    Tbh I've not seen one.

    I think it's a great trubute to a fantastic manager and assistant that they took a small provincial club from nothing to greatness.

    Sadly the great man isn't here anymore and that small provincial club has since crawled back into its shell and shows no signs of emerging. That's why history is so important as without it we can't remember and reminisce.

    A sequel to one of the greatest football films ever made Damned Utd comes " I Believe in Miracles" two successful clubs managed by the greatest manager the world has ever known Brian Clough. As a football fan i shall be going to see it in the cinema.

    'Another documentary/film on Cloughie's success at Forest', Romanis? Totally agree with Ramstein. Sure the new one is worth a watch and he achieved a great deal with both Derby and Forest but 'The Damned United' was largely about his doomed one and a half months with Leeds in 1974 and nothing to do with you lot.

    To be honest I've watched the damned utd and I have to agree with Barbara Clough and a host of Leeds players. True he failed but it wasn't a true and accurate picture, I certainly hope this is.

    It's a sad fact that not enough has been made or said of Clough and Taylor's time at Derby. What he there was phenomenal and the DU is false in suggesting that Mackay stabbed Clough in the back to take over at Derby. He had already left Derby and was Forest manager and was the only man capable of filling the gap at the Baseball Ground. The work he did and the 1975 championship winning team seems to have been overlooked by historians rather unfairly. You stopped Liverpool a feat that Clough himself did at Forest. Just imagine without Mackay and Clough Liverpool would have won around 6 or 7 titles in a row and 5 straight European Cups. Gary Birtles said it nice when he mentioned that everytime he sees the Kop flags - 1977, 1978 and then 1981 - there's a 2 year gap there and we did that, just like you did in 1975.

    Cheers to Clough, Taylor, Mackay and to Derby and Forest.
