If Clough has any sense he'll stay well away from that club whilst it's current cretin is in charge....

He seems a good fit for Burton, who he's already left once before hasn't he?

As Burnleypaul has already said, he'd be daft going to forest.

I'm sure there's the temptation for him to follow in his Dad's footsteps.

Nigel will be off to Forest if they want him a complete no brainer.

Even with all the problems at Forest, it's still a better job to take than the tinpot Burton who will no doubt be relegated.

Seems like a bit of an Eddie Howe.

Wonder if he'll spend his career trying his luck elsewhere then returning to Burton when it doesn't work out.

If Clough keeps Burton up, it will be a much bigger achievement than keeping an underachieving Forest in the Championship.

And sending The Bastards down would be the greatest achievement of all.

Myself, I wouldn't go near Forest with a Barge Pole while Fawaz or whoever is in charge.
