By Tim Crane Published December 2004 Football lost a unique legend on September 20, 2004, when the inimitable Brian Clough died in hospital in Derby, aged 69. Our new book, The Life of Brian, will hopefully become a lasting tribute to the genius manager who overcame the bitter disappointment of seeing his own playing career tragically cut short by injury to go on and win the two biggest honours in English and European club football. He did it the hard way, guiding two unfashionable clubs to the pinnacle of the domestic game. He did it in style, breaking records on the way. And he did it HIS way. But The Life of Brian does not only cover Clough's remarkable success at Derby and Nottingham Forest. It also reflects, in unique detail, on Brian's amazing goalscoring feats for Middlesbrough and Sunderland (every goal is described), as well as his managerial spells at Hartlepool, Brighton and Leeds. There will never be another Cloughie and if you are a fan of the great man, then The Life of Brian is an absolute must for your bookshelf... Click here read an extract from Dave Mackay's foreword |
