    I always think it must be Manchester United. Um. Or is it?
  • CarolCarol
    No, Leeds United, Jay.
    Cloughie had a short tempestuous spell there before he moved to our East Midlands clubs (Derby and Nott'm Forest).
    The book upset the Clough family and many fans.

    To me, he's Derby and The Baseball Ground.
  • CarolCarol
    Yes.
    Part of the A52 road is named Brian Clough Way- A52 runs from Nottingham to Derby.
    The old Derby ground was cleared- they play at Pride Park now.

    Ooh thanks Carol!

    Have a few more books to wade through for Uni, then I'm plunging into Red Riding 1977. Sister is buying the DVDs for my birthday (missed it on TV - have to read the books first though!)
