Psycho said in his autobiography that Cloughie brought him both a broken iron and a kettle for him to fix. He initially advised him that it would be a lot cheaper for him to simply replace them but Cloughie then accused him of being a fraud 😂

Saunders is full of BS unfortunately. He's was well known for being a joker in his playing days.

my favorite clough quote is , when asked how he deals with player disagreements he said "well we go into my office and discuss it for twenty minutes and decide i was right "!

What a legend, I am to young to witness what he did first hand but I am so thankful for what he did for our club

The fact is that people older than fifty in Norway tells Clough-stories.......true legend..

Every story you hear about Clough. Every confrontation he has with people supposedly more “superior” to him. Every mindset he has with players, coaches, owners, proves to me he was a man of incredible intelligence, wisdom and outstanding management of people skills. A legend undoubtedly. Loyal, yes. An enemy……no thank you!

What a manager pure class

A great manager, what he did at a club of Forest's size was amazing and you certainly don't get characters like that in football today, he had more personality in his little toe than modern managers do today.

What's missing from today's football, and today's society in general, is the kind of genius, humour and personality that Brian Clough had.

He was some character, no doubt about it. I admired what he and Peter Taylor did for putting Nottingham on the map big time regarding football. And I am a Notts County Fan. You are missed Cloughy.

Mark crossley has loads of cloughie stories and he's spot on with the voice.... imagine what a GRT England manager cloughie would of been...gutted...but what a character..

Brian clough would have got England the world Cup if he'd been given the opportunity to manage the England team

Brian Clough should have a Prime Minister. He would have every leader in the world confused, terrified and laughing at the same time while making UK the richest country in the world.

Mark Crossley is much better at it

If poor old Cloughie tried that today with the spoiled brat brigade, they would have stormed out the moment he mentioned they were a fraud, saying "Speak to my agent. I don't play for you I play for myself. I want a transfer. It says in my contract I can go. You've broken me mentally and I will be asking for compensation. You've also cheapened my image and therefore my image rights will now suffer and the value of the shares of my naff fashion clothes empire will take a tumble for which I will also be seeking compensation". In the real world Stuart Pearce produced a screwdriver and replaced Cloughies fuse to his wife's iron, ensuring he still played on Saturday! I know which world I prefer.

If he was alive and managing today that iron would have been thrown at someone and rightly so. He believed in good honest football just like Bill Nicholson. Very few managers like him today. I'm a Spurs fan but admire his honesty and beliefs in how the game should be played. If a player got sent off he didn't argue about it. If a player had a bad game he was dropped the next game. Modern day players wouldn't last 5 minutes if they played under Bill Nic and Cloughie.

@athlone1975

Am I right in thinking if a player got booked Clough would drop him for the next game? No characters in the game like Clough now. He was a once off. A genius. His sides always played good football. A man of high principles. Didn't always live up to them himself mind but then we are all human and his intentions were good.

Superb. But Stuart Pearce got the gist of the Cloughie chat and fixed the iron and presented it to the Gaffer.Today`s players would have had a tantrum and walked out. That`s why managers like Clough and players like Pearce are gone forever. The Premier League has created that situation and football is the poorer for it.

Oi Talksport can we have more of these visual stories please, they're literally THE BEST things ever

These are the things missing in football at the moment. The void left by Brian Clough will never ever be filled

And well done Stuart Pearce for joining in. And all other players too. You just know the halfwitted,humourless,special ones that coaches, who'm are AFRAID of these youngsters by the way, would'nt have a fucking clue why they should toe the line. Warnock is the closest we've got today. Clough, genius.

Cloughie really is ‘the special one’.

To say that the world is a poorer place without him is a gross understatement.

I miss clough, never be another like him,

the one and only mr brian clough

Growing up from a kid through late 70s into 80s and into 90s, It’s Hard to take in a Way ,that Brian Clough is no longer with us ..He really was a Genius, a complete one of a kind, the way he would Read people and situations and react was what made him GREAT . The fact that he new football inside and out didn’t even come into, that was just a given.. Would he be able to do it today with players and the way the game is ? Who knows, But I think he would have done what he done in any era regardless because no chairman could bye Brian Cloughs inbuilt Wisdom you’ve either got it or you’ve not, and he had buckets of it 🌞⭐️🌞⭐️

Love him or hate him which I did you couldn't deny his class, they don't make managers like that no more

Brilliant anecdotes

Cloughie was one "Smooth" operator!!!

What a man

Wonderful story

Legend sadly missed.

Great story great Man.

Brilliant 👏👏👏👏

fantastic sounds a right character 👍

Explains why Nottingham Forrest ended up in trouble towards the end of Cloughs time. As he got older and his drinking problems worsened. He lost touch with reality and his judgement became impaired. Clough in his prime greatest English manager ever.

He was pure class u reddds

What a character....

Todays players would be complaining about their mental health, as opposed to just bloody fixing the iron

Football was genuine back in the days

Only Cloughie could come up with that. Genius or would-be smart-ass not as clever as he thinks he is? I'd go for genius.
