Yep we have waited nearly a year and a half for this.

Only took 7 seconds to find the thread by the way

Seen it already and it is a good film those [edit: Behave Darren] Leeds players

Morecambe reject! Apparently he applied for the Morecambe manager job in the early 60's but was turned down for his lack of experience.

Not seen this Motty interview before...

Clough and Taylors relationship was very similar to Sammy and Mark!

just watched it ...brilliant film

Liked watching the program after the documentary .

Brain Clough greatest England boss we never had instead we had dirty revie from dirty Leeds.

What made me laugh was when Clough met his Leeds players after winning with league with derby saying all those medals and caps you won you can chuck it into a skip because you cheated for them.

That is how bosses should be.

He had respect for his players and believed in them

Yeah it obviously filled them with self confidence and belief

cracking film.

makes you realise how much better football was in those days.

All British players and proper tackles and fist fights !

People talk about money is ruining the game and foreigners but this is not the case.

I watched a interview with Clough and John Motson was the presenter and he made Motson look small with his views in refs , chairman's , and money.

TV with the sports coverage is ruining football as in if it was not for the football coverage then players wont get paid 40,000 a week in the premiership and some earn 100,00+.

I do think this man is a best British coach in history he did not really spend any top cash and took teams from bottom on championship to premiership and uefa winner twice .
But one time only with Nottingham Forest and not Derby because the chairman wanted to throw the game vs Leeds due to cup semi in Europe vs juventus.

I think he is the best of all time and should of retired from football after the 91 cup final bye tottenham

Repeated tonight on BBC2 at 11:20

John it is a very good show and i still find it funny what clough first said to his leeds players when taking over from revie so funny,

Thats be the everton boss when he takes over from ferguson

I hadn't realised that Taylor began at Burton Albion, so Nigel starting there, then Derby had links with history on both occasions.

the baseball ground scenes were filmed at saltergate in case you didnt know
brilliant film and ive watched it five times and its still brilliant
