When Brian Clough Took Forest to the Red Light District! Viv Anderson's Top 3 Cloughie Stories

Viv Anderson remembers his favourite Brian Clough stories from his time at Nottingham Forest.
The two time European Cup Winner recounts the time he found himself in Amsterdams red light zone, when he found himself trying to be a comedian on the eve of a cup final and when the team would rather be out running than in the bar!

[@gazof-the-north1980]

There will NEVER be another Brian Clough. They threw away the mold when they made him. Absolute legend!

[@andrewlafite6527]

Even at his age he still calls him mr clough that's respect

[@kingmodo]

Young lads were shooting out all over the place - probably not the best choice of words there Viv.

[@garethbuckeridge6910]

Viv was a credit to the magic that was Brian Clough. A Nottingham lad born and bred who went on to be the first black footballer to represent his country. SPIDER ...

Never been or never will be a manager like cloughie total one off and the mark of this man is that every football fan loved him no matter who you supported.. Derby and forest fans hate each other but they both love him.. Total genius

[@GreasyBelcher]

Just as amazing as all of these Brian Clough stories are, is the caliber of players telling them. I never realised how many brilliant players owe their careers to Brian Clough.

[@user-fl6gy2xw2b]

Brian Clough. What else can you say. Legend.

[@keith79mod11]

110 % agree , I don't think that there will be another manager like Brian Clough. As most football fans agree the man was a legend.

[@mattwilliams5386]

❤

[@eddie12454]

There's was only one Brian Clough. Miss him. Looking good Viv.

[@footballpotential7644]

Wow, I was a young player and bumped into Clough and Taylor presumably on this actual night, we were a Brighton youth team and we spotted them in a kind of peep show type arcade, don't recall any players being with them so we went up to them and introduced ourselves, he replied in that Cloughie drawl, ''don't spend all your money in here, just most of it'', we all shook hands and left.

[@ronaldfinch7420]

Greatest manager in the history of football.

[@barrymay8269]

I don’t think Leeds or Brighton supporters would agree with that.

[@doombrush]

The Greatest ♥️

[@jameshardy6277]

"Tell a joke that I like"... Perfectly sum us Cloughy.

[@DJCoachCookie68]

Great player Mr Anderson! Should've won more England caps methinks

[@Wally-H]

Everyone says Clough was a genius but let's face it, he was BONKERS.

[@leejoshuarose9430]

[@benworrell8861]

[@attackpatterndelta8949]

“This was the Monday, the game’s on the Wednesday” is definitely Viv Anderson’s equivalent of Dion Dublin’s “Stairs leading up to the bedroom.”

[@forgive7449]

saw viv leaving a nightclub in mayfair london at 4am a while ago... he was in his mid 50's. still living the dream.

[@IsRight]
