Brian Clough
Don't send me flowers when I'm dead. If you like me, send them while I'm alive.
Brian Clough
Being thick isn't an affliction if you're a footballer, because your brains need to be in your feet. And Beckham works hard, he's brave and he crosses a ball superbly. He treats a football like he does a wife, lovingly, with caresses.
Brian Clough
If a player is not interfering with play then he shouldn't be on the pitch.
Brian Clough
If God had wanted us to play football in the sky, He'd have put grass up there.

Brian Clough
If any one of my players isn’t interfering with play, they’re not getting paid.
Brian Clough
There are more hooligans in the House of Commons than at a football match.
Brian Clough
Saturday comes again, welcome or not, it comes again like it always does, welcome or not, wanted or not, another judgment day - The chance to be saved, the chance to be damned.
Brian Clough
We used to go to the pictures every Saturday night but we had to leave a little bit early and get home and watch Match of the Day - and my wife still complains she missed the last five minutes of every film we saw.
Brian Clough
When I go, God's going to have to give up his favourite chair.
Brian Clough
Anybody who can do anything in Leicester but make a jumper has got to be a genius.
Brian Clough
Telling the entire world and his dog how good a manager I was. I knew I was the best but I should have said nowt and kept the pressure off 'cos they'd have worked it out for themselves.
Brian Clough
Who the hell wants fourteen pairs of shoes when they go on holiday? I haven't had fourteen pairs in my life.
