I'm sure that was the game Dyche was thinking about. |  |

I thought Clough said the opposite. Something along the lines of, you stop Stan Bowles, you stop QPR, erroneous in its own way but illustrated his high regard for Stan. |  | | |

He was such a fan of Stan that he bought him later in his career from us, even when it was obvious that Stan was clearly on the decline. |  | | |

In the film, The Damned United, when managing Leeds he definitely refers to the need to stop Stan Bowles from playing if they want to win the match. He obviously then signed Stan later so I think he had a high regard for him. Stan's thoughts were different though with his famous quote that when he was at Forest that they communicated by rumour because Clough was rarely at training. Fantastic manager though. | | | |

And they famously didn’t get on - hence the brilliant ‘communicating by rumour’ comment by Stan. |  | | |

Though he alienated him at Forest by playing him out of position, telling him he was just there to supply John Robertson, and then banning him from Robertson's testimonial if memory serves. Stan's opinion of Clough was that he was overrated and had little involvement in training. (Mind you, he said that about a lot of people, including Trevor Brooking, who was a better and more consistent, if less entertaining, midfielder, though it sticks in my craw to say so.)
