Term-X 7,891 Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 Brian CloughArguably the finest man-manager, he was a character who wasn't afraid to speak his mind. He took Derby & Nottingham Forest, two underachieving clubs from obscurity and turned them into national and European champions. With Nottingham Forest, Clough won the European cup back to back. A true legend, and unlike other great managers he had charisma."I wouldn't say I was the best manager in the business. But I was in the top one" ___Brian Clough Anyone else got a favourite manager (of any era) for whatever reasons? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Term-X 7,891 Posted March 5, 2011 Author Share Posted March 5, 2011 http://stagevu.com/video/jyrdkynwpzidGood documentary/film about the experience of Derby & LeedsYea seen that, Great movie.It's based on the controversial novel. One of the former Leeds players sued the author, and Cloughs own family said most of it was bullshit. The movie was much better though, the director even consulted with Brian's wife for a more accurate portrayal.This is a quality documentary from 2009. It was aired on channel 4, around the time the movie was coming out.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomo 21,751 Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 Ive always been a fan of Sven, whats happened recently in the England set up makes you realise how good a job he did for England.All of a sudden 3 q/f exit's (twice on pens due to the brilliant Ricardo and once to argubally the greatest international team off all time) actully look a brilliant achievement in comparision to how McClaren did and Cappelo is doing.Also his work at Leicester is second to none.

Ollie 4,400 Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 Ian HollowaySir Bobby RobsonAnd in a lesser extent i likePhil BrownNeil WarnockRoberto Martinez Kevin KeeganNot really sure why but i hope they do well for their true desire, passion and love for the game. With Martinez, i like how he's took Wigan from long ball wank to a pretty decent footballing side. Just hope he sorts his defence out and they could be a mid table team.
