Synopsis
In 1975 Brian Clough had gone from being football’s most exciting young manager to being seen as impossible to work with after walking out on Derby County, leaving Brighton under a cloud, and being sacked as manager of Leeds United after just 44 days. His only offer of work came from a run down second division club called Nottingham Forest whose brief glory days in the 1950s were seen as well behind them. It was predicted that Clough would last less than a season but in five he’d won a remarkable two European Cups consecutively and produced one of the greatest domestic football teams in the game’s history. With interviews from every player of that remarkable side this documentary tells how Clough pulled off the greatest team story ever told. Using unseen footage of games and the great man himself from that period, they tell us about his remarkable man management and how he convinced a team of players, largely written off by the fans and media, to beat the world’s best.
