I was in Nottingham at the time of the anniversary of the death of the great man. The base of the statue in the centre of Nottingham was adorned with flowers and scarves,not just of Forest but of other sides too.
Mark I can believe that because he was loved by every true football fan. He was robbed by the FA by sir Bert millichip of England job when Ron Greenwood was given the managers job and his name wasn't even on the shortlist for an interview disgusting but true. I'm a West Ham fan and it's like Bobby Moore every truthful football fan loved him but in a different way.
@@keith79mod11 Yes,he was too much of a "Free Spirit"or not enough of a"boot licker"for them...Totally ridiculous!! They might have f##king won something with him in charge..
I met Mr Clough once when I got a 3 pound 50 ticket to Old Trafford (6th round of the FA cup) 1-0 Forest (Roy Keane scored) Mr Clough walked in and I stood up to attention like a guardsman! He was terrifying but he is still my idol! Never forget you Brian! Best manager England never had!
I wish I had the chance to see him in person. So many things i would love to have asked him and I'm confident that he would've answered them too. A man of the people and always generous with his time ❤️🏴⚽️
@@weekendwarriorprospecting817 I was lucky enough to bump into him after his retirement when he was helping out at his son Simons newsagent in West Bridgford. Whoever said you should never meet your heroes was wrong. I was a bumbling wreck but he shook my hand warmly, gave me time for a brief chat and even called me "young man". Will never ever forget that moment till my final breath.
The greatest England manager we never had.deemed unsuitable by the top brass.had we appointed clough I've no doubt about it,we would have won the World Cup
He was deemed unsuitable by one man; Harold Thompson. He was the dictatorial head of the FA. He alone decided that Clough would not be England manager when Revie left in 1977. He alone appointed the yes-man Ron Greenwood. He knew that if Clough was England manager then his days as the dictator were over.
You’ve got to say hand on heart one of Englands greatest ever mangers ..charismatic ..belligerent all rolled into one. He will be spoken about for ever more in the game..True LEGEND ⚽️
Excellent story, Clive Tyldesley always seems to enjoy commentating on the game and for his natural enthusiasm and love of the game he is my favourite commentator..
I remember watching Forest v my side, Cardiff City, not so long after he took over and they were different gravy. I guessed then they would go onto glory but didn't think they would do quite as well. Clough is legend of the game and badly missed by us, the fans
Nottingham Forest, average second division club before Clough, average second division club after Clough, EUROPEAN CHAMPIONS when he was their manager. Point proven.
David Marchant he outstayed his welcome. When the premier league was in its infancy, and exploded in wealth, Forest were a big boy in the league, it was a land grab and they were up there challenging. A couple of seasons in, Clough was dragging them down. In the late 70s and throughout the 80s he was, for me, undisputably the best manager in the world. But by the early 90s, well I don't need to spell out the problems he has outside of football that he dragged into Forest and dragged them down .... should have been replaced sooner, I think
Great days. Loved going to watch Forest in those days, we were mainly hopeless apart from Duncan McKenzie but good atmosphere at games despite small crowds. BC was like a breath of fresh air on and off the field!!
I met Cloughie when I was after a ticket to Man Utd away in the FA cup 6th round in the 80's! He walked by me and I was terrified! I stood up like a guardsman at attention! He had something about him! I will never forget that as I got a ticket for 3 pounds fifty! Great man and my hero! I had long hair and looked like a scruff bag! He still did the right thing though! Love you Brian!
By giving way and buying the tie he 'owned' Clive forever. Still Clough did buy the tie. Strange personality Mr Clough. He pulled much the same stunt with the Forest coach driver once. Clough stopped the bus for the team to go for an impromptu run round a park and told the driver he had to go too as if he drove the bus for the best team in the land he had to be the fittest bus driver in the land!
Hi Clive, its been a long time, but i too have some stories about Brian.....think we travelled together on a few of their plane journeys abroad 79/80........mainly eastern block for me.... Sadly the other Brian T passed away a few months ago, but met Martin J again. Cheers
It’s like the scene in Casino where Ace wants an equal number of blueberries in each muffin. Top managers in any area know that it’s the details that’ll make or break you.
Best story I heard was an apprentice was tidying up the boot room and answered the phone when it rang. Young man, this is Brian Clough, make a cup of tea and bring it to my office. The apprentice answered f**k off and slammed the phone down. The phone rang again, do you know who I am? Yes Mr Clough, do you know who I am? No, I don’t young man. Well, f**k off again. Phone slammed down again. Great man manager, who had his set of standards, and stuck to them. Only manager I know who would substitute his best player of the day if he thought he had been rude to the ref.
+simon connell Busby, Shankley, Paisley and Ferguson were all great managers. I don't think Clough was as good.... He was better. I don't think any of the aforementioned managers could have achieved what he did at Forest. That will never be done again anywhere in world football. The man is, was and always will be the greatest. An absolute genius.
Agreed but Ferguson was better he did it in Scotland and then went to United and we all know Wat he did there he changed the way football was both very good and clough would off been England manager English football would ov changed for the better
I don't personally agree that Ferguson was "Better" admittedly he won everything there was to win but to do it at United who were back then the biggest club on the planet with biggest chequebook and a reputation that attracted all the biggest players in the world. Nowadays United are no longer the biggest and other clubs have more money to spend. Cough did everything on a shoes string budget and won back to back European titles (something that ferguson failed to achieve) with players that were deemed over the hill and no other club wanted. The same feat would be to take Preston (who are currently in the same spot that forest were when cough took charge) gaining promotion from the championship then winning the premier next season followed by back to back champions league titles. I doubt Ferguson could have done that. It will never happen again. Money has ruined the sport.
He`s fine as a commentator but annoys the hell out of me cos he always says Alec Ferguson instead of ALEX , I remember in snooker , John Virgo always said Alec Higgins, equally annoying !!!
Yes I love those type of values sadly I've got some good ones but I've got lots of bad ones too .I wish I had been taught very early in !ife about the bad ones .I never ever smoked .or told dirty jokes in front of females .and never hit a girl.I learnt that from my parents but they also taught me that's it's ok to gamble and drink.those two demons led me to compulsive gambling and alcoholism.Not had a drink for 15 years now but it has done a lot of damage to my mental state and health and gambling lost me my family all my hard earned money and their was a small fortune and most of all IT LOST ME AS A DECENT MAN

Standards from top to bottom.. Brian Clough was a God. He'll be spoken about in a 100 years time... great man sorely missed. God speed sir.

What a legend Cloughie was. And a decent impression of him by Tyldesley.
Anecdotes about Clough, such as this, are like gems to be treasured.
I always think they sound funnier when people impersonate the way he spoke.
Players joined Clough's Forest as players, left as Legends.
The man with one of the most recognisable voices in football. The Champions league isn’t the same without Clive
Absolutely
There will never be another Brian Clough. He was a one off, the greatest ever manager, always in the top one 😎👍🏻
Only one Brian Clough!
There's a big void where he once was. It was just a joy growing up with Mr Clough managing in football.
Clive Tyldesley's impression of Cloughie is one of the best I've heard
Dean saunders one is funny
Mark crossley is just as good lol
Incredible manager,I love listening to Brian Clough stories .
it's always weird seeing the commentator's face aswell as his voice
Clough charismatic man with strong principles.....nothing wrong with that.....
Fantastic story ,keep them coming regards Australia
Absolutely wonderful story, wonderfully told.
Standards are important. You’re there to work and if you look smart you’ll feel smart.
The greatest England manager we never had.deemed unsuitable by the top brass.had we appointed clough I've no doubt about it,we would have won the World Cup
We'd have won it twice in a row
He was deemed unsuitable by one man; Harold Thompson. He was the dictatorial head of the FA. He alone decided that Clough would not be England manager when Revie left in 1977. He alone appointed the yes-man Ron Greenwood. He knew that if Clough was England manager then his days as the dictator were over.
Good Brian Clough impression.
Ha ha, fantastic! Loved this story and so typical of Cloughie!
I love any Brian Clough story its infectious. What a legend of the game...
Look up the story about the getto blaster and Wimbledon. The funniest ever 👍👍👍
this story has me beaming 12 at night, being all alone. What a man!
You’ve got to say hand on heart one of Englands greatest ever mangers ..charismatic ..belligerent all rolled into one. He will be spoken about for ever more in the game..True LEGEND ⚽️
I was there in the main stand on his last day at Forest as a manager. It was a very sad occasion.
Best commentator ever Mr Tyldesley
Excellent story, Clive Tyldesley always seems to enjoy commentating on the game and for his natural enthusiasm and love of the game he is my favourite commentator..

He turns lads into men what a legend who wouldn't wanna play under his tenure ship
Leeds utd
Nottingham Forest, average second division club before Clough, average second division club after Clough, EUROPEAN CHAMPIONS when he was their manager. Point proven.
yes and no
your point is ? we have 2 european cups from 3 seasons

Twice!
The Premier league has only been around since 1992.
Great days. Loved going to watch Forest in those days, we were mainly hopeless apart from Duncan McKenzie but good atmosphere at games despite small crowds. BC was like a breath of fresh air on and off the field!!
Fantastic story! Legend of a man Brian Clough! dx
Priceless story, well told and the accent was spot on. Never heard this one thank you.
So he gave me a pound note 😂 the nostalgia. I still have a cheeky pound note. How can u not? It's good to look back on simpler times
I met Cloughie when I was after a ticket to Man Utd away in the FA cup 6th round in the 80's! He walked by me and I was terrified! I stood up like a guardsman at attention!

Love you Brian!
Clough was such an original. There are very few left in our modern PC world.
Brian Clough a one of a kind, great story
Fantastic bloke. Pity there aren't more around like Mr Brian Clough these days in football.
Agreed...we'd have much less of the shameful antics from so-called "stars" too.
What nice story would make anyone smile,
simply the best commentator in the world.
great story, keep em coming
Brilliant Genius.A great manager.
Peter Taylor doesn't get enough credit for Clough's success. Look at Clough's record without him.
I disagree. I think anyone who has a little knowledge of Clough, understand the importance of Taylor. I do anyway.
clive the legend getting told off by another legend.......classic
the best english commentator i've listenned to. too bad i don't get to listen to him that often in our region's sport network ..
I love Brian Clough with every part of my soul ❤️
Absolute legend, his achievements are outstanding - he's one of the greatest football men this country has ever seen.
Brian Clough wasn't bad either!
The voice of the champions league nights.
We still miss you Brian :(
i thought at the end he was going to say.."it has to be a plain tie" with clive having some fancy design one on :P
bRIAN THE BUFF cLOUTH TOTAL LEGEND BABE THANKS BUDDY ENJOY THE PROMOTION!!!
Lovely! 🤣
Standards, on and off the pitch.
The best England manager we never had.
Love it
Wonderful..

Brian Clough, the best manager England never had.
this music... it´s sooo creepy
Its not the BBC, it was from a website called ChannelBee.com which Tim Lovejoy and others from Soccer Am were involved with back in 2008/9.
Don’t like the music it’s sounds like something from the woman in black
Blimey , so .... you're awake , yeah ?
@@halcyon289 its not the actual jim morrisson...
Its his younger brother john
Jeez...
@@bigdogtabooya5426 ??
Superb
That was brilliant 😂
Gentleman dad human legend
All football fans love cloughy
Hi Clive, its been a long time, but i too have some stories about Brian.....think we travelled together on a few of their plane journeys abroad 79/80........mainly eastern block for me.... Sadly the other Brian T passed away a few months ago, but met Martin J again.
Cheers
Clive Tyldesley no 1 commentator by far pitty he will not be on our telly much at the moment
Fantastic
Only Brian could do things like that!
Great Clough story.
Cloughie needed Taylor though. As a team they were the best. E.g the signing of Archie Gemmil, nurturing Robbo and buying Francis. Genius
It’s like the scene in Casino where Ace wants an equal number of blueberries in each muffin. Top managers in any area know that it’s the details that’ll make or break you.
You have to laugh ... Forest could sure do with him now ...
This comment isn’t ageing well
If your going to do it, do it with style! Great man, difficult, but great....
great story
great impression
lovely story
Clive T sounded like the bloke Gordon Brittas from Brittas Empire when trying to mimmick Brian C.
Cloughie sounds like the funniest guy ever.
yes he is!
Football is so sterile without Clough; we will never see his like again for sure.
Oh what a GOAL!!!
epic FIFA comment
clive tyldsley is sure the best and john motson he was good aswell
Only Mr Clough.
In today’s age the reporter would say they were bullied into buying the tie and the manager would have to refund them and apologise publicly...
Cloughie gave him a quid to buy it!
With all the stories I've heard about Brian Clough I'm surprised he I didn't ask for the money back
He sounds like his voice is 'put on'
They broke the mould when they made Cloughie!
Wasn't Clive Tyldesley in Coronation Street???
You are thinking of Richie Benaud and he was cricket, anyway...
Will never forget "Can manchester united score they always score" line from 1999 CL final before corner which lead to first goal.
Clive couldn't take the hint after the second time.

Get your hands out of your pockets young man. 😂

The greatest ?...probably...RIP great man...

Yes money has clough was funny what he did at forest was unbelievable and at Derby everyone has there own view shame wat happened to him
clough was nothing without taylor?
Clive Tyldesley does a great Clive Tyldesley impression, but no other expression.
He`s fine as a commentator but annoys the hell out of me cos he always says Alec Ferguson instead of ALEX , I remember in snooker , John Virgo always said Alec Higgins, equally annoying !!!
He's on Fifa 12 :)
'Clive Tyldesley' and 'brilliant' in the same sentence? Jesus, never thought I'd see that.

I'm sure someone would've made money out of BC stories like the time he had a cup of tea etc
genius
