Plot

Dubbed 'The greatest English manager never to manage the England team' Brian Clough, arguably the most charismatic, certainly the most controversial, football manager the country has ever seen, took a down and out Derby County all the way to the top of the then First Division and soon moved on to an infamously short 44 days as manager of Leeds United.
