In 'Nobody Ever Says Thank You' Jonathan Wilson seeks to blow apart a few myths that surround Clough,and lay bare the contradictions and flaws in his make-up.
Unfailingly helpful to pensioners,always considerate with kids,Clough was a man who'd think nothing of punching an errant player in the solar plexus.But,equally,Wilson's account contains entertaining and warm testimony from players who'd run through the proverbial brick wall for him: from team-mates at Sunderland and Middlesborough,to the likes of Colin Todd, Steve Hodge,Brian Laws,Lee Glover and Mark Crossley. Wilson also probes the catastrophic split with Peter Taylor and the darkness that followed.He portrays a man always generous with money,who
nevertheless came to see football as a game that owed him a living; and reveals how football initially offered Brian Clough a chance of glory,how it hardened him to the realities of professional life . . . . then finally broke him.
