian Clough, his fall at Leeds United did not dim my view of him. I still loved him. Then, seeing him go on to achieve at the highest level at Nottingham Forest did not surprise me one bit. I have 3 all time football heroes... Brian Clough, Johan Cruyff, and Diego Maradona. That is how highly I regard Brian Clough. If only the FA had the guts to appoint him England Manager. What could have been?

[@ScouseFarm]

As a Liverpool Fan, the only Manager I didn't mind losing the League to was (SIR) Brian Clough. He would be a great addition to modern football, and would snap these little pampered emotional charlatans into reality. What a Manager.

The thing is it was a sport. Yes, a professional game with lots of money swilling around, but at its core, a sport. Can we still say that about the "product" we have today? Foreign owners with questionable intentions. Players that care more about their social media and salary than winning matches. Ordinary fans that are priced out in favour of tourists who go to games for 'experiences' and to get some Instagram content.

[@JakJim1]

As a Forest Fan he gave us so many happy memories , God bless his soul (not perfect but a great football man)

I am from/living in Liverpool, I was a Liverpool supporter we Hated Him, I can tell you why we Hated Him (it was a hidden respect) for him taking two established 2nd division east midlands clubs from No Hopers to League Champions,. One was cruelly cheated in a European Cup Semi-Final and the other Won 2 European Cups beating Liverpool on the way!. Leeds messed up and will for ever Regret sacking him The Football Association rejected him in 1974 and 77 as they would have Hated his outlook on changing The Hole Set Up. England would have easily won The European Championship's and reached the World Cup semis or Finals and could have won it The Man was a Legend

👍🏼 Thanks for a great Cloughie documentary. In my opinion, the best football manager ever. A complete one-off: a legend who will always be missed…it was a pleasure to grow-up in an era of football that involved superb characters like Cloughie who always had plenty to say, the media loved him as much we fans did! 🤩

[@johnkehoe646]

Very emotional to watch in parts. Whatever his faults he remains the most fascinating and charismatic character I can recall in 60 years as a Football fan...RIP Brian

There are manager's who can do it with big name clubs, but there are very few who could achieve major success with relatively small clubs in a big club league, he had something very few could match, extraordinary man.

Somewhere on KZbin is a video of Clough at Derby in 1970, just as things were starting to take off. It's fascinating to watch because no one has an inkling about what was to happen at Derby, let alone Nottingham Forest.

[@conorodowd-qh9bu]

He could be a nasty man and did some nasty things but would not tolerate any nastiness in his players. No backchat to referees, no thuggery (and several of his players were amongst the hardest thugs in the game before they played for Clough , Kenny Burns anyone). No underhand tactics. His team won things playing football. He not only called LeedsUnited thugs, but labelled them cheats. He did sully his reputation at a match v qpr at the city ground which I was at. (Tickets on front row of main stand courtesy of Franz Carr) About 10 yards in front of us he slapped a couple of fans for walking on his pitch after the game. It was all over the news at the time, but what wasn’t reported was the reaction of the crowd, especially those in the main stand. They were livid at Clough. People were screaming at him, how dare he? He’s gone too far. One or two near me tried to get on the pitch to remonstrate with him, but luckily were prevented by others. This was 1989 and I think his sad decline into alcoholism had already begun.

[@LeeBeardshall]

The greatest England manager we never had.

[@ThunderWarrior01]

Brian was the best manager in the history of the game in my opinion,he was also the greatest interviewee next to one man,the man who said Clough that’s enough at the start of the program.

[@geoffreyking4515]

We also had a great unsung manager in Nottingham jimmy sirrel of notts county

[@seltaeb3302]

Here's a true Clough story that people dont want to hear. His team trainer of many years at both Derby & Forest was Jimmy Gordon a ex pro who Clough relied on a lot but didn't pay him a lot, just an average worker wage. Forest gave him a Testimonial Forest v Derby. Clough told the Treasurer that he would be taking some of that money for the 'club' ie his wallet. After the match Gordon eventually went to the the Treasurer to collect his money which had raised £7000. The treasurer told him that Clough had already been down & took £3000 his cut. That money was for Jimmy who had given Clough nearly two decades of loyal service for very little, it was a despicable thing to do.

Forest supporters can never repay Clough and Taylor for what he did. I’d like to think the Nottingham spirit for rebellion attracted him.
