Customer Reviews

- Good book
Good book. The only thing I've read that impressed me more was The System by Roy Valentine. I got it here at amazon. You have to read this book.

Rating:

- Not To Be Missed.
Quite simply this is the best book I have ever read. How anyone can slate this book (as a previous reviewer has) is beyond me. Whatever your opinion of Cloughie, you can't deny he's a character.
Anyone who has the slightest interest in football or comedy, because I feel this is a very funny book, cannot afford not to read it!

If you expect a Clough autobiography to be opinionated you will not be disappointed. Clough sums up his career and philosophy well and with humour. As a player and a manager he always had supreme belief in himself and that attitude comes across well in this book. He pulls no punches when he talks about the "cheats" at Leeds, his assessment of John Robertson is spot-on, he describes his parting with Peter Taylor honestly and takes you on up to relegation and his retiring.
I'm a Forest supporter so whilst I never expected not to enjoy this book I still found it hard to put down. Brian Clough IS a football genius. Forest and Derby fans know it. Once you've read this you'll be in no doubt that Brian Clough knows it too.

- Up there with the greats, the man and the book- that is.
As a younger reader I was interseted to find out how good Cloughie was as a player, and he doesn't mind telling you. Ol' big 'ead lives up to his name but there is no way you can argue the facts.

Nobody can and probably never will be able to say that they were as good at what they did in football as this man. Classic stories of the partnership he had with Peter Taylor, his initial summary of John Robertson, and his descriptions of 'hairy arsed' defenders and alike create brilliant humour mixed up with his strong views toward directors and the way in which clubs should be run contrive to make a book of excellent reading.

Rating:

- A ver dissappointing read
I found this book to be very disappointing. The stories he brings up are sometines so bizarre that its hard to take them seriously. He has obviously been told that he's a great manager one to many times and the tag Old Big Ed is pretty much on the line. He talks about hiself as if he had saved football from dying out. Rubbish
