@@DOWNSYNDROMEDRAGQUEENS I believe Dean's story. I think Hill said that because it makes him angry that people tell stories which ridicule Clough and take the piss out of a great manager during the weak moments he suffered late in his career due to illness and alcoholism. You could argue he has a point. I think it highly unlikely Saunders would have made that up. Consider this - if he makes up a story like that and claims Hill, Gemmil and his agent were in the room, clearly any one or all three of them could instantly tell the world it's bullshit. Saunders is intelligent enough to know that. True, for me.

I love Brian Clough. His underlying theory was 'simple'. Keep it simple. Kick the ball, head the ball, keep the ball. Play the game in their half. He could never be replaced. He'd be destroyed in today's game. But that man is why I used to love watching football. You never quite knew what was going to happen. In my opinion. I really can't be bothered watching the game now. It's so predictable. Boring and there are no real personalities. It strikes me as a game played by 'sportsmen' who have been taught that cheating is the only way forward. It's a disgrace......
