The final word on Brian Clough In this first full, critical
biography, Jonathan Wilson draws an intimate and powerful portrait
of one of England's greatest football managers, Brian Clough, and
his right-hand man, Peter Taylor. It was in the unforgiving world
of post-war football where their identities and reputations were
made - a world where, as Clough and Taylor's mentor Harry Storer
once said, 'Nobody ever says thank you.' Nonetheless, Clough
brought the gleam of silverware to the depressed East Midlands of
the 1970s. Initial triumph at Derby was followed by a sudden
departure and a traumatic 44 days at Leeds. By the end of a
frazzled 1974, Clough was set up for life financially, but also
hardened to the realities of football. By the time he was at
Forest, Clough's mask was almost permanently donned: a persona
based on brashness and conflict. Drink fuelled the controversies
and the colourful character; it heightened the razor-sharp wit and
was a salve for the highs of football that never lasted long
enough, and for the lows that inevitably followed. Wilson's account
is the definitive portrait of this complex and enduring man.
