Best manager out of these on 11:25 - Apr 26 by Leadbelly
Heart says Revie, head says Clough but, whilst it pains me to ask, why is Ferguson not an option?
Sir Alex Ferguson perhaps but
Brian Clough - best manager England never had
Some of his quotes: "Don't send me flowers when I'm dead. If you like me, send them while I'm alive." "They say Rome wasn't built in a day, but I wasn't on that particular job." "When I go, God's going to have to give up his favourite chair." "Beckham? His wife can't sing and his barber can't cut hair." "I like my women to be feminine, not sliding into tackles and covered in mud." "If a chairman sacks the manager he initially appointed, he should go as well." "I wouldn't say I was the best manager in the business. But I was in the top one." "I've decided to pick my moment to retire very carefully - in about 200 years time." "Academically, I was thick. School wasn't bad, but I was." "The river Trent is lovely, I know because I have walked on it for 18 years."

Thanks for those wonderful memories, Durham.
One to add (I think it was Cloughie): "if it moves, kick it. If it doesn't move, kick it till it does".

Another Clough quote “Football is a very simple game. When the ball is in our box, kick it out, when the ball is in their box, kick it in”
