Fantastic interview. Really enjoyed that. Pity there are not more like him. God knows what he would think of players now. Pansies.

He knew how to manage a team and get the best out of them. I remember his interviews after games back in the 70s, they certainly had your attention.

Good manager, but if you had ever had dealings with him then I doubt you'd post that.

Watching him and his team challenge Liverpool was amazing.

Historical proof that even a football genius needs an experienced Peter Taylor to bounce ideas off.

Could be an urban myth but anyone who sticks one on Roy Kean gets my vote. 😂

No question about it he was a much better manager with Peter Taylor then without.

I had a weird conversation with Brian Clough.

I was in a fishing tackle shop pretty much in the same street as the City ground and Clough came in. Apparently he was buying maggots to feed his Koi carp.

We started talking as we waited, and he said he'd told Roy Keane he was going on loan to Burnley 'as a punishment'.

He said Keane refused to go so he sold him to United.

I told you it was weird.

The brown envelope was exactly what it was about as he took money off a destitute non league club.

In the unlikely event that I bump into Keane I'll ask him about it.

He said some other stuff about Keane, which I can't share on a public message board - apart from 'There's only one person in charge of this club, and the one who thinks he was has gone'.

Brian Clough and Peter Taylor managing England would have been very interesting I think.
