- When Brian Clough died in the autumn of 2004 at the age of 69, the world of football mourned one of the greatest managers of all time. In this film, recorded as he received the Freedom of the City of Derby award in May 2003, Clough says being the manager of Derby was 'the best job I ever had'. Also included is an emotional final tour of the scene of many of his Derby triumphs, the now demolished Baseball Ground, plus extracts from a memorial service for the great man at Derby County's new home, Pride Park Stadium, in October 2004.

people always used to say he was arrogant. Listen to him speak and it is all "them", "us", "we". Not "I", except when he is ridiculing himself. Great orator. Amazing how genius's can leave school early.
most schools stifle the brain.. not watering it..
Finally someone else can see his mentality. Makes some of the most complicated things in life sound so simple
I remember him, and he is a God to me. He most certainly was arrogant, but why is that seen as negative ? His achievements speak for him, and the statements and memories of his peers only add weight to this legendary man's humanity, decency and talent. Big deal, so he was arrogant, so what?
He even remembered who tiled the floor of the corridor in the dressing room and where they were based. What a character. Rest in peace Mr clough.
What a man. I'm glad history remembers him as the inspirational genius he was.
I have always enjoyed listening to Brian clough. Was lucky enough to be born in 1959 and to have the pleasure of watching him on TV for many years. Great insights and no bull, what a star.
Thanks for posting. I was 19 when I joined up and couldn't go to every home game any more. Clough and Taylor used to arrive in the car park at Forest, just as I did after walking to the ground off of the Barton bus from Leicester. BC used to scan the crowd and only parents with children would approach him. He had an aura. I regret not having the nerve to try and speak to him. They were halcyon days.
What a great man and manager sorely missed
Lovely shots of Mr Clough and Dave MacKay. Two legends of football. R.I.E.P
Everything an English working class man should be, massive respect.
What a lovely decent honest truthful human being , yes tears from a grown man remembering a legend and THE greatest manager ever
Sorely missed, thank you for this wonderful tribute to the greatest manager in my lifetime.
His ability was getting the best out of every footballer he was exposed to, producing 2 great club sides in Derby and Forest-but his most endearing quality was his sense of humour and ability to make anyone he met, feel he was their friend if he liked them,ego aside he made the world he touched a better place- Cheers to you Brian!
Brian did it his way. As do I. They may knock me and dislike me but I will do things on my terms. I'm worst at what I do best.
Massive respect to Mr Cough’s incredible achievements. Probably will never be surpassed. Football needs characters, and there was none bigger. From a Spurs fan.
His name was Clough.
A Yorkshire legend! The best of. Wonderful memories. RIP Brian Clough!
A Truely Great Man never ever Forgotten !
Today the label of legend is given out to easily... Brian Howard Clough WAS a LEGEND no one could do what he did ... If we had him as England manager we would have won the world cup..
Am a Chelsea fan and remember this man clough. Very true the man who should have been England manager. Controversial but brilliant with Peter Taylor.
Done it at Notts Forest. League title and 2 European Cups.
Enjoyed this video of memories.
Thank you Brian for all the laughs but essentially for your Honesty.
Truly magical.
RIP is late but Brian you will always be remembered.
Awesome video, Brian is an absolute legend, I'm a Watford fan but have always liked derby and cloughie.
forest forever thanks for the loan of your German player
I feel the same affinity, but for Forrest - so glad that they're back where they belong and wish Wayne Rooney all the best with the Rams. All this from a proud Baggies fan.
It's easy to recognize a great manager. A great manager will produce a great team to play the game in the correct way. Brian Clough you were a great manager. Much loved and missed. R I P sir
I met Brian in July 1974 first day at Leeds your late Mr clough said the steward as he drove into the Ground he had just come back from Spain with his family, Just look after my 2 kids he said to me I'm going to sort this lot out as he took training he invited me in for a drink later in his office ,Happy memories for me 😊
As well as being a great manager he was also one of the funniest personalities on TV in his heyday. Always good value.
Legendary people are few and far between. Sometimes you have to bow to genius.
To the family of “Mr Clough” Be proud, very proud, you are blessed to be related to a such a “Legend”
Very glad this popped up on my CZcams. As a Derby lad who's lived abroad for many years now and who grew up hearing stories of Clough, this made me long for home.
Well where to start, what a fantastic documentary. It told the lot from the early days to the later ones.It's been said many times but I will say it again the best England manager we never had . I only had the pleasure and privilege to meet him in person once.He was an absolute gentleman( I met him in Rotterdam when he was commenting on a certain European cup final) what a man
Brilliant spoke his mind and told them straight..loved him.and I'm a celtic fan..never be another like him.
A real man that transcends all times.
People throw throw the word legend around, but himself and Peter Taylor were truly a legendary pair.
Sadly missed. A very great man of very great days
Despite his tough personality underneath he was a nice sensitive man
Being remembered the way he should be, RIP Brian
Not a Derby or forest fan I am 57 .and grew up with Brian about .you have to be moved by this rest in peace Mr clough
YET I LOVE BRIAN (THE GOD) CLOUGH
Clough and Bobby Robson, best English managers ever.
The best manager that not only England, but my Chelsea too, never had.
He had no equal and never will do.
Brian Clough,Cloughie poem.... brought tears to my eyes.. Thank You Mrs Clough,and hats of to the Poet🇬🇧🥰🔥
Beautiful and magnificent tribute to a great man
ONE OF MY ALL TIME HEROS THE WORD LEGEND IS USED LOOSELY THESE DAYS BUT NOT IN HIS CASE THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER A COMPLETE ONE OFF WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER
A special man. Humanity is only gifted a certain amount of the talented and charismatic; we should learn to appreciate more whilst they are amongst us.
In my opinion not only a great man but the greatest football manager bar none.
Fantastic and very emotional, what a lovely family
one of the last of the great characters, quite apart from HIS achievements he has been, and continues to be, an absolute legend and inspiration to many
we were lucky to see him
The greatest British football manager of all time.
the greatest pf them all
The greatest England manager who never was
Brian Clough - the greatest football manager of all time
RIP Brian, and RIP Barbara too.
Brian was a legend, and Barbara was lovely for a few years after him too.
I have always found Brian Clough absolutely fascinating. Mesmerising.
❤
beautiful documentary. RIP to a great man. A national treasure.
Great Man Did alot for the people of both Derby and Nottingham.
Got a tear in my eye's
Well I shed tears watching all of that and I am now, he would kick me up the arse for that I know. He was Simply the best 👌🏻
I remember watching a game when it was invaded by D heads and Brian clough slapped one around the ears 👂 what a guy. All the great stars are fading out, so sad.
Alcohol cut his career and life short, he was a great manager and his teams played good football ,he got the best out of players John Robertson was a prime example ,along with Ken BURNS ,Larry Lloyd they were revitalised under Clough and Taylor
If this guy had been England manager we would have won at least one more World Cup, possibly a European one too. But it was never going to happen because he's not a yes man. R.I.P Cloughie the Best Manager England never had. 🏴🏴
real men did exist.. & it wasn't that long ago
#rip Clough 🙏
The FA missed a trick not giving him the England job.
I use to think that, but the more I listen to ex players I think he would of rubbed the international boys up the wrong way. Still think he was brilliant but maybe not for England, he would of been better for the other home nations
@@plymouthrock5281 Different time's I know but I would have loved to have seen him pulling David Beckham into his office at the England team HQ for a chat! ... CLOUGH- "listen hear silver bollocks or whatever they call you,I don't give a fuck who your missus is or how many fancy hairstyles and tattoos you have, you're my player now and you either do as I say or I'll sign Ryan Giggs". . BECKHAM-"but he's Welsh and plays in a different....". CLOUGH-"exactly now fuck off young man and take that fucking earing out, your supposed to be a footballer not a gay fashion model"!!!!
@@kayeb222 yeah, that would be nice
The FA had no say in the matter whatsoever. Harold Thompson was the chairman of the FA at that time and what he said went. He was a dictator. He had already told Ron Greenwood that he had the job before Clough was interviewed in 1977.
@@kayeb222*times.
Pure gold!!
God bless and thank you. X
People mistook his sense of humour and straightforwardness for arrogance. A wonderful man he was and a great coach.
Rea's cafe in Middlesborough ,was that musician Chris Rea parents place ?,
LEGEND
The greatest English ( not England ) football manager ever
Nottingham Forest the ONLY club to have more European Cups than they do League Titles.
On that school team photo that's my dad on the left of the keeper as u look .Marton grove school team grove hill Boro .
Thank you for posting this.
I like Brian Clough but he does come across as a bit irritating in the Pride Park forum.
Britain's no 1
Genius
Legend.
A beautiful human being ❤ god bless brian 🙏
Im lucky enough to have grown up when he was forest boss
RIP MR CLOUGH 🙏
Truly one of a kind a legend a icon truly one the games greats
What a great man !!!.
How to completely ruin a Clough quote! The very last words of the whole video too. “I wouldn’t say I’m the best manager but I’m in the top one” was the superb quote and certainly wasn’t “I wouldn’t say I’m the best manager but I’m number one for sure”.
How much a goal scorer with a record like his would be worth now?
34:45 Clough bears more than a passing resemblance to Leonid Brezhnev here!
A gifted gabber
Took them a long time to give him the freedom of the city. They hand it out to anyone these days!!!
I've never classed Middlesbrough as Yorkshire. Either Teeside or Cleveland.
Because you're a kid. You probably don't think Liverpool and Manchester aren't in Lancashire either. Never mind about 900 years of history as long as your 40 years counts eh?
@@keithbentley6081 well no Liverpool's Merseyside, and depending what part of Manchester some of it Cheshire some parts Lancashire. And the rest of Yorkshire are beside themselves, when Middlesboro is supposed to be Yorkshire. Momothshire use to be England, is now Wales. Grimsby use to come under Humberside is now north east Lincolnshire.
He would have won England the world Cup genius
Why are the forest years glossed Over
because this video was his final tour of the old baseball ground before it was demolished a few months later and the tour was the same day he got his freedom of the city of derby by the council so why would forest need to be discussed.The final parts of the video are the pride park memorial night.
@@rampantram1 Some people need to be spoon fed at all times....FFS...I applaud your patience.
At 45.25 Did I hear right? Cloughie calls himself a "proud Yorkshireman". I thought he was born and raised in Middlesborough.
North riding of yorkshire .Middlesbrough
Spoken like a true southerner?
The Geordies and mackems usual chant is your just a small team in Yorkshire 😁 that school team pic my dad's on the left of the keeper as u look cloughy sat middle front .Marton grove school team grove hill .
To take a small club into Europe and win it not just once but twice will always stay with me, and I don't support Forest.
Clive Thomas a bad refereeing decisions Everton semi final 77 and WC Brazil 78 Bloody BIG MISTAKES twice
How many of them are stil, not invaded ? He'd hate that.
Every single one of you (including the preists needs to read it)
Cloughie looking very ill
Dixie Dixon pisses all over everyone in goalscroring achievements
You mean Dixie Dean ?
Some drunken rants in that 2002 interview make it a very sad end, the man clearly had a problem with drink.
No shit Sherlock. How many league titles and European cups have you won? Delete your shit comment asap!
@@keithbentley6081 no I don't think I will, given the tone you've taken I think you've been hitting the bottle as well.
Cloughie was given an OBE but never a knighthood or peerage; this may have offended his socialist roots?
Bloody derby shity county Clough's real stardom and fame came with forest not sheep
Another jealous red, first you pinch our manager, then you pinch half of the Derby team who played for cloughie, then you come out with a crass comment that is below any football fan even a red.Then you don't even mention Peter Taylor who played an equal part at both Derby and Forest.
24.17 the worst footballer I ever saw- form Hartlepool to Nottingham, he was shite
BTW: would you post a photo of your Championship and European Cup winners medals please?
His goal scoring stats says different
