0:00:33 > 0:00:36# Glory, glory, Leeds United
0:00:36 > 0:00:39# Glory, glory, Leeds United
0:00:39 > 0:00:43# As the whites go marching on, on, on. #
0:00:48 > 0:00:50# Here we go, Leeds United. #
0:00:50 > 0:00:52Coming in, number two!
0:00:52 > 0:00:53# We're gonna give the boys...#
0:00:57 > 0:01:00This is what's wrong with the place.
0:01:00 > 0:01:02Bye-bye, Hunter.
0:01:02 > 0:01:07- Bremner!- It's sheer bedlam. Oh, dear.
0:01:07 > 0:01:09And now what? More trouble off the ball.
0:01:09 > 0:01:13This match has been riddled with free kicks from the start.
0:01:13 > 0:01:15Leeds have got what they deserved.
0:01:15 > 0:01:18They've taken the FA Cup for the first time.
0:01:18 > 0:01:21Domarski coming up square, number 10.
0:01:21 > 0:01:26And it's there. And England are out of the World Cup.
0:01:26 > 0:01:29The end of an era, Sir Alf Ramsey.
0:01:32 > 0:01:35What sort of manager is the FA now looking for?
0:01:35 > 0:01:38I presume a new... A young...
0:01:38 > 0:01:41With perhaps new ideas and a track-suited manager.
0:02:09 > 0:02:13I'm just gonna make a brief statement. Yesterday afternoon at three o'clock,
0:02:13 > 0:02:20I accepted the FA's offer to become the next manager of the England national football team.
0:02:20 > 0:02:25Now, obviously, this involves me leaving Leeds United,
0:02:25 > 0:02:29after 13 happy and successful years, which makes me very sad.
0:02:31 > 0:02:34I'd like to think I built the club into a family.
0:02:34 > 0:02:37Now, there must be sadness when anyone leaves a family.
0:02:37 > 0:02:43However, when one man leaves, another steps into his place.
0:02:43 > 0:02:47I know who I think that person should be, the man to replace me.
0:02:47 > 0:02:53And I have made my feelings clear to the board of directors. Thank you.
0:02:53 > 0:02:56- No further comments. - Someone from the team?
0:02:56 > 0:03:01- Billy Bremner?- Is it someone from Leeds' team, Mr Revie? - Give us a name, Mr Revie.
0:03:01 > 0:03:04Giles? Is it Johnny Giles? Is it Johnny Giles?
0:03:04 > 0:03:07- Can you give us a name, Mr Revie? - Can you give us a name?
0:03:08 > 0:03:11MUSIC: "What's New Pussycat" by Tom Jones.
0:03:19 > 0:03:25RADIO: # What's new, pussycat? Whoa, whoa, whoah. #
0:03:30 > 0:03:34# Pussycat, pussycat, you're so thrilling and I'm so willing
0:03:34 > 0:03:37# To care for you
0:03:37 > 0:03:41# So go and make up your big little pussycat eyes... #
0:03:41 > 0:03:44- When are we there?- Any moment now.
0:03:44 > 0:03:47On the right.
0:03:47 > 0:03:50# ..Yes, I do. #
0:03:50 > 0:03:52There it is! It's there, Dad!
0:03:57 > 0:03:59Where are you going?
0:03:59 > 0:04:01Brian! Brian! Stop!
0:04:01 > 0:04:03Dad? You missed it.
0:04:03 > 0:04:07There's something else to do first. It won't take long.
0:04:10 > 0:04:14Today we welcome Brian Clough, who starts his job as manager of Leeds United,
0:04:14 > 0:04:16taking over from Don Revie, the most successful manager
0:04:16 > 0:04:19in the club's history, under whom Leeds have won everything.
0:04:19 > 0:04:21Not quite everything.
0:04:21 > 0:04:23Not won the European Cup.
0:04:23 > 0:04:25But pretty much everything else.
0:04:25 > 0:04:27- Daunted?- Daunted? Not at all, Austin.
0:04:27 > 0:04:29Looking forward to it.
0:04:29 > 0:04:32The biggest challenge of your life and you'll be without
0:04:32 > 0:04:35Peter Taylor for the first time, a lifelong professional colleague.
0:04:35 > 0:04:39Yes, Pete's at Brighton now. He had the opportunity to come with me.
0:04:39 > 0:04:43But Brighton was HIS choice, Leeds was mine.
0:04:43 > 0:04:45A surprising choice, some might say, because
0:04:45 > 0:04:49- you've been very vocal in your criticism of them over the years. - I have.
0:04:49 > 0:04:54You've accused the players of dirty tactics, cheating, dissent, foul play.
0:04:54 > 0:04:58You've called Norman Hunter Norman "Bites Yer Legs" Hunter.
0:04:58 > 0:04:59Peter Lorimer falls when no-one touches him.
0:04:59 > 0:05:01- And I was right.- But I'm curious.
0:05:01 > 0:05:04Why do you now show such alacrity to joining them,
0:05:04 > 0:05:07after such vituperative criticism of them for so long?
0:05:07 > 0:05:11Goodness me. It will take me half an hour to explain all those words for a start.
0:05:11 > 0:05:15Football is a beautiful game, Austin.
0:05:15 > 0:05:17It needs to be played beautifully.
0:05:17 > 0:05:19I think Leeds have sold themselves short.
0:05:19 > 0:05:23They've been champions, but they've not been good champions.
0:05:23 > 0:05:27In the sense of wearing the crown well. They've not been loved.
0:05:27 > 0:05:31But then, you know, that's hardly surprising given
0:05:31 > 0:05:33the type of operation that's been in place there.
0:05:33 > 0:05:35That type of operation?
0:05:35 > 0:05:39I presume you're referring to Don Revie, who has long been regarded as a father figure in Leeds.
0:05:39 > 0:05:44Now you're coming in as the outsider, the enemy, even, after all the things you've said in public.
0:05:44 > 0:05:47Coming in and taking over as a stepfather.
0:05:47 > 0:05:50Wouldn't you expect some degree of resentment to this?
0:05:50 > 0:05:57I would accept and expect a strangeness, initially.
0:05:57 > 0:05:58Perfectly normal.
0:05:58 > 0:06:05But it won't be long before they realise I'm a fair man, a kind man.
0:06:05 > 0:06:07I'm a warm man.
0:06:07 > 0:06:12And maybe under me, they can experience what it's like to be in a happy family after all.
0:06:12 > 0:06:15But how can you be sure they weren't happy with Don all along?
0:06:15 > 0:06:19Well, they wouldn't have played football that way if they were happy.
0:06:34 > 0:06:36Brian! Brian!
0:06:36 > 0:06:38- Brian!- Brian!
0:06:41 > 0:06:43Hey, get out of the way!
0:06:43 > 0:06:45Now, out you go, lads. Where have you been?
0:06:45 > 0:06:47The directors have been waiting for over an hour.
0:06:47 > 0:06:51REPORTER: Brian, what's it like to be at Leeds?
0:06:51 > 0:06:54It's a pleasure to be here and I'm looking forward
0:06:54 > 0:06:57to a very good, long-lasting relationship with Leeds United.
0:06:57 > 0:07:00There you go, young man. Thanks very much.
0:07:00 > 0:07:04Will Peter Taylor be joining you at Leeds, Mr Clough?
0:07:04 > 0:07:06Wait there a second.
0:07:06 > 0:07:08- Wait here a minute.- Morning, lads.
0:07:11 > 0:07:13Lovely Yorkshire weather.
0:07:13 > 0:07:16It makes me wanna jump on a plane right back to Majorca.
0:07:22 > 0:07:25Thank you very much. I believe there are very important people waiting.
0:07:25 > 0:07:28Can't keep them waiting. Not much of a welcome, is it?
0:07:28 > 0:07:31- Not so much as a smile from Johnny Giles.- You're five days late.
0:07:31 > 0:07:34And did you really have to say that about Majorca?
0:07:36 > 0:07:38You know he was Revie's first choice to get YOUR job.
0:07:38 > 0:07:42- Who? Johnny Giles?- Aye.
0:07:42 > 0:07:44Was he now?
0:07:44 > 0:07:46And Bremner?
0:07:46 > 0:07:50Club captain. Don's son and heir.
0:07:50 > 0:07:54You'll never get any love out of him.
0:07:54 > 0:07:56- Great.- Come on, boys.
0:07:56 > 0:07:59Here's to happy fucking families.
0:07:59 > 0:08:04It should be just round here. I want you two to behave for your elderly Uncle Jimmy, all right? See you.
0:08:04 > 0:08:06- Come in, Brian.- Sit down there, lads.
0:08:12 > 0:08:15What? No-one gonna offer me a drink?
0:08:15 > 0:08:18Like an undertaker's in here.
0:08:18 > 0:08:20Why did you do it?
0:08:20 > 0:08:22Do what?
0:08:22 > 0:08:26The interview for Yorkshire Television.
0:08:26 > 0:08:28We've had a phone call.
0:08:28 > 0:08:31- Not so much a phone call, more a bloody tirade.- From Don.
0:08:31 > 0:08:35He quoted some of the things you said.
0:08:35 > 0:08:40"How unhappy the players were under him."
0:08:40 > 0:08:45- "What bad champions." Looking for a response.- Bloody got one as well.
0:08:45 > 0:08:48- He's gone berserk.- He had it coming.
0:08:48 > 0:08:50He shouldn't have done that piece in The Mirror about me.
0:08:50 > 0:08:53Saying he thought I was a daft choice.
0:08:53 > 0:08:55Well, he's entitled to his opinions.
0:08:55 > 0:08:59- I'm entitled to mine. - And I'm entitled to mine.
0:09:02 > 0:09:06I hired you to do this job because I think you're the best young manager in this country.
0:09:06 > 0:09:10Thank you. I'm the best old one too.
0:09:10 > 0:09:16I also did it under the assumption that you would be coming here wanting the best for this club.
0:09:16 > 0:09:18For the city of Leeds.
0:09:18 > 0:09:21So why do I get the feeling this is all about you and Don?
0:09:21 > 0:09:24Of course it's just about me and Don.
0:09:24 > 0:09:25Always has been.
0:09:25 > 0:09:29But instead of putting frowns on your foreheads,
0:09:29 > 0:09:31all ye elders of Leeds in your blazers
0:09:31 > 0:09:33and your brass fucking buttons,
0:09:33 > 0:09:38it should put big white Colgate smiles on your big white faces.
0:09:38 > 0:09:41Because it means I won't eat, and won't sleep
0:09:41 > 0:09:45until I've taken whatever that man's achieved, and beaten it.
0:09:45 > 0:09:49Beaten it so I never have to hear the name Don fucking Revie again.
0:09:49 > 0:09:54Beat it. The only name anyone sings in the Yorkshire ale houses, raising
0:09:54 > 0:09:59their stinking jars to their stinking mouths, is Brian Clough.
0:09:59 > 0:10:02Brian Clough uber fucking alles.
0:10:05 > 0:10:07Understand?
0:10:31 > 0:10:33Number 25.
0:10:33 > 0:10:35Manchester United.
0:10:38 > 0:10:41Number 41.
0:10:41 > 0:10:42Will play Tottenham Hotspur.
0:10:44 > 0:10:46- Number 22.- Come on, Pete.
0:10:46 > 0:10:48Derby County.
0:10:48 > 0:10:52- Derby County, second division. - Here we go, that's us.
0:10:52 > 0:10:57Will play number 6, Leeds United.
0:10:57 > 0:11:00Leeds! Leeds! Leeds! Good God!
0:11:00 > 0:11:02Don Revie's Leeds!
0:11:06 > 0:11:07Top of Division One,
0:11:07 > 0:11:10- here we come! - PHONE RINGS
0:11:10 > 0:11:13What do you say to that, Mr Chairman?
0:11:13 > 0:11:16I can hear the cash registers now.
0:11:16 > 0:11:18Happy days, sir!
0:11:18 > 0:11:19- Happy days!- You've done well, Brian.
0:11:19 > 0:11:23Take your family out for a meal.
0:11:23 > 0:11:24Go to the Mumtaz. Tell them it's on me.
0:11:24 > 0:11:28Thank you, Mr Chairman.
0:11:28 > 0:11:30Put the fish and chips in the bin.
0:11:30 > 0:11:32Tonight's on Uncle Sam. We're going posh.
0:11:32 > 0:11:34Chicken bhuna in town!
0:11:38 > 0:11:44Come on, Simon. Get your gloves, Simon. Get your coat on. Leeds United! Leeds!
0:11:49 > 0:11:53Right, you two, I want Billy Bremner and Johnny Giles
0:11:53 > 0:11:55to be able to read that. Come on.
0:11:59 > 0:12:03And this door has gotta be fit for Donald Revie to walk through.
0:12:06 > 0:12:08Well, chop-chop.
0:12:14 > 0:12:18There you are. Right, ladies. Spick and span, remember.
0:12:18 > 0:12:20Wash these walls down. Give the floors a proper polish.
0:12:20 > 0:12:23I'll be back! Come on, off you go!
0:12:24 > 0:12:27I want it perfect.
0:12:27 > 0:12:30Like a fucking carpet.
0:12:30 > 0:12:35We've got proper footballers coming who know how to keep the ball on the deck.
0:12:35 > 0:12:37Well, you can't fucking train on it then.
0:12:48 > 0:12:50What a joker.
0:12:52 > 0:12:54Come on, Kev, keep on your man.
0:12:54 > 0:12:56Pass it! Yeah, yeah, again. Again.
0:12:56 > 0:12:59You know, he'll be making a file on us. A dossier.
0:12:59 > 0:13:02- Who?- Don Revie.
0:13:02 > 0:13:04Prepares a file on every game.
0:13:04 > 0:13:06Leaves nothing to chance.
0:13:06 > 0:13:10Knows every opponent's formations, strategies, everything.
0:13:10 > 0:13:12I've heard he's a superstitious twat.
0:13:12 > 0:13:17We grew up just a few streets apart in Middlesbrough, close to Ayresome Park.
0:13:17 > 0:13:21He'll have known my street, Valley Road.
0:13:21 > 0:13:24Probably bought sweets from Garnett's factory where me dad worked.
0:13:24 > 0:13:27I heard he wears the same suit to every game.
0:13:27 > 0:13:29His lucky blue suit.
0:13:29 > 0:13:32Best manager in the country, Don Revie.
0:13:32 > 0:13:35Played for Sunderland, like me.
0:13:35 > 0:13:36A centre forward like me.
0:13:36 > 0:13:40- And England like me.- Give it and go!
0:13:40 > 0:13:42Peas in a pod, me and Don.
0:13:43 > 0:13:45Two peas in a bloody pod.
0:13:45 > 0:13:47Right, you saw that? That's the way you do it!
0:15:16 > 0:15:19They're here.
0:15:19 > 0:15:22Well, almost.
0:15:25 > 0:15:28Pass it! Move!
0:15:34 > 0:15:36- BOY:- I want Billy to sign my autograph book.
0:15:42 > 0:15:44What are they doing?
0:15:44 > 0:15:46Ran out of petrol, boss.
0:15:46 > 0:15:49No. It's that superstition, ain't it?
0:15:49 > 0:15:55Every away Cup tie, Revie makes them walk the last hundred yards. Soppy twat.
0:15:55 > 0:15:57- Billy!- Billy!- Billy!
0:16:16 > 0:16:19How are you doing there? All right? All right?
0:16:22 > 0:16:24Mr Giles, quick picture!
0:16:24 > 0:16:26Mr Revie!
0:16:31 > 0:16:32Welcome to Derby, Don.
0:16:32 > 0:16:34A pleasure to meet you.
0:16:34 > 0:16:35I'm... I'm Brian Clough.
0:16:35 > 0:16:38Hello. Yeah, hello, hello.
0:16:47 > 0:16:50- 'It's the Third Round of the FA Cup.'- Here we go.
0:16:50 > 0:16:54- 'It's Derby County against Leeds United at the Baseball Ground.' - Come on, boys!
0:16:54 > 0:17:00'Derby County in the white shirts, very much the underdogs, as they face the First Division champions.
0:17:00 > 0:17:05'Playing today in their away strip of dark blue shirts and yellow shorts.'
0:17:08 > 0:17:12- Remember what I said. - 'Giles dispossessed by Hector.
0:17:12 > 0:17:14'Well, the atmosphere is absolutely electric.
0:17:14 > 0:17:18'But the pitch, as ever at Derby, in poor condition and heavily sanded.
0:17:18 > 0:17:23'Giles. Oh, that's a strong challenge on McFarland.'
0:17:23 > 0:17:25That was diabolical!
0:17:25 > 0:17:30'There have been question marks about some of these Leeds players intimidating referees.
0:17:34 > 0:17:36'And it looks like McFarland is out of the match.'
0:17:36 > 0:17:42- That don't look good. You all right, Brian?- Yeah.
0:17:45 > 0:17:47'Leeds with the free kick. Delivered deep. Oh, here's Clarke.
0:17:47 > 0:17:50'He's unmarked at the back post.
0:17:50 > 0:17:52'Leeds lead by one goal to nil!'
0:17:52 > 0:17:54Well played, Billy.
0:17:54 > 0:17:57'Giles with the corner.
0:17:57 > 0:17:59'Bremner.'
0:17:59 > 0:18:00Fucking close him down!
0:18:00 > 0:18:03'Bremner's gone down!'
0:18:03 > 0:18:06- What?- 'There didn't appear to be any contact!
0:18:06 > 0:18:08'The referee has given a spot-kick.'
0:18:08 > 0:18:14- He never fucking touched him, ref! He dived! He fucking dived! - Well played.
0:18:16 > 0:18:21'And that penalty spot is lost somewhere in the middle of a desperate patch of mud.
0:18:21 > 0:18:23'And it's 2-0!
0:18:23 > 0:18:25'Leeds have won it now!
0:18:25 > 0:18:28'Don Revie sending a clear message to his rivals.
0:18:28 > 0:18:31'Leeds are still very much the team to beat.
0:18:31 > 0:18:34- Unlucky, unlucky. - 'Derby totally outclassed.
0:18:34 > 0:18:38'And for Brian Clough and Peter Taylor, it's been a sobering afternoon.'
0:18:42 > 0:18:44Didn't say goodbye.
0:18:45 > 0:18:50Or pay me the respect of staying for a drink.
0:18:50 > 0:18:52Couldn't WAIT to get away.
0:18:52 > 0:18:56Well, he cheats and all. Neither of those goals should've been allowed.
0:18:56 > 0:19:00We're just gonna have to beat him, Pete.
0:19:00 > 0:19:02Beat him if it's the last thing I do.
0:19:02 > 0:19:04Thanks a lot, boss.
0:19:04 > 0:19:07- After you, Billy. - Mr Bremner, was that a dive?
0:19:09 > 0:19:12We need to get up into the same division first.
0:19:14 > 0:19:16We need someone with a good head.
0:19:16 > 0:19:19- Experience.- I know.
0:19:19 > 0:19:21Our lot were like headless chickens.
0:19:21 > 0:19:27- First thing Monday morning, I want you to go and find me that player, a wise head.- We haven't...
0:19:27 > 0:19:29Don't worry about the money. That's my problem.
0:19:29 > 0:19:30Just YOU go and find him.
0:19:38 > 0:19:42Well, Simon's eaten up his mashed potato.
0:19:42 > 0:19:45PHONE RINGS
0:19:45 > 0:19:46Not now, love. Please.
0:19:46 > 0:19:50- But it might be Pete.- Pete.
0:19:50 > 0:19:53- Of course, it's Pete. - Yeah, of course it's Pete.
0:19:53 > 0:19:56- Don't be cheeky, Nigel. - But it might be important.
0:19:56 > 0:19:58Come on, eat your carrots up for your mother.
0:20:01 > 0:20:07- Hello?- You asked me to find a player with a good head, experienced.
0:20:07 > 0:20:10Well, I found one. He's perfect.
0:20:10 > 0:20:15- Dave Mackay.- Dave Mackay. He's 150.
0:20:15 > 0:20:18- I admit he's not young. - Not young. He's old as bloody time.
0:20:18 > 0:20:23- But, oh, he's clever, Brian. Keeps the ball well, passes it better than anyone alive.- Pete!
0:20:23 > 0:20:26That's enough. Come back.
0:20:27 > 0:20:32- He's the one, Brian.- Are you sure? - Never been more sure of anything in me life.
0:20:32 > 0:20:35All right. I'll talk to Longson in the morning.
0:20:35 > 0:20:40Haven't got till morning. Hearts have already made him an offer. Want him as their manager.
0:20:40 > 0:20:42Apparently, the terms have been agreed.
0:20:42 > 0:20:44Well, what did you bloody call me for then?
0:20:44 > 0:20:51Because when I asked Bill Nick how done the deal was, he said 99%.
0:20:51 > 0:20:53Meaning he hasn't signed.
0:20:53 > 0:20:56Exactly.
0:20:56 > 0:20:58Right, Brian, that's enough.
0:20:58 > 0:21:00Come and sit down.
0:21:00 > 0:21:02Your dinner's getting cold.
0:21:08 > 0:21:12Brian? Love?
0:21:16 > 0:21:19Come on. Open. There you go.
0:21:21 > 0:21:23Where will we play him, then?
0:21:23 > 0:21:26Somewhere he can see everything. Use his loaf, tell the kids what to do.
0:21:26 > 0:21:28- Play him at sweeper.- Aye.
0:21:28 > 0:21:32He won't have to run about so much now, will he? Fat bastard.
0:21:34 > 0:21:36What's all this I hear about a tie shop?
0:21:36 > 0:21:39He got a tie shop, ain't he, in London, which he spends two days a week at.
0:21:39 > 0:21:41Fucking tie shop?
0:21:41 > 0:21:46- It's his little nest egg for the future.- No-one will be wearing fucking ties in 20 years' time.
0:21:46 > 0:21:51- I hope his footballing brain is better than his business brain.- Hey.
0:21:51 > 0:21:53Here, come on. Get it down. Open.
0:22:02 > 0:22:06You know, it's illegal to sign someone on the Sabbath.
0:22:06 > 0:22:09Is it? Well, perhaps you should just shake on it today.
0:22:09 > 0:22:11And sign for it tomorrow.
0:22:11 > 0:22:15What? And let Hearts in again in the morning? Fuck off.
0:22:15 > 0:22:18I'm not leaving here without a signature.
0:22:18 > 0:22:21God, you'd bloody do that too, wouldn't you?
0:22:21 > 0:22:24Come all this way just to shake hands.
0:22:24 > 0:22:26Dear, oh, dear.
0:22:26 > 0:22:28What would you do without me?
0:22:28 > 0:22:30Hey, you wouldn't have found him if it weren't for me.
0:22:32 > 0:22:34Good job we're both wearing ties.
0:22:39 > 0:22:40Jehovah's Witness, Dave.
0:22:40 > 0:22:43May the Lord be with you.
0:22:43 > 0:22:46- Who the bloody hell are you? - My name's Brian Clough.
0:22:46 > 0:22:51I had the pleasure of playing for England against you in an under-23 match.
0:22:51 > 0:22:54I remember you now.
0:22:54 > 0:22:56You had a black eye.
0:22:56 > 0:22:57A right bloody shiner.
0:22:57 > 0:23:01You never stopped fucking talking. What are you doing here?
0:23:01 > 0:23:03I've come to talk to you about the promised land.
0:23:03 > 0:23:05A land of milk and honey.
0:23:05 > 0:23:09A little place up the M1 called Derby.
0:23:09 > 0:23:10May we come in?
0:23:12 > 0:23:14Aye.
0:23:16 > 0:23:19- Come on, lads!- Knees up. That's it. That's it.
0:23:19 > 0:23:22Come on. It's supposed to hurt.
0:23:22 > 0:23:24- Faster. Come on. - Come on, get those knees up.
0:23:26 > 0:23:27Dave Mackay?
0:23:27 > 0:23:29You don't sound happy, Uncle Sam.
0:23:29 > 0:23:33I'm not. What were you thinking going over my head? Why didn't you call?
0:23:33 > 0:23:35Because you'd have said no.
0:23:35 > 0:23:39Bloody right I'd have said no. The man's bloody crocked.
0:23:39 > 0:23:41Pete reckons he's good for three more years.
0:23:41 > 0:23:45Is he, fuck. He's broken more bones than Evel the Knievel.
0:23:45 > 0:23:48Trust me, Mr Chairman. It's money well spent.
0:23:48 > 0:23:50Who the fuck are they?
0:23:50 > 0:23:54That'll be Messrs McGovern and O'Hare.
0:23:54 > 0:23:56Hello.
0:23:56 > 0:23:58Where did they come from?
0:23:58 > 0:24:01Me old stomping grounds, Hartlepools and Sunderland.
0:24:01 > 0:24:03Very reasonable too.
0:24:03 > 0:24:04Just doing what's best for the club.
0:24:04 > 0:24:07That'll be my club, Brian. My club.
0:24:07 > 0:24:09Five-a-sides.
0:24:09 > 0:24:12Come on, move! Move now!
0:24:12 > 0:24:15- Mr. Mackay, over here. - Hey, you all right, fellas?
0:24:15 > 0:24:19Give them a smile. Pretend you're happy to be here in Derby.
0:24:19 > 0:24:24If you lot don't perform for us, I'll feed you to these guys, all right?
0:24:24 > 0:24:27Who's got the prettiest face here?
0:24:27 > 0:24:29- The one in the middle. - I think it's Dave Mackay, isn't it?
0:24:29 > 0:24:31I'm not answering that question.
0:24:31 > 0:24:34That's nice football, lads. Well done!
0:24:34 > 0:24:36Now you're thinking about it!
0:24:36 > 0:24:37Let's play some football!
0:24:37 > 0:24:40Let's play some football!
0:24:40 > 0:24:44You're a genius, Pete. Bloody genius. How did you see it?
0:24:44 > 0:24:46Don't know. It's just obvious.
0:24:46 > 0:24:49McGovern in midfield. Mackay at the back. O'Hare up front.
0:24:49 > 0:24:51It's the skewer, isn't it?
0:24:51 > 0:24:54- In the shish kebab.- Beautiful.
0:24:54 > 0:24:56A thing of fucking beauty.
0:24:56 > 0:24:58- Hey, get off. - Come on! That's the way!
0:25:01 > 0:25:03Dave Mackay. Out to McGovern.
0:25:05 > 0:25:07Oh, he hit it just right!
0:25:07 > 0:25:10O'Hare! And it's there!
0:25:10 > 0:25:13- Yes! Come on! - Durban back to McGovern.
0:25:13 > 0:25:17McGovern with the shot. Durban. It's in!
0:25:18 > 0:25:21Oh, and a magnificent goal!
0:25:23 > 0:25:24And it's a goal!
0:25:24 > 0:25:26O'Hare and Hector in the penalty area.
0:25:26 > 0:25:29O'Hare. Beautiful football!
0:25:29 > 0:25:32Yes! Come on!
0:25:32 > 0:25:33It was all so easy.
0:25:33 > 0:25:36That's it. Derby win the Second Division.
0:25:39 > 0:25:42It's a magnificent achievement for Brian Clough's team.
0:25:42 > 0:25:44Go on, Brian.
0:25:44 > 0:25:46Fill it up. Fill it up.
0:25:46 > 0:25:49# Love and marriage, love and marriage
0:25:49 > 0:25:53# Is an institute you can't disparage
0:25:56 > 0:26:01# Ask the local gentry and they will say it's elementary
0:26:01 > 0:26:04# Try, try, try and separate them
0:26:04 > 0:26:07# It's an illusion
0:26:07 > 0:26:12# Try, try, try and you will only come
0:26:12 > 0:26:16# To this conclusion
0:26:16 > 0:26:18# Love and marriage, love and marriage...#
0:26:18 > 0:26:20Shush, shush, look, look, look.
0:26:20 > 0:26:22Look.
0:26:28 > 0:26:31For Leeds to win the First Division title and
0:26:31 > 0:26:36me to be named English Manager of the Year really is a dream come true.
0:26:36 > 0:26:37I've a lot of people to thank.
0:26:37 > 0:26:40I've had a lot of support, all year.
0:26:40 > 0:26:45Yeah, you enjoy it, Don. Go home, put your feet up and enjoy it.
0:26:45 > 0:26:49There's a good lad. Because we'll be in the First Division next season. And we're gonna have you!
0:26:49 > 0:26:51CHEERS
0:27:22 > 0:27:25Right.
0:27:25 > 0:27:27Better go and make myself known.
0:27:30 > 0:27:34- Behave yourselves.- Right.
0:27:34 > 0:27:37- See you, lads.- See you.
0:27:42 > 0:27:45All right, gentlemen, gather around, please.
0:27:57 > 0:28:00Well, I might as well tell you now.
0:28:00 > 0:28:02You lot may all be internationals,
0:28:02 > 0:28:07and have won all the domestic honours there are to win under Don Revie.
0:28:07 > 0:28:13But as far as I'm concerned, the first thing you can do for me is to chuck all your medals
0:28:13 > 0:28:18and all your caps, and all your pots and pans into the biggest fucking dustbin you can find.
0:28:18 > 0:28:21Because you've never won any of them fairly.
0:28:21 > 0:28:24You've done it all by bloody cheating.
0:28:27 > 0:28:30Mr William Bremner, you're the captain and a good one.
0:28:30 > 0:28:35But you're no good to the team and no good to me if you're suspended.
0:28:35 > 0:28:38I want you fit for every game.
0:28:38 > 0:28:44And I want good, clean, attractive football from my captain, starting next week at the Charity Shield.
0:28:44 > 0:28:47And you, Irishman.
0:28:48 > 0:28:53God gave you skill, intelligence and the best passing ability in the game.
0:28:53 > 0:28:57What God did not give you was six studs to wrap around another player's knee.
0:29:00 > 0:29:03Now, things are gonna be a little different around here,
0:29:03 > 0:29:05without Don.
0:29:05 > 0:29:06Might feel strange at first.
0:29:06 > 0:29:09Might pinch a little like a new pair of shoes.
0:29:09 > 0:29:14But, if you want your grandchildren to remember you as being something
0:29:14 > 0:29:16other than the dirty buggers you once were...
0:29:16 > 0:29:23If you wanna be loved as real champions, worthy champions,
0:29:23 > 0:29:29you're gonna have to work and improve, and change.
0:29:30 > 0:29:34Now, let's start off by playing some seven-a-sides.
0:29:35 > 0:29:37Mr Revie never made us do that.
0:29:39 > 0:29:42Well, I'm not Mr Revie.
0:29:42 > 0:29:45From now on, I don't wanna hear that name again ever.
0:29:45 > 0:29:51Next player who mentions it or what he did or didn't do in the old days will spend a week cleaning my boots.
0:29:53 > 0:29:56Seven-a-sides. Keep it nice and clean. Hey.
0:29:56 > 0:29:59And sensible. No 50-50s.
0:29:59 > 0:30:01Right. I'll play meself.
0:30:01 > 0:30:03You might learn something, Irishman.
0:30:03 > 0:30:08251 goals in 274 starts.
0:30:16 > 0:30:19I'd like to see Don fucking Revie do that, eh?
0:30:19 > 0:30:21First seven over here. Come on.
0:30:21 > 0:30:23- There you go.- Hope he's ready. - Come on, pal. Let's do it.
0:30:23 > 0:30:26Yes, Irishman, I'll have it here!
0:30:26 > 0:30:29I see nothing on, nothing on. Back to you, back to you!
0:30:29 > 0:30:31Good lad, come on! Billy will have it.
0:30:31 > 0:30:35- Give it to Billy. Yes, come on, Billy. I'm free!- Here, come on!
0:30:35 > 0:30:39Close him down, close him down!
0:30:39 > 0:30:41Come on.
0:30:41 > 0:30:44Hey, 50-50, Norman. You deaf or what?
0:30:44 > 0:30:46- Jesus.- Good tackle, though. - What's the matter with you?
0:30:46 > 0:30:48He said no 50-50s.
0:30:48 > 0:30:52- What are you gonna do about it? Book me?- Yes, I will.
0:30:52 > 0:30:54You're a bunch of fucking bullies.
0:30:54 > 0:30:56It's a fair challenge, Norman. Fair play.
0:30:56 > 0:30:57Up.
0:30:57 > 0:30:59Up. Easy, easy.
0:30:59 > 0:31:02- Come on, one two, pass and move.- OK?
0:31:02 > 0:31:03Yeah.
0:31:08 > 0:31:11"251 goals in 274 starts." >
0:31:15 > 0:31:17He should've stayed with Peter Taylor.
0:31:17 > 0:31:21I've heard he's the one with all the talent anyway.
0:31:21 > 0:31:23Well, I'll tell you. He's no Don Revie.
0:31:40 > 0:31:41Best team in the country, Leeds.
0:31:41 > 0:31:44Best players. Best stadium. Best backroom staff.
0:31:46 > 0:31:51Best everything, really. Right.
0:31:51 > 0:31:55Last time, there was a whole division between you and Leeds.
0:31:55 > 0:31:57Not now. Not today.
0:31:57 > 0:32:01Today we're here as Second Division champions. And equals with Leeds.
0:32:01 > 0:32:05John McGovern and Billy Bremner, equals.
0:32:05 > 0:32:07Kevin Hector and Johnny Giles.
0:32:07 > 0:32:10- Equals.- Good lad. Equals.
0:32:10 > 0:32:12Alan Hinton and Peter Lorimer.
0:32:12 > 0:32:14- Equals!- Equals.
0:32:14 > 0:32:16John O'Hare and Paul Madeley.
0:32:16 > 0:32:18- Equals!- Now, come on.
0:32:18 > 0:32:21Chins up, chests out. We can take this lot. Come on!
0:32:21 > 0:32:23Come on!
0:32:23 > 0:32:27- Equals, yeah! Come on! - Go! Get out there! Come on.
0:32:29 > 0:32:30Come on! Come on, Leeds.
0:32:40 > 0:32:45Well, it's an achievement for Derby, being promoted to the First Division. But the truth is,
0:32:45 > 0:32:49Leeds United have the unfortunate habit of reminding them just how far they still have to go.
0:32:49 > 0:32:52They made us look like fools today.
0:32:52 > 0:32:54I mean, our boys...
0:32:54 > 0:32:56What was O'Hare doing?
0:32:56 > 0:32:59Letting Madeley bully him like that, pushing him around.
0:33:01 > 0:33:03Madeley's half his bloody size.
0:33:03 > 0:33:06O'Hare needs to toughen up.
0:33:06 > 0:33:08He's from the Scottish dockyards, isn't he?
0:33:08 > 0:33:09What about McGovern?
0:33:09 > 0:33:11He was useless in the middle.
0:33:11 > 0:33:14- Whose idea was that?- Yours.
0:33:15 > 0:33:17Good lad.
0:33:17 > 0:33:19He was all over the place.
0:33:19 > 0:33:22Like the wandering Jew.
0:33:22 > 0:33:25Giving the ball to anyone but his own. We need a ball player.
0:33:25 > 0:33:30A natural in midfield who can hold on to it, keep possession.
0:33:30 > 0:33:32Giving it away too easily.
0:33:33 > 0:33:38Someone like...Colin Todd.
0:33:38 > 0:33:40Oh, now you're talking.
0:33:40 > 0:33:42Lovely pair of feet.
0:33:43 > 0:33:46I've heard he wants out of Sunderland too.
0:33:46 > 0:33:49They're all jumping ship up there.
0:33:49 > 0:33:51Go on, sign him, then.
0:33:51 > 0:33:53What?
0:33:53 > 0:33:55We can't.
0:33:55 > 0:33:57Longson's already told us.
0:33:57 > 0:33:58"Club's in debt."
0:33:58 > 0:34:02Having said that, Derby had their moments. They played some football.
0:34:02 > 0:34:05They were brief moments, perhaps, but they did play some football at times.
0:34:05 > 0:34:07But when you come up...
0:34:07 > 0:34:09Oh, bollocks to that!
0:34:09 > 0:34:12I didn't get us all the way to the First Division so we could sit
0:34:12 > 0:34:17there mid-table and be cannon fodder for sides like Leeds. Sign the man.
0:34:17 > 0:34:21- Hang on, hang on. Brian... - I'll handle bloody Longson.
0:34:21 > 0:34:25Oh, you are a disgrace!
0:34:25 > 0:34:29For missing the target from there, you want bloody shooting!
0:34:29 > 0:34:34Now, get in there! That's what I pay you for!
0:34:34 > 0:34:36170 grand for Colin fucking Todd?
0:34:36 > 0:34:40Correction, The Almighty Colin Todd. Best technical footballer in the country.
0:34:40 > 0:34:42And his salary's 300 quid a week?
0:34:42 > 0:34:43We can't pay a footballer that.
0:34:43 > 0:34:46That's the way things are going, Uncle Sam.
0:34:46 > 0:34:47Football's all about money now.
0:34:47 > 0:34:49I told you never to go over my head again.
0:34:49 > 0:34:52I had no choice. Windows opened up.
0:34:52 > 0:34:54You were in the bloody West Indies.
0:34:54 > 0:34:58- Windows? You mean, there are others? - Messrs Gemmill and Hennessey.
0:34:58 > 0:35:01- ALL: Hello - Oh, for fuck's sake.
0:35:01 > 0:35:03Let me ask you a question, Uncle Sam.
0:35:03 > 0:35:05What did you come into football for?
0:35:05 > 0:35:07Support the football club of my hometown.
0:35:07 > 0:35:09The club I've supported all my life.
0:35:09 > 0:35:11I'm sure we all admire your loyalty.
0:35:11 > 0:35:16I didn't come to be lectured by some cocky little twat from the north-east.
0:35:16 > 0:35:20The way I see it, there's no point being in this game unless you want to beat the best.
0:35:20 > 0:35:23And be the best. That's all the people of Derby want.
0:35:23 > 0:35:28If you really have their interest at heart, not just impressing your friends in the director's box,
0:35:28 > 0:35:31I suggest you keep your eyes on your road haulage business.
0:35:31 > 0:35:35Keep your opinions to yourself and start signing some fucking cheques.
0:35:35 > 0:35:39There's a good lad. Leave the running of this football club to the professionals.
0:35:39 > 0:35:41Well, professionals don't run the football club, Brian.
0:35:41 > 0:35:43The chairman does.
0:35:43 > 0:35:47If it's true football is all about money, that's the way it's going,
0:35:47 > 0:35:50well, that suits us chairmen just fucking fine.
0:35:50 > 0:35:52Because we're the ones who've got it.
0:35:52 > 0:35:56Come on, to feet!
0:35:56 > 0:35:58That's it, lads!
0:35:58 > 0:36:00Frighten the shit out of them.
0:36:00 > 0:36:02Now, what was it last time? 5-0.
0:36:02 > 0:36:04Was it 5-0?
0:36:04 > 0:36:05We'll hit double figures this time.
0:36:05 > 0:36:09- I'm taking the first penalty. - It should be a smash and grab event.
0:36:09 > 0:36:13I see they've driven all the way into the car park this time.
0:36:13 > 0:36:17Isn't a cup game, is it? Tosser.
0:36:21 > 0:36:23Hey, socks up, socks up.
0:36:23 > 0:36:25Come on. All right.
0:36:25 > 0:36:27Right. He's coming.
0:36:27 > 0:36:28- CROWD:- Come on, Derby!
0:36:28 > 0:36:30Come on, Derby!
0:36:30 > 0:36:34Come on, Derby! Come on, Derby!
0:36:35 > 0:36:37CLOUGH WHISTLES A TUNE
0:37:04 > 0:37:06You know what your job is today?
0:37:06 > 0:37:09Yes, boss. Stay in position. Keep the shape.
0:37:09 > 0:37:12- Stop being the wandering Jew. - Good lad.
0:37:12 > 0:37:15Enjoy it. You deserve to.
0:37:15 > 0:37:17You've worked hard. This week.
0:37:44 > 0:37:48- Do you know what you're doing today? - Be big, be strong.
0:37:48 > 0:37:52- Any chance I get, flatten Paul fucking Madeley.- Good lad.
0:37:52 > 0:37:55He bullies you, you bully him back.
0:37:59 > 0:38:01- Near post for those corners we worked on.- Yes, boss.
0:38:04 > 0:38:06Now...
0:38:10 > 0:38:13- Come on!- Come on, Derby! Come on!
0:38:13 > 0:38:15Come on, Derby! Come on, Derby!
0:38:15 > 0:38:17Come on, Derby!
0:38:17 > 0:38:19Come on, Derby! Come on, Derby!
0:38:19 > 0:38:21Come on, Derby! Come on, Derby!
0:39:06 > 0:39:08CROWD ROARS
0:40:23 > 0:40:26- And?- 2-1!
0:40:28 > 0:40:31You clever, clever, clever bastard.
0:40:31 > 0:40:33You should've seen O'Hare's first.
0:40:33 > 0:40:36Turned Bremner inside out. Beautiful. I tell you what, Brian.
0:40:36 > 0:40:38If we can beat this lot, we could go all the way.
0:40:38 > 0:40:39Oh, yeah!
0:40:43 > 0:40:47And back again, John Radford with him. O'Hare!
0:40:47 > 0:40:50Ceaseless Derby pressure.
0:40:50 > 0:40:52McGovern! Oh, yes!
0:40:53 > 0:40:57How would you define your approach to management, apart from being brilliant?
0:40:57 > 0:41:00Good lad.
0:41:00 > 0:41:03Two in the middle. O'Hare!
0:41:03 > 0:41:05How do you react when someone says, "Boss, you're doing it wrong?"
0:41:05 > 0:41:09Well, I ask him how he thinks it ought to be done.
0:41:09 > 0:41:13And then we get down to it and we talk about it for 20 minutes.
0:41:13 > 0:41:15And then we decide that I was right.
0:41:17 > 0:41:21- O'Hare!- And with that, Derby County
0:41:21 > 0:41:26are the champions of England! It's an extraordinary story.
0:41:26 > 0:41:30I wouldn't say I was the best manager in the country.
0:41:30 > 0:41:31But I'm in the top one.
0:41:36 > 0:41:38Some fella in London, England, named...
0:41:38 > 0:41:41Some Brian... Brian Clough.
0:41:41 > 0:41:44I heard all the way in America that this fella talks too much.
0:41:44 > 0:41:46They say he's another Muhammad Ali.
0:41:46 > 0:41:49There's just one Muhammad Ali. Now, Clough, I've had enough. Stop it.
0:41:49 > 0:41:51Are you gonna stop it?
0:41:51 > 0:41:53No, I'm going to fight him.
0:42:11 > 0:42:13The twin towers of Wembley Stadium.
0:42:13 > 0:42:15The cathedral of English football.
0:42:15 > 0:42:17Good afternoon, everyone.
0:42:17 > 0:42:18It's the Charity Shield.
0:42:18 > 0:42:20The opening Saturday of the 1974 season.
0:42:20 > 0:42:26And our first chance to get a look at Leeds under their new manager, Brian Clough.
0:42:26 > 0:42:28Will you be supporting Leeds today, Don?
0:42:28 > 0:42:31You'd expect nothing less having been the manager for 13 years.
0:42:31 > 0:42:33Fact is, I'm here today as England manager.
0:42:33 > 0:42:38- Any words of advice for your successor, Brian Clough, before his first game?- Win.
0:42:38 > 0:42:41- The people of Leeds are used to winning. Thanks, Dave.- Thanks, Don.
0:42:47 > 0:42:49Right.
0:42:51 > 0:42:53Right, gentlemen, thank you!
0:42:55 > 0:42:59Team today is Harvey in goal.
0:42:59 > 0:43:01Reaney, Cherry, Bremner.
0:43:01 > 0:43:03My captain.
0:43:03 > 0:43:06McQueen, Hunter, Lorimer, Clarke.
0:43:06 > 0:43:09Jordan, Giles and Gray.
0:43:09 > 0:43:16Obviously, all eyes will be on us to see how things have changed.
0:43:16 > 0:43:18Without Don.
0:43:18 > 0:43:21What might be different under me.
0:43:21 > 0:43:25Let's show them some of the things we've been working on.
0:43:25 > 0:43:30Our changes in attitude to a new outlook.
0:43:30 > 0:43:33New discipline.
0:43:33 > 0:43:35New approach.
0:43:36 > 0:43:41Let's see some of you playing with a smile, eh?
0:43:47 > 0:43:51- BARRY DAVIES: - There on his right, the man who takes over from Don Revie,
0:43:51 > 0:43:55Brian Clough, who has one championship to his credit with Derby County.
0:43:55 > 0:43:59Brian Clough, starting I suppose at the top.
0:43:59 > 0:44:02Not a bad way to open your account with your new team at Wembley.
0:44:02 > 0:44:05# God save our noble Queen
0:44:05 > 0:44:11# God save our Queen
0:44:12 > 0:44:18# Send her victorious
0:44:18 > 0:44:24# Happy and glorious
0:44:24 > 0:44:29# Long to reign over us
0:44:29 > 0:44:35# God save the Queen. #
0:44:35 > 0:44:36CHEERING
0:44:42 > 0:44:47- CROWD CHANTING: - # Super, super Leeds Super Leeds United. #
0:44:56 > 0:44:59Oh, beautifully played, Keegan.
0:44:59 > 0:45:01Got to hit it now.
0:45:01 > 0:45:04There's a chance on here and it's blocked.
0:45:05 > 0:45:06Boersma's shot.
0:45:10 > 0:45:14And that looked very much like a right hook by Johnny Giles.
0:45:14 > 0:45:18- TONY GUBBA: - That was shocking. Keegan has been poleaxed and it was a right hook.
0:45:18 > 0:45:20That's a terrible foul.
0:45:20 > 0:45:23JIMMY HILL: A minute afterwards, watch as Bremner appears
0:45:23 > 0:45:25to pat him with his left hand.
0:45:25 > 0:45:27That right hand in the kidneys.
0:45:27 > 0:45:30And then down on the floor, for no reason whatsoever.
0:45:30 > 0:45:34And Keegan's gonna get his little bit of revenge there with a right cross.
0:45:34 > 0:45:40Surely, we've got to get away from this. And Kevin Keegan, having words with the referee.
0:45:40 > 0:45:44It rather looks as though the referee has taken stronger action this time.
0:45:44 > 0:45:47Bremner is off, and he's absolutely livid about it.
0:45:47 > 0:45:51For fuck's sake.
0:45:51 > 0:45:53They're both throwing their shirts down.
0:45:53 > 0:45:58And really, this is a side of English football, a face of English football we do not want to see.
0:45:58 > 0:46:04To dismiss the referee's authority in such a manner cannot be good for the game.
0:46:05 > 0:46:11So the cup winners beat the league champions.
0:46:14 > 0:46:15William Bremner,
0:46:15 > 0:46:20your conduct in the Charity Shield match was deplorable
0:46:20 > 0:46:23and cannot be tolerated.
0:46:23 > 0:46:28We understand Leeds United are taking disciplinary action against you internally.
0:46:28 > 0:46:32However, the Football Association has to be seen to make an example.
0:46:32 > 0:46:36We have therefore decided to impose a fine of £500.
0:46:36 > 0:46:38Thank you.
0:46:38 > 0:46:42And a suspension until September 30th.
0:46:42 > 0:46:45What?
0:46:45 > 0:46:47September 30th? That's over a month.
0:46:47 > 0:46:48That's six bloody weeks.
0:46:48 > 0:46:52I'll make it seven if you carry on with language like that.
0:46:52 > 0:46:55Come on. Double the fine. Treble it.
0:46:55 > 0:46:58Anything. Just don't suspend him for that long.
0:46:58 > 0:46:59Gentlemen.
0:47:02 > 0:47:04He's my captain.
0:47:04 > 0:47:06Hey, he's the best player I've got.
0:47:16 > 0:47:18PHONE DIAL TONE
0:47:18 > 0:47:20HE SIGHS
0:47:22 > 0:47:26- 'Hello?'- I suppose you've heard.
0:47:27 > 0:47:30Suspended for 11 bloody games.
0:47:32 > 0:47:34Well, you're buggered.
0:47:34 > 0:47:37Billy Bremner's the heart and soul of that team.
0:47:37 > 0:47:40Plus, Mick Jones and Eddie Gray are injured.
0:47:40 > 0:47:42Well, like I said,
0:47:42 > 0:47:44you're buggered.
0:47:44 > 0:47:47What do I do, Pete?
0:47:47 > 0:47:49I need new players.
0:47:51 > 0:47:54Tell me who to buy.
0:47:54 > 0:47:56No, Brian.
0:47:56 > 0:48:00No-one scouts players like you, Pete. You're the best.
0:48:00 > 0:48:03We can sort this place out together.
0:48:03 > 0:48:05Hmm?
0:48:05 > 0:48:07You and me.
0:48:07 > 0:48:09Eh?
0:48:10 > 0:48:13Turn it around.
0:48:13 > 0:48:16It's too late, Brian.
0:48:16 > 0:48:19I'd have helped you once, but not now.
0:48:19 > 0:48:21Not after what was said.
0:48:22 > 0:48:25We're on our own now, remember?
0:48:25 > 0:48:27Each man for himself?
0:48:30 > 0:48:32And I think it would be better if you don't ring here again.
0:48:51 > 0:48:53'These are heady days for Brian Clough's Derby County,
0:48:53 > 0:48:55'champions of England, of course,
0:48:55 > 0:48:59'they have the biggest night in the club's history coming up in Turin in only four days' time.
0:48:59 > 0:49:03'The semi-final of the European Cup against Juventus.
0:49:03 > 0:49:06'But first today, they've got quite a tricky challenge.
0:49:06 > 0:49:11'They face Leeds United, whom they unseated as the First Division champions at the end of last season.
0:49:11 > 0:49:16'Leeds, one would imagine, will have revenge on their mind.'
0:49:16 > 0:49:18Get me today's team sheet, could you, Joe?
0:49:18 > 0:49:21There's always been a strong - some might say
0:49:21 > 0:49:23'unhealthy - rivalry between the two teams,
0:49:23 > 0:49:25'and the managers in particular.
0:49:25 > 0:49:29'It's well known there's no love lost between Don Revie and Brian Clough.'
0:49:29 > 0:49:32What's up, Uncle Sam?
0:49:32 > 0:49:35A bit below stairs for you here, isn't it?
0:49:35 > 0:49:37Taken a wrong turn somewhere?
0:49:37 > 0:49:39Just seen the team sheet.
0:49:39 > 0:49:42Hinton, O'Hare, Todd, Mackay, that's our strongest side.
0:49:42 > 0:49:44Of course it's our strongest side, it's Leeds United.
0:49:44 > 0:49:46Would you prefer I send out the apprentices?
0:49:46 > 0:49:49We're at Juventus midweek, semi-final of the European Cup.
0:49:49 > 0:49:51Biggest night in the club's history.
0:49:51 > 0:49:54- Couldn't you field...?- What?
0:49:54 > 0:49:57You know.
0:49:57 > 0:49:59A weaker side?
0:49:59 > 0:50:05Am I hearing right? Is the chairman of this football club seriously asking his manager to lose?
0:50:05 > 0:50:10- You know what I'm saying. - Against their biggest rivals?
0:50:10 > 0:50:12The chairman of this football club
0:50:12 > 0:50:17is asking his manager to be pragmatic and manage his resources.
0:50:17 > 0:50:21Prioritise. We've just embarked on a huge programme of refurbishment.
0:50:21 > 0:50:24Improvement. New stand. Better floodlights.
0:50:24 > 0:50:26We need a good run in Europe to pay for it.
0:50:29 > 0:50:33I'm going to pretend I didn't hear a word of this.
0:50:36 > 0:50:38You've still got an hour before kick-off.
0:50:38 > 0:50:39I'd reconsider if I were you.
0:50:39 > 0:50:43- I wouldn't want my employer to be unhappy.- My employer?
0:50:43 > 0:50:47Chairman of Derby County. Chairman long before you ever showed up.
0:50:47 > 0:50:50Oh, that's right.
0:50:50 > 0:50:55You were chairman of Derby County before I came here. I remember that.
0:50:55 > 0:50:59When Derby County were at the fucking foot of the Second Division.
0:50:59 > 0:51:05When nobody had heard of them for 20 years and nobody had heard of Sam bloody Longson ever.
0:51:05 > 0:51:09Full stop. And that's where you'd still fucking be if it wasn't for me.
0:51:09 > 0:51:14At the foot of the bloody Second Division where nobody remembered you and nobody had heard of you.
0:51:14 > 0:51:17There would be no Derby County without me.
0:51:17 > 0:51:19No League title.
0:51:19 > 0:51:21No champions of England.
0:51:21 > 0:51:24Not without Brian Clough.
0:51:24 > 0:51:28I'm gonna give you some good advice, Brian Clough.
0:51:28 > 0:51:33No matter how good you think you are or how clever, how many fancy new friends you make on the telly,
0:51:33 > 0:51:36the reality of footballing life is this.
0:51:36 > 0:51:39The chairman is the boss, then comes the directors,
0:51:39 > 0:51:42then the secretary, then the fans,
0:51:42 > 0:51:47then the players and then finally, last of all, bottom of the heap, the lowest of the low,
0:51:47 > 0:51:50comes the one, who in the end, we can all do without,
0:51:50 > 0:51:52the fucking manager.
0:51:58 > 0:52:00What are you doing, Brian?
0:52:08 > 0:52:10You are a bloody disgrace!
0:52:10 > 0:52:14Hey, Bremner, you should be in the bloody book for that!
0:52:14 > 0:52:17- Come on.- Look at this!
0:52:29 > 0:52:31Fucking come on then, you bastard!
0:52:33 > 0:52:38You see what your lads are doing? They don't deserve to be on the same pitch as my lads.
0:52:41 > 0:52:44FINAL WHISTLE BLOWS
0:52:44 > 0:52:46Brian.
0:52:46 > 0:52:49Good luck in Europe.
0:52:49 > 0:52:51Peter, good luck in Europe.
0:52:51 > 0:52:54CROWD: You fucking knobheads!
0:52:57 > 0:52:59Derby was unlucky, I can tell you.
0:52:59 > 0:53:01LAUGHTER
0:53:12 > 0:53:14You bloody fool.
0:53:26 > 0:53:28Are you disappointed, Mr Clough?
0:53:28 > 0:53:32Disappointed, not a bit. My players were heroic out there tonight.
0:53:32 > 0:53:35Effectively, we were playing the Italian champions
0:53:35 > 0:53:36with a reserve team.
0:53:36 > 0:53:40Many of my first team are injured thanks to the brutality of Leeds United.
0:53:40 > 0:53:45This happens when you have a chairman who authorises a multi-million pound refurbishment
0:53:45 > 0:53:49of the Directors' Box and hospitality suites before he pays for a proper squad.
0:53:49 > 0:53:54It depends on your priorities, players or prawn sandwiches. I know which I'd prefer.
0:53:54 > 0:53:58I know which honest, working-class Derby supporters would prefer too.
0:53:58 > 0:54:01HUBBUB
0:54:03 > 0:54:08- NURSE:- We're taking you into hospital now, love. Don't worry, OK?
0:54:10 > 0:54:11Heart attack, eh?
0:54:14 > 0:54:17Been having it for three weeks, they reckon, one way or another.
0:54:19 > 0:54:21They ran all sorts of tests on me.
0:54:21 > 0:54:23I told them the only thing they need to know
0:54:23 > 0:54:26was that I share my professional life with Brian Clough.
0:54:28 > 0:54:30That seemed to satisfy them.
0:54:33 > 0:54:35I'm only half joking, you know.
0:54:41 > 0:54:42We still got jobs?
0:54:42 > 0:54:44We have.
0:54:44 > 0:54:48Longson has tried to put a gagging order on me, of course.
0:54:48 > 0:54:52"Any further utterances in public or media appearances by Brian Clough
0:54:52 > 0:54:55"will be met with instant dismissal."
0:54:55 > 0:54:57Take notice and act accordingly.
0:54:57 > 0:55:00Would you like to hear my contrite reply?
0:55:00 > 0:55:02- Go on, then. - Written a letter to the board.
0:55:02 > 0:55:07You and I feel it is impossible to continue our good work with Derby County.
0:55:07 > 0:55:13We therefore wish to tender our resignations with immediate effect.
0:55:13 > 0:55:16- What?- What do you think?
0:55:17 > 0:55:20- I don't want to resign. - Don't worry, they won't let us.
0:55:20 > 0:55:22We just won them the Championship.
0:55:22 > 0:55:27But it'll strengthen our position and force them to get rid of Longson.
0:55:27 > 0:55:30Oh, no. No, Brian, they'll never do that.
0:55:30 > 0:55:33- He's chairman... - Look, I can't do it, Pete.
0:55:33 > 0:55:34I can't work with me hands tied.
0:55:34 > 0:55:38A chairman telling me what I can and can't do?
0:55:38 > 0:55:41You're picking the wrong enemy, Brian.
0:55:41 > 0:55:43The enemy's not Longson.
0:55:43 > 0:55:45It's Revie.
0:55:45 > 0:55:47And this obsession with Leeds.
0:55:47 > 0:55:49Don't be daft.
0:55:49 > 0:55:54We won the league, Pete. We're top dogs in Derby now, Longson can't stand it. That's the problem.
0:55:54 > 0:55:58No, it's not. It's you. This mad ambition.
0:55:58 > 0:56:02It comes and it goes. Sometimes it's good. Oh, yes.
0:56:02 > 0:56:04Like a fire that stirs everything up.
0:56:04 > 0:56:08Then there's this. This thing that takes over.
0:56:08 > 0:56:11Destroys everything that's good in your life.
0:56:16 > 0:56:18Please, Brian.
0:56:18 > 0:56:22Please tell me that this letter is just a draft.
0:56:22 > 0:56:25You've not sent it.
0:56:25 > 0:56:27I'll be out in a couple of days.
0:56:27 > 0:56:29Let me talk to them.
0:56:38 > 0:56:40What are you doing?
0:56:40 > 0:56:43You weren't supposed to accept our resignations.
0:56:43 > 0:56:46Shouldn't bloody well offer them, then, should you?
0:56:46 > 0:56:47Look, you can't get rid of us.
0:56:47 > 0:56:51It'd be a disaster for the club. For the whole of Derby.
0:56:51 > 0:56:57You can't keep shooting your mouth off the way you have been and issuing these ultimatums.
0:56:57 > 0:57:02With great reluctance, your resignations have been accepted.
0:57:02 > 0:57:04Look, you can't do this.
0:57:04 > 0:57:07- It's madness.- The decision stands.
0:57:07 > 0:57:11Car keys on the table and out.
0:57:11 > 0:57:14We're gonna create a footballing dynasty here.
0:57:14 > 0:57:17Derby could be one of the greats.
0:57:17 > 0:57:19Alongside United, Liverpool, Leeds.
0:57:19 > 0:57:22Now!
0:57:22 > 0:57:24And don't dare show your face here again.
0:57:40 > 0:57:43We've just heard that the controversial former manager
0:57:43 > 0:57:46of First Division Derby County, Brian Clough,
0:57:46 > 0:57:50has been sacked along with his assistant, Peter Taylor.
0:57:50 > 0:57:53The drama at Derby started in the streets outside the ground just before kick-off.
0:57:53 > 0:57:56About an hour, three-quarters of an hour before the match.
0:57:56 > 0:58:00- JOHN MOTSON: - 'And there in the stand is Brian Clough. And listen to the crowd.'
0:58:00 > 0:58:04CROWD CHANTS: We want Clough! We want Clough!
0:58:04 > 0:58:08'The chairman there answering the catcalls of the Derby crowd.'
0:58:08 > 0:58:09A big mouth, but he's a good manager.
0:58:09 > 0:58:11We don't want to lose him and we bloody lost.
0:58:11 > 0:58:13He might show off a bit sometimes, but he's brilliant.
0:58:13 > 0:58:14He brought this team up.
0:58:14 > 0:58:16Nobody on this world to touch him.
0:58:16 > 0:58:17I think it's terrible.
0:58:17 > 0:58:20- You think?- Yeah. The club will come to an end, I think.
0:58:21 > 0:58:25- RADIO:- 'Derby County players have officially now joined the protest
0:58:25 > 0:58:27'against the sacking of manager Brian Clough.'
0:58:27 > 0:58:28Off to bed, you three.
0:58:28 > 0:58:30'The plotting's been done in blackout
0:58:30 > 0:58:34'as the power cuts put in force by Prime Minister Edward Heath continue.'
0:58:34 > 0:58:38Quiet, quiet. "To the directors of Derby County Football Club.
0:58:38 > 0:58:44"We, the undersigned players, are unanimous in our support and respect
0:58:44 > 0:58:46"for Mr Clough and Mr Taylor.
0:58:46 > 0:58:51"And ask that they be reinstated as manager and assistant manager with the club."
0:58:51 > 0:58:53- Yeah!- "Signed by...
0:58:53 > 0:58:58"Signed by John O' Hare, Roy McFarland, Colin Todd,
0:58:58 > 0:59:01"Kevin Hector, Alan Hinton..."
0:59:01 > 0:59:03But not Dave Mackay.
0:59:07 > 0:59:09Who's just accepted the job.
0:59:09 > 0:59:10What?
0:59:10 > 0:59:12Dave Mackay?
0:59:12 > 0:59:15It's in the evening paper.
0:59:15 > 0:59:17I signed that fat fuck.
0:59:17 > 0:59:21Saved his professional life, gave him two years as a player.
0:59:21 > 0:59:24Dave Mackay. He wouldn't fucking dare.
0:59:30 > 0:59:33What have you done, Brian?
0:59:33 > 0:59:36I love this place.
0:59:36 > 0:59:39I'm happy here. So were you.
0:59:41 > 0:59:44It's not over yet, Pete.
0:59:44 > 0:59:46Lawyers are issuing a writ tomorrow against Longson.
0:59:46 > 0:59:48The players have called a meeting.
0:59:48 > 0:59:50There's talk they're going on strike.
0:59:50 > 0:59:53There's protest marches arranged for this weekend.
0:59:53 > 0:59:55Why didn't you keep your mouth shut?
0:59:55 > 0:59:58We're never gonna find another place like this again.
0:59:58 > 1:00:01Brian, it's Mike Bamber on the phone.
1:00:03 > 1:00:06- Who's Mike Bamber?- I don't know.
1:00:06 > 1:00:08Chairman of Brighton and Hove Albion.
1:00:22 > 1:00:26Big smiles, lads. The Johns are back in town, eh?
1:00:26 > 1:00:29I've known this one since he was 16.
1:00:29 > 1:00:31This one just plays like he's 16.
1:00:31 > 1:00:34Are you gonna buy any more?
1:00:34 > 1:00:37This one, Duncan McKenzie. Take your hands out of your pockets, son.
1:00:37 > 1:00:39Remember that name, 28 goals last season.
1:00:39 > 1:00:42How many are you gonna get this year?
1:00:42 > 1:00:45- Just more than 28, really.- Yeah.
1:00:45 > 1:00:48That's why I got you. Not for your quick wits, for your quick boots.
1:00:48 > 1:00:52I think I scored 28 goals in one game once!
1:00:52 > 1:00:53But they're gonna do the job.
1:00:53 > 1:00:56They'll be the saviours of Leeds United, this lot.
1:01:01 > 1:01:04Lads.
1:01:04 > 1:01:06What you buy them for?
1:01:06 > 1:01:10A little poof and a pair of reserves. Waste of bloody money.
1:01:10 > 1:01:14Duncan McKenzie scored 28 goals last season.
1:01:14 > 1:01:17John O'Hare and John McGovern are both internationals.
1:01:17 > 1:01:19We've got two strikers.
1:01:19 > 1:01:22Allan Clarke and Mick Jones. They're internationals too.
1:01:22 > 1:01:25Yeah, one's injured and the other suspended.
1:01:25 > 1:01:28Maybe if you spent a bit more time on the training ground,
1:01:28 > 1:01:31you wouldn't have to waste money buying Derby rejects.
1:01:31 > 1:01:33I mean, we have a game on Saturday, against QPR.
1:01:33 > 1:01:36- Or had you forgotten? - No, I hadn't forgotten.
1:01:36 > 1:01:40Well, you haven't told us a single thing about how QPR are gonna play.
1:01:40 > 1:01:43Mr Revie would've had files and dossiers prepared.
1:01:43 > 1:01:46Had the reserves playing the Rangers' way.
1:01:46 > 1:01:48The first team looking out for this and that.
1:01:48 > 1:01:51Bollocks to Don Revie!
1:01:54 > 1:01:57You're professional footballers.
1:01:57 > 1:02:02Stop Stan Bowles. That's all you need to know about QPR.
1:02:02 > 1:02:05And I don't have to justify myself to you.
1:02:05 > 1:02:11Not how or when I conduct training, not who I buy or pick to play.
1:02:11 > 1:02:13No.
1:02:13 > 1:02:16No, not to us.
1:02:16 > 1:02:20But come Saturday afternoon, there'll be 40,000 people out there
1:02:20 > 1:02:23who you do have to justify yourself to.
1:02:40 > 1:02:41CROWD NOISE
1:02:55 > 1:02:58PHONE DIAL TONE
1:03:00 > 1:03:03- 'Hello?'- You must be loving this.
1:03:03 > 1:03:06- Loving every minute.- 'Who is this?'
1:03:06 > 1:03:08Watching it all fall apart.
1:03:08 > 1:03:11- It's Brian Clough.- 'What?'
1:03:11 > 1:03:14They won't play for me.
1:03:14 > 1:03:16Your boys.
1:03:16 > 1:03:19Your bastard sons.
1:03:19 > 1:03:23- And never will. - 'What are you talking about?'
1:03:23 > 1:03:25It's...
1:03:25 > 1:03:27It's two o'clock in the morning.
1:03:27 > 1:03:30Why are you ringing here?
1:03:30 > 1:03:33They're loyal to you. Thought you might like to know that.
1:03:33 > 1:03:36Loyal to big daddy Don.
1:03:36 > 1:03:39For God's sake, go to sleep, man.
1:03:39 > 1:03:41Where's your dignity?
1:03:41 > 1:03:44And don't ring here again.
1:03:49 > 1:03:51SINGLE TONE HUMS ON TV
1:04:45 > 1:04:50- ELDERLY COUPLE: - Look, the pub's just down there. Not far to go.- No, no.- Just down there.
1:04:50 > 1:04:53Oh, I don't like to be beside the seaside.
1:04:53 > 1:04:56Hey, give it a chance.
1:04:56 > 1:04:58Brighton and Hove Albion?
1:04:58 > 1:05:00Have you seen where they are?
1:05:00 > 1:05:03- Bottom of the Third Division.- We can get them out of there like that.
1:05:03 > 1:05:05We did it with Hartlepools, with Derby.
1:05:05 > 1:05:09We cared about Hartlepools and Derby. We're from the north, Pete.
1:05:09 > 1:05:11What do we care about Brighton?
1:05:11 > 1:05:14Bloody southerners. Look where we are.
1:05:14 > 1:05:16- We're almost in France.- Hey.
1:05:16 > 1:05:19They've got money, this lot. And ambition.
1:05:19 > 1:05:22Get a lungful of that air, eh? Be good for me health.
1:05:22 > 1:05:25You can't manage a team that's not your own people.
1:05:25 > 1:05:26Not what you know.
1:05:26 > 1:05:30Anyway, the protest movement in Derby is still in full flow. We can still get our jobs back.
1:05:30 > 1:05:33No, we won't.
1:05:33 > 1:05:35It's over, Brian.
1:05:35 > 1:05:38It's over, mate. They're never gonna take us back.
1:05:38 > 1:05:39Not now.
1:05:42 > 1:05:44Come on.
1:05:48 > 1:05:54Sign today, and I'll give you a bonus of seven grand. Each.
1:05:54 > 1:05:56Seven grand?
1:05:56 > 1:05:58You hear that, Brian?
1:05:58 > 1:06:03Plus, a salary that exceeds by 20% what Derby were paying you.
1:06:03 > 1:06:06Very generous, Mike.
1:06:06 > 1:06:09- Terrific. - But those are First Division wages.
1:06:09 > 1:06:12First Division is where I want this club to be.
1:06:12 > 1:06:15You sure you can afford it?
1:06:15 > 1:06:17You sure you're worth it?
1:06:19 > 1:06:21Cheeky sod.
1:06:24 > 1:06:26We're gonna need a holiday first.
1:06:26 > 1:06:29- Take as long as you like. - Two weeks, somewhere hot, on you.
1:06:29 > 1:06:32I'll even throw in the bloody trunks.
1:07:00 > 1:07:03Right. Hey, come on. You get over there. Come on.
1:07:08 > 1:07:12Yes! Come on! Champions of the world.
1:07:14 > 1:07:15Peter.
1:07:22 > 1:07:23Brian!
1:07:25 > 1:07:27Come on.
1:08:10 > 1:08:12You're a hard man to find, Mr Clough.
1:08:14 > 1:08:16Who's looking?
1:08:16 > 1:08:21Keith Archer. I'm secretary of Leeds United Football Club.
1:08:29 > 1:08:32I was sent by my chairman, Mr Cussins.
1:08:32 > 1:08:36He wants me to speak to you face to face.
1:08:36 > 1:08:38Bloody hell.
1:08:39 > 1:08:42- But we hate Leeds. - It's the top flight, Pete.
1:08:42 > 1:08:44It's the First Division.
1:08:44 > 1:08:45But we gave Brighton our word.
1:08:45 > 1:08:47And they paid us the money.
1:08:47 > 1:08:52We can give back the money. Bollocks to bloody Brighton. I'd go mad.
1:08:52 > 1:08:55- We'd all go mad down there. - Mike Bamber's a good man.
1:08:55 > 1:08:57Oh, do me a favour.
1:08:57 > 1:09:00Look, he had faith in us. He offered us a job when no-one else would.
1:09:00 > 1:09:04He offered us a job. Now someone else has offered us a better one.
1:09:04 > 1:09:07And not just anyone, the best team in the country.
1:09:07 > 1:09:09Come on, Pete.
1:09:09 > 1:09:13That means it'd be the Charity Shield at Wembley in a month's time.
1:09:13 > 1:09:15You know, European Cup after.
1:09:15 > 1:09:18But even if we won them, they'd be Revie's achievements.
1:09:18 > 1:09:21His team.
1:09:21 > 1:09:22No, I gave Brighton my word, Brian.
1:09:22 > 1:09:26- I can't do it.- What? And you'd sooner fester down there
1:09:26 > 1:09:30with all those bloody Tories in that blue-rinse retirement home by the sea?
1:09:30 > 1:09:32Brighton's a small club, I'll give you that.
1:09:32 > 1:09:35- Bloody midgets. - But at least we'd be together.
1:09:35 > 1:09:36You and me, Brian.
1:09:36 > 1:09:39We can build them up. Make them our own.
1:09:39 > 1:09:41Like we did with Hartlepools, Derby.
1:09:41 > 1:09:44Then what? Bottle again soon as it comes to the big time?
1:09:44 > 1:09:46That's always been the trouble with you, Pete.
1:09:46 > 1:09:48No ambition.
1:09:48 > 1:09:50That's the trouble with you, Brian.
1:09:50 > 1:09:51Too much ambition.
1:09:51 > 1:09:53Too much greed, too much everything.
1:09:53 > 1:09:58Yeah, you knock it. But it's done you proud over the years, hasn't it, my ambition?
1:09:58 > 1:10:01Without me, you'd still be in Burton bloody Albion.
1:10:01 > 1:10:04Yes, and without you, I'd still have a job in Derby.
1:10:04 > 1:10:06A job and a home that I love.
1:10:06 > 1:10:08Oh, yes.
1:10:08 > 1:10:10You're the shop window. I grant you that.
1:10:10 > 1:10:15The razzle and the bloody dazzle. But I'm the goods in the back!
1:10:15 > 1:10:18And without me, without somebody to save you from yourself,
1:10:18 > 1:10:21Brian fucking Clough, you're not just half!
1:10:21 > 1:10:23- You're nothing!- I'm nothing?
1:10:23 > 1:10:25I'm nothing? Don't make me laugh.
1:10:25 > 1:10:28What does that make you then, Taylor? Something?
1:10:28 > 1:10:30You're half of nothing.
1:10:30 > 1:10:34Nothing's parasite. A big fat pilot fish that feeds on nothing.
1:10:34 > 1:10:37A bloody nobody!
1:10:37 > 1:10:39The forgotten man!
1:10:39 > 1:10:42History's fucking afterthought!
1:10:57 > 1:11:00- BARRY DAVIES: - Boos here at Elland Road for manager Brian Clough,
1:11:00 > 1:11:01which I'm sure won't worry him.
1:11:01 > 1:11:06Also boos for John McGovern. Never nice to see a crowd get at a player.
1:11:06 > 1:11:08I'm sure that will worry Brian Clough.
1:11:08 > 1:11:13It takes time to settle into a new club. It's not McGovern's fault that Billy Bremner is missing.
1:11:24 > 1:11:26- CROWD:- # One Don Revie
1:11:26 > 1:11:30# There's only one Don Revie One Don Revie
1:11:30 > 1:11:32# There's only one Don Revie
1:11:33 > 1:11:35# One Don Revie
1:11:35 > 1:11:37# One Don Revie
1:11:37 > 1:11:42# There's only one Don Revie
1:11:42 > 1:11:45# One Don Revie... #
1:11:55 > 1:11:56- CROWD:- Fucking O'Hare.
1:11:56 > 1:12:00You're fucking useless. Leeds doesn't want you. Fuck off, Clough.
1:12:03 > 1:12:05Fuck off, fuck off. We don't fucking want you here.
1:12:13 > 1:12:16Clough. Players' lounge, Brian.
1:12:16 > 1:12:1710 minutes.
1:12:39 > 1:12:41Close the door.
1:12:46 > 1:12:49This is the worst start to a season Leeds has had in 20 years.
1:12:49 > 1:12:52Four points from five games.
1:12:53 > 1:12:55Second from fucking bottom.
1:13:00 > 1:13:02What's going on?
1:13:02 > 1:13:03As far as I can see,
1:13:03 > 1:13:08there's no relationship, no understanding between players and management.
1:13:09 > 1:13:11Well, not a healthy one anyway.
1:13:14 > 1:13:19Perhaps if Mr Clough was to step outside, we might be able to speak our minds.
1:13:24 > 1:13:26All right.
1:13:26 > 1:13:30If you wouldn't mind, Brian.
1:13:30 > 1:13:32Just for a few minutes.
1:13:34 > 1:13:36As you wish.
1:13:47 > 1:13:51< Nobody likes him. The atmosphere in the dressing room is non-existent.
1:13:51 > 1:13:53< He's banned us from doing all the things we used to do.
1:13:53 > 1:13:56< Like playing bingo, carpet bowls.
1:13:56 > 1:13:58< Tactically, he's never prepared.
1:13:58 > 1:14:01< Right, he doesn't even tell us how he wants us to play.
1:14:01 > 1:14:04< We are not even allowed to mention Mr Revie's name.
1:14:06 > 1:14:08< What me and the lads are trying to say, Mr Cussins, is...
1:14:08 > 1:14:11< Compared to Mr Revie,
1:14:11 > 1:14:13< he's just not good enough.
1:14:13 > 1:14:15< What's going on, boss?
1:14:18 > 1:14:22The last two words of every story ever written is what's going on.
1:14:23 > 1:14:25"The fucking end."
1:14:28 > 1:14:30Let's be honest, Brian.
1:14:30 > 1:14:33It's not working, is it?
1:14:33 > 1:14:35The players aren't happy.
1:14:35 > 1:14:38We're not happy.
1:14:38 > 1:14:43In truth, we should probably never have hired you without Peter Taylor.
1:14:47 > 1:14:49So,
1:14:49 > 1:14:52- what do you want to do about it? - It's not working.
1:14:55 > 1:14:58- We have to part company. - Fine, it will cost you 25 grand.
1:14:58 > 1:15:00What? For six weeks' work?
1:15:00 > 1:15:03Plus three-and-a-half grand for Jimmy Gordon.
1:15:03 > 1:15:07And an agreement that Leeds United will pay both our income taxes for the next three years.
1:15:07 > 1:15:10- That is bloody criminal. - You can throw in the Merc and all.
1:15:10 > 1:15:14- What?- Might be a bit flash for a man out of a job, but I've grown to like it.
1:15:14 > 1:15:16Who do you bloody think you are?
1:15:16 > 1:15:19Brian Clough.
1:15:19 > 1:15:21Brian Howard Clough.
1:15:24 > 1:15:27Come on. There's something we have to do on the way.
1:15:29 > 1:15:30Won't take long.
1:15:38 > 1:15:40Thanks for agreeing to this.
1:15:40 > 1:15:42No problem.
1:15:42 > 1:15:44Go easy on me, though. There's a good lad.
1:15:52 > 1:15:55- How are you feeling, Mr Clough? - Not bad. Not bad.
1:15:55 > 1:16:00Onwards and upwards, and all that type of thing.
1:16:00 > 1:16:03What's this? We expecting guests?
1:16:12 > 1:16:13Take a seat there.
1:16:15 > 1:16:16You bastards.
1:16:22 > 1:16:24Stand by, studio.
1:16:28 > 1:16:33Title's out in five, four, three...
1:16:35 > 1:16:38Good evening. Tonight, the football world was stunned by the news
1:16:38 > 1:16:41that Brian Clough has been sacked as manager of Leeds United.
1:16:41 > 1:16:45We'll be talking not just to Brian, but also to the man he replaced,
1:16:45 > 1:16:47whose success he couldn't emulate, Don Revie.
1:16:47 > 1:16:49To Brian Clough, first of all.
1:16:49 > 1:16:52What's your reaction to being sacked in this fashion?
1:16:52 > 1:16:59Well, obviously, Austin, me initial reaction is one of shock at finding myself here with him.
1:17:01 > 1:17:03But in answer to your question,
1:17:03 > 1:17:08six weeks is hardly a long time to be given a chance in any job.
1:17:08 > 1:17:13I would hope that Revie will get a lot longer time in his.
1:17:13 > 1:17:17Do you consider it was possible to step into your shoes, Don Revie, to replace you?
1:17:17 > 1:17:20Well, being very, very honest,
1:17:20 > 1:17:23I think it was a very difficult job for anyone to do.
1:17:23 > 1:17:25I do feel that Brian Clough...
1:17:25 > 1:17:29- Now, I'll not call him Clough, I'll not take him down like that. - Thank you.
1:17:29 > 1:17:32I believe that he made it more difficult on himself than he need have.
1:17:32 > 1:17:35And how did I do that, Don?
1:17:35 > 1:17:38All those accusations about how dirty my players were, about...
1:17:38 > 1:17:40Well, they were dirty, Don.
1:17:40 > 1:17:42That's not true. Oh, no.
1:17:42 > 1:17:46Last two seasons we were top of the charts for entertaining football.
1:17:46 > 1:17:49Before that, you also topped all the disciplinary charts.
1:17:49 > 1:17:52Should've been docked points, and sent down to the Second Division.
1:17:52 > 1:17:56Listening to you, I'm struck this is not just a business matter for you both.
1:17:56 > 1:17:59It's more than that. It's personal. Am I right?
1:17:59 > 1:18:02Well, we're very different people, Don and I.
1:18:02 > 1:18:06We have different styles in football and in life.
1:18:06 > 1:18:08I'm a warm man,
1:18:08 > 1:18:10an idealist.
1:18:10 > 1:18:13I do believe in fairies. And that's my outlook.
1:18:13 > 1:18:15Don is slightly different.
1:18:15 > 1:18:19There's a hardness to him. He's a cold person.
1:18:19 > 1:18:22- You don't know me.- That lack of warmth, that coldness was there.
1:18:22 > 1:18:25- It permeated the club when I arrived.- I totally refute that.
1:18:25 > 1:18:28You ask any of my players. I was like a father to them.
1:18:28 > 1:18:31In that club every morning, massaging those boys. Did you do that for them?
1:18:31 > 1:18:33They would never have let me.
1:18:33 > 1:18:36Did you try? You didn't even try.
1:18:36 > 1:18:38I soaped those boys down with me own hands.
1:18:38 > 1:18:42You just went to Leeds, no thought for the club, no thought for the players.
1:18:42 > 1:18:46- Just on some mad personal vendetta against me.- Are you surprised?
1:18:46 > 1:18:49- What else was I gonna do? After what you did.- What did I do?
1:18:49 > 1:18:52Come on, Don, you know exactly.
1:18:52 > 1:18:54January 27th, 1968.
1:18:54 > 1:18:57See, I even remember the date.
1:18:57 > 1:19:01You came to Derby County, third round of the FA Cup,
1:19:01 > 1:19:04- and you refused to shake my hand. - Never.
1:19:04 > 1:19:07A matter of principle, I always shake the other manager's hand.
1:19:07 > 1:19:11No, you shook Peter Taylor's hand and me trainer, Jimmy Gordon's.
1:19:11 > 1:19:13- I probably didn't see you. - You saw me.
1:19:13 > 1:19:16Considered me beneath you, looked down on me, dismissed me,
1:19:16 > 1:19:20just like you did every other club and every other manager.
1:19:20 > 1:19:24Never would I knowingly refuse to shake a colleague's hand. No.
1:19:24 > 1:19:28But the truth is you were down in the Second Division at the time.
1:19:28 > 1:19:31You know, I probably didn't know who you were.
1:19:32 > 1:19:35Didn't know who I was? Pull the other one.
1:19:35 > 1:19:37- That's the truth. - Well, you certainly know now.
1:19:37 > 1:19:40Oh, we all know now.
1:19:40 > 1:19:44We know you as the man whose constant outbursts and defaming of his fellow professionals
1:19:44 > 1:19:48has brought this game, this beautiful game, into disrepute.
1:19:48 > 1:19:51Who had a very good job at Derby, and managed to get the sack.
1:19:51 > 1:19:55Who had the best partner in the game in Peter Taylor, and threw him away.
1:19:55 > 1:19:59Who was given one of the greatest gifts in British football, Leeds United,
1:19:59 > 1:20:02a club that in ten years, hadn't finished outside the top four,
1:20:02 > 1:20:04and took them to the bottom of the First Division.
1:20:04 > 1:20:07Oh, yes, it's fair to say we all know who you are now.
1:20:09 > 1:20:12OK, unfortunately, we're gonna have to leave it there.
1:20:12 > 1:20:14Let's see where we are in a year's time, Donald Revie.
1:20:14 > 1:20:17- Oh, dear, oh, dear. - Let's see where we both are in five.
1:20:17 > 1:20:22That's it for tonight. I'd like to thank both my guests, Brian Clough and Don Revie, the England manager.
1:20:22 > 1:20:23Thank you, Austin.
1:20:26 > 1:20:28And we're out. Thank you, gentlemen.
1:20:28 > 1:20:30Thank you.
1:21:22 > 1:21:23Boys?
1:21:24 > 1:21:26Do you think your old man is a fool?
1:21:26 > 1:21:27No.
1:21:27 > 1:21:30No.
1:21:30 > 1:21:31You're wrong.
1:21:33 > 1:21:34He bloody is.
1:21:37 > 1:21:40Who is the least mature person in this car?
1:21:40 > 1:21:42Who most needs to bloody grow up?
1:21:46 > 1:21:50Who's been making a right arse of himself in the past few months?
1:21:56 > 1:21:59Who fancies a trip to the seaside, to see Uncle Pete?
1:21:59 > 1:22:01- Me!- Me!
1:22:01 > 1:22:02Yeah, me too.
1:22:41 > 1:22:43Just wait in the car for a minute, lads.
1:22:43 > 1:22:46I'm just gonna have a chat with Uncle Pete.
1:23:03 > 1:23:06So, chucked you out already, have they?
1:23:07 > 1:23:09They have.
1:23:11 > 1:23:13So how long was that?
1:23:13 > 1:23:1544 days.
1:23:18 > 1:23:19Impressive.
1:23:28 > 1:23:29So, what are you doing here?
1:23:33 > 1:23:35Don't make this difficult for me, Pete.
1:23:37 > 1:23:39You know why I'm here.
1:23:44 > 1:23:46I won't bloody grovel.
1:23:47 > 1:23:49All right.
1:23:49 > 1:23:52Well, all right, I'm grovelling.
1:23:53 > 1:23:55I'm on me knees.
1:24:00 > 1:24:02"I apologise,
1:24:02 > 1:24:04"unreservedly,
1:24:04 > 1:24:06"for being a twat."
1:24:09 > 1:24:11I apologise for being a twat.
1:24:11 > 1:24:13"Unreservedly."
1:24:14 > 1:24:15Unreservedly.
1:24:15 > 1:24:19"Because I can't do it without you."
1:24:20 > 1:24:22Because I can't do it without you.
1:24:22 > 1:24:25"I'm nothing without you."
1:24:26 > 1:24:29I'm nothing without you.
1:24:31 > 1:24:35"Please, please, baby, take me back."
1:24:35 > 1:24:37Fuck off.
1:24:37 > 1:24:39All right. Fine.
1:24:39 > 1:24:41Please. Please...
1:24:44 > 1:24:46baby...
1:24:47 > 1:24:50take me back.
1:25:05 > 1:25:07Come on.
1:25:24 > 1:25:27You're gonna fuck me up again, aren't you?
1:25:27 > 1:25:29I love you, you know.
1:25:29 > 1:25:31I know.
1:25:31 > 1:25:33But it won't stop you.
1:25:35 > 1:25:38So would you sooner go through it all without me?
1:25:44 > 1:25:45Never.
1:26:05 > 1:26:07Hey.
1:26:07 > 1:26:09Come here, you two. Come here.
1:26:12 > 1:26:13Come here.
1:26:16 > 1:26:18Hey.
1:26:20 > 1:26:21Wanna see your Auntie Lily?
1:26:21 > 1:26:24- Yeah.- Go on, then.
1:26:24 > 1:26:26Well, do you want a drink while you're here?
1:26:26 > 1:26:28Well, I wouldn't say no.
1:26:29 > 1:26:31I got a drop of cooking sherry.
1:27:06 > 1:27:08We've got several things in common.
1:27:08 > 1:27:11But the main thing we've got in common is we want the same things.
1:27:11 > 1:27:15Do you do let him speak from time to time? I'll put a question to him.
1:27:15 > 1:27:19Do you find it difficult, Peter, to get a word in? He's quite a good talker, isn't he?
1:27:19 > 1:27:21Yeah. In public, yes, but...
