If you're writing about someone whose wife is still alive you should show her some respect and listen to what she has to say.<BR/><BR/>Beth - Yes, but you're biased. Clough's teams played good football. That didn't really fit in with the Leeds way of that time. I don't mind Leeds now but only Leeds fans liked them back then.<BR/><BR/>Rog - When the Damned are united, they will never be divided. 140 year old punks still playing that old boogie woogie like punk never happened.<BR/><BR/>Billy - I think the film is a bit Carry On Cloughie with Jim Dale playing Clough and Sid James playing Revie.Geoffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00340519450159428760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16460150.post-70509934628326297882009-03-19T18:32:00.000+00:002009-03-19T18:32:00.000+00:00I liked the book but apparantely they've toned it ...I liked the book but apparantely they've toned it down for the film.

And Frost was quite happy with that.<BR/><BR/>If Brian Clough had been a sweet, gentle, uncomplicated guy, he wouldn't have won two European Cups. He was a mad genius and probably a bit of an arsehole sometimes. Most of us only get to be one of those, and it's not the first one.Tim Fhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14681067872556519250noreply@blogger.com
