  • Brian Laws played for six seasons at Nottingham Forest under Brian Clough. From the moment, he thought he was being pranked when Clough called him to sign, to his management career in all four English divisions - including his dramatic fall-out with Italian star Ivano Bonetti - Lawsy gives you the full story. Including how he got his own back on former Liverpool striker John Aldridge!

    I really do believe that Brian Clough favourite part of the job was making young lads dreams come true and nurturing them all like he would his own children..I don’t think a manager will ever hold that amount of power at a club ever again...I really miss those days..Thankyou for this ❤️

    My fondest memory of you and lawsy working together chippers when you did a facebook video standing over the river next to Middlesbrough’s stadium. You quoted “there’s an old decrepit wreck that’s seen better days (the camera was on the old cargo ship). No not that one, Brian Laws is here”. I remember Brians face was such a picture and told you that wasn’t funny, the banter between you two on brought so much funny times when times were difficult to watch Forest. But you guys always find a way to make us listeners laugh. 😂
    Brilliant interview yet again mate
