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
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.
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.
As a die hard forest fan im not embarrassed to say my eyes just flooded watching this especially the last 10min RIP BRIAN CLOUGH FOREST WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU ❤
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
WoW! Respect, one hundred percent respect. Brian knew football like nobody else,I may not aline with his political views but as a player and especially as a manager he was second to none and a true legend and leader in the game of football
I’m a Scot but England would have won it all with that man ,,he was one of the greatest managers , shanks paisley Ferguson,stein,smith,Ramsey and my fav Kenny 😮
sat me on his knee at a Manchester United reserve game in the late 80's at Old Trafford asking me who my favourite players were, he was impressed when I said Mark Hughes and Bryan Robson - LEGEND
I always come across something Brian Clough on a Sunday morning. The wife’s still asleep,I’m up chilling and on UA-cam up pops and some video on the man and afterwards i always watch The Damned United
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.
👍🏼 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! 🤩
Greatest English club manager that never got the top job!!!...⚽️👏🏻😍 Cloughie is the sort that will never be seen in the game ever again unfortunately and the game is a poorer place 4 that...What an absolute legend you really were Mr Brian Clough...♥️⚽️👏🏻
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?
Somewhere on UA-cam 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.
Its sad the programme does not highlight what Clough's football style entailed in terms of how they played the game in terms of tactics and structure of play..
Paul Gascoigne had got himself well over excited for that spurs forest final and was lucky not to have maimed two of the forest players but did himself in the end ..sad that Cloughie never got that trophy..
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.
Clough and Revie grew up in Middlesbrough a stones throw away from each other, interesting how two men with practically the same upbringing and social environment could be as opposite as they were but both excellent managers who achieved.
Great family man proper football manager and a great man manager and a great character…..still miss/love him today……no one else like him then or now never will be! He’s not the greatest manager but he’s defiantly in the top 1 ❤️
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.
Manny Couzens "we're sacking him because for years we've been spoilt by Don Revie"😂😂😂 MOT4LIFE he was a good manager though when he had the backing of the boardroom and players like at forest first British club to win back to back European cups 🏆🏆
A true legend,a great man and yet the gutter media still wanted to drag him through the mud,as an Arsenal supporter I followed Forest with interest because of Mr.Clough👍
As a Liverpool fan and seen Shanks Team of the 60s then the 70s, and Paisleys teams of the 70s and 80s, and Leeds with Revie, there is this Other Guy who took two teams from the Doldrums to Greatness, firstly with Derby County and then Forest, what a manager, what a Person, No Nonsense Mr Clough, and being honest if he was Englands Manager he would have won the World Cup. Clough up there with the Best.
Le portrait qu'en avait fait David Peace dans "45 jours" semblait très crédible. Il voulait changer le style du jeu anglais, style continental, ce qu'avait aussi préconisé Bob Paislay avec Liverpool. Il avait, il me semble, un problème avec l'alcool.
You have to look at Leeds after they sacked Clough, and Nottingham Forest after they hired him. Who got it right? I was a Leeds fan from 69 but they are bent bunch of match fixing bastards
Forest supporters can never repay Clough and Taylor for what he did. I’d like to think the Nottingham spirit for rebellion attracted him. Interestingly the quality of football in the late 80s was sublime, that was down to his coaching staff and his off handed approach that simply said let your football do the talking.
I think one of saddest thing about this great man was that he clearly a great striker as well as manager and sad jealous twats kicked him out of the game.
Not a dictator, more a genius misunderstood.. why dictator, because he took no shit.. he was better than the administrators, why be jealous an envious of someone because they were great at what they we're doing.
My Dad Was A Bham City Fan In The 70's When I Was Under 10 And Therefore So Was I.. My Dad Cheated On My Mother And He Left. Shortly After That Trevor Francis Signed For Notts Forest And I Followed Him As A Supporter Of Bham City To Forest.. I'm Now 55.. And Still A Forest Fan.. And Realise Now That Following Francis To Forest Was My "Up Yours" Shout Out To My Father For Leaving Me And My Mother And My 4 Sisters. Thanks Brian Clough For Making Me Not Regret My Decision. Long Live Nottingham Forest. Peace ✌️
The sad thing is, he was right about the centre halfs letting goals in for monetary gains it was proven years later at Boro, can’t think of the defenders now
It's people and stories like this that make football.. this is why I'm losing interest in todays game.. too much business and too much politics. the peoples game is meant to be a distraction from these divisions.
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
Clough was special. England hasn't produced a manager like him since.
Football aside he was special either way
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.
As a Forest Fan he gave us so many happy memories , God bless his soul (not perfect but a great football man)
No a great football man “THE” greatest football man
"The only time I look a perfect man in the eye is when I'm shaving in the morning...."
Brian Clough, probably
Who is perfect?
Football back then seems to be another sport from another planet when set against today’s game
Spot on , I still follow and watch my team (Forest) but the soul has been removed from the game
It's reflects the country.
Globalism. Same forces destroying the nation are destroying the sport…
That’s the same for the whole world
The thing is it was a sport. Yes, a professional game with lots of money swilling around, but at its core, a sport.

No mention of his comments about Hillsborough?

When you see and hear Brian Clough on this documentary, one begins to see what a marvellous job Michael Sheen does of portraying him.
Sheen’s impressions are terrible, including his Clough.
@@aidanlynnnow then young man we’ll have less of that and a little more respect 🤪

No VAR, no mercenaries , no millionaire players . Wonderful times.
So the players played for nothing?
@@steveroberts9453 Trevor Francis???
It's all relative
Plentiful mercenaries
I am 71 and as far as I am concerned the coming of the players agents changed rhe game forever and not for the good
He never got over from Peter Taylor's death. Haunted him the rest of his life he didn't make a piece with Taylor and that's why he started drinking.
The best manager England never had
By a million miles. Only England could have denied him the top job . Nothing changed since then really. 🏴
True …football really miss Brian clough now … even Mohamed Ali love clough …
An absolute genius, the greatest English manager that has ever been.
What he said about the FA is spot on. Look at Southgate, he was just a "nice" man.
A genius with a record to prove it.
Greatest English club manager that never got the top job!!!...⚽️👏🏻😍 Cloughie is the sort that will never be seen in the game ever again unfortunately and the game is a poorer place 4 that...What an absolute legend you really were Mr Brian Clough...♥️⚽️👏🏻
At 57 Cloughie looked 70 due to alcohol but still an absolute legend of a man. RIP Sir 🙏❤
To be fair to him at 65 he looked 65.
When I see how handsome he was as a younger man I can see how ravaged he was by drink as he got older.

The best football manager and man-manager (which is a different skill) that ever lived and that's coming from a Wolves fan.

@@KrisHubbard-w5x really? 6 league titles, 3 European Cups, 1 UEFA cup and 3 league cups in 9 years. It’s a pretty good shout.

Would have made a great assistant for Gareth Southgate I’m sure. Or even Lee carsley now .
Me and my mate was stood in the Trent End on his last day.... I still have a handful of grass from the turf from that day.
Me and my brother was in Trent End that day. We were 18 back then and Forest and Cloughie were our passion. Loved the Trent End 👍
Its sad the programme does not highlight what Clough's football style entailed in terms of how they played the game in terms of tactics and structure of play..
You should check out the ITV documentary. That has accounts from his players.
Paul Gascoigne had got himself well over excited for that spurs forest final and was lucky not to have maimed two of the forest players but did himself in the end ..sad that Cloughie never got that trophy..
Still remember that game because of that incident!
Sad he didn’t get that FA cup trophy , but tragic he didn’t get that England job🏴
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.
The man who called out the F.A for what they are..That’s why they have and will never win nothing while they are running the show 😂
Thanks for uploading :)
I'm from scotlandstan age 69 but loved cloughie, great man, he would have been great as British PM, top top guy
It was great to see how well he looked at the end of the interview and how much awe great players held him in. A feel good programme
Best manager of his generation . The 1 England missed out on . Coming from a Scotsman. Brilliant Man. ❤
Clough and Revie grew up in Middlesbrough a stones throw away from each other, interesting how two men with practically the same upbringing and social environment could be as opposite as they were but both excellent managers who achieved.
Great family man proper football manager and a great man manager and a great character…..still miss/love him today……no one else like him then or now never will be! He’s not the greatest manager but he’s defiantly in the top 1 ❤️
Cloughie was simply the best 🙏🏻
Brian clough unorthodox, enigma a brilliant genius
Ah man, that was great. Thanks for the upload...
One word sums Brian Clough up. Genius.
Thought he was gonna say Alki
Very clever man …always love cloughie..
A great manager probably the best uk manager ever
Sir Alex Ferguson.
Love Cloughie, made me sad to see him like that at the end.
Clough is proof Mourinho is not original
Fantastic documentary 👏🏻
He was a one off. I am a Nottingham lad and was 16 in 1979. Nottingham was buzzing back them because if Brian clough and a great forest team
We also had a great unsung manager in Nottingham jimmy sirrel of notts county
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.
He was probably the best motivator but there were many better coaches than him.
Walter Winterbottom didn't pick Clough to play for England. It was the FA Select Committee who picked the players.
I liked the use of sountracks from films from the North. Get Carter. Saturday night and Sunday morning.
Heavy drinking ages you horribly.
After 45 clough was looking 10 years older than he really was.
i dont know if this is right or wrong, but i understand arrogance when you are *THAT* good.
If you like in the dictionary for the definition of the word "greatest", they just have a picture of Brian Clough.
Such a tragic end to a football management career..
What a wonderful chapter in the history of British football. RIP Cloughie, one of the best!

Genius
Rest in peace mr clough
I think one of saddest thing about this great man was that he clearly a great striker as well as manager and sad jealous twats kicked him out of the game.
Forest Are Magic ✨️✨️☘️

As a teen I could nt stand the man but now have great respect
The greatest manager of all time
Disgrace they never made him England manager
What a marvellous account
He proper put Derby and Forest and the whole East Mids on the map 🐏🐏🐏🐏🐏🐏
35:40 bit annoying that part has been cut out
NOT THE FULL DOCUMENTARY!!!!!!
What do you expect for the princely sum of nowt
Should’ve been England manager 🎉
He was the Youth Coach at Sunderland FC until he got sacked.

Cloughie must have been hard work a lot of the time, however, boy did he know how to get the best out of players when it mattered.
😂
Quick question. Who's the other Scottish player too win a European Cup/Champions league, but never win a cap? Anyone know, Just curious
Amazing
I Always admired you brien thànkyou
There's a few segments missing on here
The sad thing is, he was right about the centre halfs letting goals in for monetary gains it was proven years later at Boro, can’t think of the defenders now
Very clever man …think England miss a trick not appointing him …
Thank God Liverpool Become The Powerhouse And Not Derby County Or Nottingham Forest, Shankly And Paisley Were Much Better Managers
way before my time
Fantastic memories.
Respect
It's people and stories like this that make football.. this is why I'm losing interest in todays game.. too much business and too much politics. the peoples game is meant to be a distraction from these divisions.

It went to shit because television put the game in lounges.
