Brian Clough RIP

I know there are a couple of Forest fans amongst our brethren and most of us grew up in the "now listen here young man" era and although not entirely surprising it was still a shock when Cloughie died last week. He was a true great, and his achievements will surely never be matched again and that's only as a manager, he was a decent goalscorer too - he did score 267 goals in 296 games for Middlesbrough & Sunderland.

As someone has already said can you imagine, for instance that Alan Pardew gets West Ham promoted, then wins the Premiership with them. Then a few years later goes to Millwall, gets them promoted too, wins the Premiership, then wins the Champions League, twice! Take a look at this wonderful obituary.
