Clough Stories (1)

Colin Shields was a close friend of Brian Clough and one of the few people - besides the players - that Cloughie allowed to travel on the team coach.

In the first part of his chat with Green Jumper host Marcus Alton, Colin recalls travelling with Roy Keane on the day the young midfielder made his debut for Nottingham Forest.

He also reveals one of the secrets of success on the European trips - the pork pies he delivered onto the team bus!

Yes, there's some amusing stories in this two-part interview with Colin, whose book 'Champagne Memories' is supporting good causes. It's available at brianclough.com.

You'll also hear from the digital artist Matt Wilkinson who talks about what inspired him to recreate some iconic images of Cloughie on his popular Rogues Gallery website.
