As a Sunderland fan, Alan Brown will never be forgotten. It breaks my heart that the man who thought of Brown as his mentor was never given the chance to manage the club he loved. "I would have crawled up the M1 on my hands and knees over broken glass to be the manager of Sunderland" Brian Clough

Does it also break your heart that Clough is a Smoggie and always will be 😁

Tifo is such a good football channel. You guys deserve 1M+ subs.

Yep I'm falling asleep listening to it.

True legends of the game should never be forgotten.

Football was a popular mass sport before 'the event' for anyone wondering

Of all my years watching Tifo, how have I only just seen this one? Good on him, gotta go hard or go home

He also pioneered the short corner, something we see every day in football. Always puts a smile on my face knowing that. He wrote a book called Team Coach that captured some training methods and tactics, never sold many and didn't get a good production run. But I have few in the attic 😅

Thank you so much for the work you put in to show us why this sport is so beautiful. Especially in these weird times. 🙏🏼

So pleased you made this video, Alan Brown is my hero

The ending line with the music give me chills

Finally, I've been waiting for someone to do a video on this man. Good job guys Did you get it from a fourfourtwo magazine article a couple of years ago may I ask?

As a Burnley fan, it is so good to see some regular Burnley related content on the channel. Great Video! Can't wait until you hit a mil subs

Much like Nigel Pearson's Leicester season

Sunderland is always a rebuilding job.

Where I live it’s 1 in the morning and for some reason I’m wide awake watching Tifo.

Very good video. Thank you.

As a Sunderland fan since the '40s to young to pass comment then, but looking back we should have kept him. The promotion 1964 team would have gone places but was dismantled to make way for Jim Baxter.

Brian Clough was such a beautiful person, he really never forgot Alan Brown.

Foundations are never just constructed out of nowhere

I rewatched every video uploaded before the Atletico basque rule video, it took me 1 year

Just a quick word of Bob Stokoe's name. I've always heard it pronounced STOKE-O going back to my days in The Roker End in the early 70's. Never STOCK-O.

Do a brief history of beckham please, love ur vids bro

Interesting guy

Very big of you to give his four successful years at Wednesday 10 seconds.

nice one

Can you do a "Seattle Sounders FC tactics explained"?!?

Why do all of these figures from Burnley's footballing history have a quirky, USSR-related theme to their names?

Can you do a video on early Victorian Pete 1900 footballers, who were the stars of the day extra please

You guys really need to do a vid on Paul Scholes.

Can you make a video on Fergus Sutter? The English game was a fascinating tv series

I like that statement “there’s more to football than silverware”. It actually rings true, and to a degree, silverware is an inaccurate way to determine how big a club is. Home support would be more accurate, and going by that, Leeds United are bigger than Manchester City. Sure the latter are a bigger name in terms of league status and marketability, but that’s a false way to judge how big a club is.

Brand recognition is what makes a club 'big' - Newcastle get 50,000 home crowds but nobody in Africa is wearing a Paul Dummett replica jersey...to be fair neither is anybody in Newcastle (I am a supporter before you ask)

Leeds weren't regularly getting 30,000 crowds in the 3rd tier, Man City were.

Alan Browne playing for Preston I believe now lol

It’s Stanley Rous, as in Mouse, not as in Moose. Bob Stokoe is pronounced like Stoke, not Stock.

Tifo, Please do a Real Madrid video

I read Brian coughs Mentor

This is at least the second time you've missed pronounced McIlroy (Mac-ill-roy) as McKILLroy 😂

Middlesbrough can do that to a man.

Just wish that Ole doesn't become a brown but a Ferguson.

If 'the history of football is full of Alan Browns', are you sure you got the right one when you made this video?
