Summary

In interviews ranging from 1972 to 2000, Brian Clough talks about 'the real Brian Clough' - how he is perceived by other people, his bluntness and forceful opinions and what makes him a good football manager. He also discusses the prospect of becoming an MP, his dream job, football hysteria and hooliganism, his childhood and mother's death and being imitated by Mike Yarwood. In addition, he considers what people may say about him after his death, buying football players and having managerial ability, as well as sport on TV, leaving Nottingham Forest and his very public falling out with Peter Taylor.

Disappointed and not worth an Audible credit

I’m a Derby County supporter and very fond of the late Brian Clough. However, this audio book is just a compilation of archive clips that don’t really give you much beyond what is already available on YouTube. I had been hoping for something more.
