- The day Cloughie got the sack at Leeds United he went on Yorkshire TV's Calender programme to be interviewed by future MP Austin Mitchell - and sat next to previous Leeds boss, current England manager and nemesis Don Revie....what followed was TV gold...
This is a lesson to today’s sports stars, so called Celebs and politicians to have the cahones and backbone to speak honestly and candidly and actually answer the questions put to them. I remember this interview at the time and it was literally jaw dropping and compulsive viewing. Bless Clough for his spunk in actually agreeing to this interview. Legend... overused term but not in this case !
It’ll never happen me macgee. Children are taught in schools now to always watch what they say and never speak their minds unless it’s following the zombie tradition of political leftist agendas. To speak out means to get cancelled and upset a load of some brainless dicks. That’s why cloughie and his likes will never be again. Sad isn’t it.
I agree with you but the press has to behave better as well
@@ivangamez9773 I recently seen an interview with Quentin Tarantino where he answered reasonable questions but simply refused to answer cheeky or prying questions and told the interviewer he was this monkey . THATS the correct way to deal with outrageous personal questions 👍🏴
Let's be honest brothers, both of them are absolute legends,if you love football then this coverage is iconic.Thanks for the upload chief, really enjoyed it 🇮🇪❤️
Totally agree.BOTH great managers.What Revie did at Leeds United mirrored Shankly at Liverpool.Both Revie and Shankly took over their clubs in the late 50s when both clubs were in the second tier of football,both got their clubs in the top division and changed the kits ,Leeds from Blue and Yellow to All White and Liverpool Red and White to All Red,then go on to create legendary teams.Cloughie the same taking over middle sized East Midlands clubs,first Derby County ,then Nottingham Forest,Both clubs in the second tier of football,got them promoted and again bought great success.Compare to Mourinio taking over Europes biggest and wealthiest clubs with bottomless pits of money.
Can't help but feel that Leeds lost out huge here when the board submitted to player power.
Well if the players aren't going to play for the manager, there's nothing you can do. The board would have been absolutely retarded to push on, knowing the players won't play for Clough
Doubts about Eddie Gray's fitness? He got kicked so much because he was such a brilliant player, but he was still playing for Leeds NINE years later! Two fantastic managers. Bless 'em both. Leeds were magnificent in 1973-4. I really enjoyed Brian's Derby (the boy Hinton, or was it Hector? etc). Turned Forest into a fantastic passing side, almost the Barcelona of their day. Great memories!
Look at what dirty Leeds missed out on,fair play forest
We Are Leeds
Imagine seeing the equivalent interview these days - amazing access and performance
Clough had agreed to do the interview with no knowledge that Don Revie would be there.
That's rubbish. You just got that from Damned United film. In this real interview he knew full well he was going to be there.
@@Darwinion have you got a source for that bro?
@Alf to be fair does the person with the original claim have a source to that😄
@@Darwinion exactly you can’t do that in the real world out someone on whiteout the knowledge of the person interviewed
We won’t see his like again.
Clough mistake was not having Taylor with him
Mourinho - the modern day Clough
I remember watching this when it first screened and thinking how 'opposite' to one another Brian Clough and Don Revie appeared during this interview.
Watching it now, I can't help but notice that Brian actually had a great deal of respect for Don. He obviously saw him as the big cheese amongst managers at the time and he desperately wanted to emulate or better what Revie had achieved. There was something cartoonish about his attitude not just to Revie at this time but to all other managers which was part of his style but sometimes over the top.
It was only when he stopped being a TV Celebrity and he concentrated on being a football manager with Peter Taylor again that he achieved the same sort of accolades that Revie had at Leeds.
Very true. Brian Clough had respect for Don Revie's achievements. Something happened in a previous fixture that Clough never forgot or got over. But the sack and the experience at Brighton was sobering for him. In his own words he matured after that and came back as a supreme manager and definitely surpassed Don's achievements. Clough would only have succeeded at Leeds had he had chance to clear the lot out and rebuild but that was never going to happen
Revie did nothing with England. FA yes man.
RIP to Austin Mitchell who passed away, his interviews with Clough will always be remembered
Pity he was a Labour supporter!
@@ianjarrett2724 Clough would not have supported 'New' labour
@@danw1374 Austin Mitchell I meant. He was actually a Labour MP at one time...probably before yours....
@@ianjarrett2724 I must say the Tories are doing a great job aren't they? Fuck's sake
@alanberkeley7282 Wait till Labour get in. You will find out what hardship really is!
Revie had the charisma of a blocked artery.
Push off you sad git.
His players loved him though.
Clough was not anything but Class and Quality , Forest are lucky he took them to the peaks of being the best team in Europe for two seasons running. He lost his way when his former best friend and co manager died in 80's this being Peter Taylor.
Cloughie and Taylor the greatest management team ever to grace football, they were such visionaries at the time......very few realize how good Cloughie was as a player, 251 goals in 274 appearances before injury robbed him of his playing career, tell me a striker with a record like that since.....then to go and do what he did as a manager with Taylor just showed how much of a special manager he was...would have been great to see him manage the modern player, he’d knock a few of them down a peg or two, imagine Pogba behaving as he does with Cloughie lol
Taylor didn't die..they fell out..
7 weeks is nowhere near enough , hindsight is a wonderful thing perhaps Don revie was right in saying Johnny Giles should of took over continuity ! Sadly gone out-of the game over the years .
Staggering fact I only found out about yesterday Clough spent more as manager of Leeds than Revie did.....
Who on? So yet again the board don't back the manager .. 7 wks!! 😔🙄
Brian referred to him as " Mr Revie " and again as "Don" then Don Revie says he won't refer to him as" Clough " As history proves big mistake Leeds 🙄
@@johndunne6639 Revie was talking about previous interviews that Brian had done including some from a few weeks before this one.
Revie will always play 2nd fiddle to Cloughie in every department..
Revie was also a great manager, to be fair. He did a remarkable job at Leeds.
Apparently Clough didn't even know anything about this interview. Basically he was thrown under the proverbial bus that night.
That is very true, I seen an interview years later where Cloughie spoke about this interview, was a complete hit job to take the focus off the board and team and blame it all on Cloughie, Revie did all he could to undermine him even after he left trying to get Giles in the role, I’m Irish and a Forest fan and I never liked Giles after knowing some of the shit he did to Cloughie supported in background by big Don! Was so happy when he went to Forest and did what he did, back to back European cups was a middle finger to Leeds, Revie, and all those players......game needs visionaries like Cloughie to bring it forward.
This interview was featured in the film, ‘The Damned United.’
Of course he knew stop watching films and get in the real world
I think this was a pivotal moment in the history of Leeds United. If he was given time- Leeds would have continued wining titles.
How can you give him time when he didnt like the club and alienated the Leeds star players in one of the first training sessions he had with Leeds, first 6 matches with Clough, Leeds were sitting rock bottom of the first division.
@@adamdennison80 and they never won another top flight trophy for another 18 years
@KebabMusicLtd how could he of been given time when Clough never liked Leeds in the first place.
After this :- Two European champions league titles. Clough was in a different league to Revie.
When I was growing up, Leeds under Revie was a really dirty and nasty team. Capable yes, but nasty.
Brian Clough the Jose Mourinho of his time.
A great display of two very different Football philosophies, Don was very old school and cloughie is younger manager looking to the future with his "different play style", if he was alive he could still manage a top club in today's game.
Manchester United should have begged for cloughie the day Leeds sacked him.. He would've made a great Man united manager then and our bad era in the 1970's might have never happened, and George Best being managed by Cloughie would have worked i think.
Best and Clough could've went to the pub together.
Revie: Clough, as he calls me Revie didn't know them 03:38
Revie: I stated at the time that Brian, I wouldnt call him Clough cause I wouldn't take him down like that. 04:08
Don you just did not even a minute beforehand!! 😂 and he didn't call you Revie he actually said Mr.Revie... Ya senile old dirty cheat.
Good old clough ie. LOVE YA MAN. XX
Don Rieve is still discussing Leeds, yet he's England Manager, and more obessed about Leeds?
There have never been three more 1970’s looking men.
Cloughs achievements superseded Revies.
Revie won more cups
Not only did Johnny Giles enjoy a legal victory v. the David Peace book but Dave Mackay also enjoyed one v. the film version. As a Hollywood lawyer called Fred Leopold used to say, "If you have real people as characters they can have lattes and muffins but they can't say, 'Let's go for a f**k in the bushes'."
Revie won this rumble in the Yorkshire jungle. Mitchell should have thrown in the towel when Clough was nailed over the inane lack of an introductory meeting at Leeds. But Clough had been on the champers all day. This interview is overrated.
Peter Taylor indeed had a brilliant eye for a player but without him and without any money in the pot, Clough kept Forest up for another eleven years. Those years included three top-three league finishes (before 1993 they were never out of the top ten), two League Cup wins, an FA Cup final, and getting cheated out of a UEFA Cup final appearance (1984). Even if he had done nothing else previously, Clough would still be remembered as a top manager.
2 of boros finest sons leeds acted to quick there despite revies views
We’ve seen with United and Arsenal, you can’t take over experienced title winners.
Needs to be somebody close to those teams and have their respect
Spot on - You need to know and understand your staff in any job.
Clough was the bollox and yes he never new the players but he would of sorted it
Could it have been unsettling for the players? Honestly that’s the manager’s job? Teams need to be motivated by a combination of encouragement, and competition to discourage complacency. It’s tough, but realistically that’s life at the top of any profession.
He was a gem
Clough was nothing without Peter Taylor
Love the old Yorkshire music.... regards Australia
Revie what a clown 🤡 manager of a group of hooligans. Leeds had a great chance to learn how to play real football.
Haha fuck off, Leeds were winning titles left right and centre with super Don Revie. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
So weird to hear don say the eire team.
2 great managers say no more.... Tony cuenca
Remember honesty good old days!!!
Two of the great managers ,
When men were men the Buck stopped with them spoke the truth took it on the chin 100%
You're kidding
Leeds loss ima ....
7 weeks!!!
Sniffer clark
To be fair Don revie gave clough respect there
I think there was a mutual respect underneath the differences.
@@alanberkeley7282 I agree totally. I see that now, but I didn't see it then. It was just two different styles. Brian used to like to knock a man's ego down before he built it up again. Don wasn't going to be knocked down by anyone.
Don did manage to win the British Home Internationals in 1975, even managing to beat Scotland 5-1 in what became the annual international between the two nations.
According to Johnathan Wilson Clough was pissed during this interview
He was an alcoholic so not a surprise
@@MarlboroughBlenheim1 wasn't an alcoholic at this time
Leeds machine
Dirty Leeds machine. No class, no style, just thugs
Revie's Leeds were not that successful.
Promotion followed by two league titles, two European trophies, one FA Cup and one League Cup.
Yeah, what a disaster...
And played (v southampton/man u) 1972, some of the finest football ever seen in this country.
I know it was a different era and a more physical ,and aggressive game,but Leeds were a dirty ,team.
Domestically they were the most consistent team during the second half of Revie's reign - even more so than Shankly's Liverpool or Nicholson's Spurs. And he did that despite spending less on players in 13 years than Clough did in 7 weeks.
Overrated
Love Clough - but no way he could have been England manager, would have been a disaster
I'm one of the few people who thought the FA were right not to give him the England job.
@@ppuh6tfrz646 Yeah, would have been a total disaster for all involved
@@yingyang1008 I think Clough was better suited to working with players on a daily basis, building a team spirit amongst a group who then played to their strengths.
He wouldn't have been able to do this with players he only saw occasionally.
In any case, he wouldn't have achieved anything with England - our players just weren't good enough in those days to compete on the international stage.
France, West Germany, Holland, Brazil, Argentina and Italy were far more talented than we were.
Why?
Robson was a better manager at international level I think and did wonders at Ipswich earning him the England job.
Revie... went on to nothing. Clough became a legend.
