The Football Ramble’s Guide To… Brian Cl...

About this episode

Imagine a manager who avoided the sack by telling the chairman to eff off and sack himself. Allow us to introduce you to one Brian Clough…


Marcus, Jim and Vish discuss how he not only carried Nottingham Forest to two consecutive European Cup triumphs – and, more impressively, once got away with punching Roy Keane – but did it with a staggering amount of self-assuredness. We explore his managerial career, one that was as complicated as it was compelling.
