Re: The Best Footbal Novel Ever ?

As a Derby fan ODM ( was that common knowledge btw )

You would enjoy it , a large part of the book is set in the time when Old Bighead was in charge of Derby County , those were the days....

Just looking at a few classic Clough quotes...

Telling the entire world and his dog how good a manager I was. I knew I was the best but I should have said nowt and kept the pressure off 'cos they'd have worked it out for themselves.
Brian Clough

If I had an argument with a player we would sit down for twenty minutes, talk about it and then decide I was right!
Brian Clough
Beckham? His wife can't sing and his barber can't cut hair.

I miss the old bugger to be honest , okay , he lost the plot in his later years , but in the 70`s - 80`s he was a joy to listen to..
