About the Author Brian Clough was born in 1935 and scored 251 league goals in 274 appearances for Middlesbrough and Sunderland. . He died in Derby City Hospital on 20 September 2004
This special edition contains two new chapters, written shortly before he died, which offer his candid and entertaining views on club directors and chairmen and on Newcastle's treatment of Sir Bobby Robson, as well as his scathing analysis of England's recent performances. This overwhelming affection and respect was fully deserved for the man who was often described as being controversial, outspoken and opinionated. A memorial service due to be held at Derby Cathedral had to be moved to Pride Park to accommodate the fans' demand for tickets. His achievements in football speak for themselves: he took two lowly Midlands sides to the very top, winning two consecutive European Cups, with unfashionable Nottingham Forest, in a feat that will surely never be matched by a club of similar stature.

David Stevens said We've lost the best!. When I first received this book from Amazon I was thinking that having also read Clough, The Autobiography, also from Amazon, it was going to be somewhat repetitious. It wasn't. Of course there are still wonderful insights into his exploits at Leeds United, Nottingham Forest and his beloved Derby County which are themselves fascinating, poignant and humorous, but this book delves more into his upbringing, family and his battle with drink that hasn't been seen before, right up to the time he sadly passed away. I really enjoyed this book.It . "Interesting" according to SweetPea. I haven't finished reading it. If you are really interested in Clough, this is good because he tells his story in his own words.. Awesome tj This book was ordered as a Christmas gift for my son. The book arrived on time in perfect condition. It's a great story.
