Episode 20: Brian Clough - The Autobiography
Manage episode 439331748 series 3530142
After a couple of technical glitches, it's Episode 20 of the Ademola Bookmen Podcast. And to mark this (kind of) milestone in our podcasting journey, we have indulged Al by delving into the mind of Brian Clough, Nottingham’s most famous man not in tights.
After being forced to retire following a stellar career as a second division striker, Clough became the youngest manager in the football league, when he took over Fourth Division Hartlepools in 1965. It was a less than glamourous beginning to one of the most storied managing careers in English football.
Together with his righthand man, Clough brought lowly Derby County to the English Championship before going one better with their local rivals Nottingham Forest by not only winning the league but also the European Cup. And then retaining it.
It is a remarkable story about a remarkable man. With Al as Peter Taylor to Johnny's Brian Clough, tune in to find out what the Ademola Bookmen thought of it all.
