Clough Stories (2)

In the second part of this fascinating interview, Colin Shields shares precious memories of life away from the spotlight with Brian Clough.

Colin was a close friend of Cloughie and one of the few people - besides the players - who was allowed to travel on the team bus.

There are some great stories in this second installment of Marcus Alton's interview with Colin. The pair worked together to produce the tribute book Champagne Memories.

The book is supporting good causes: The Royal British Legion and the children's charity the NSPCC. Signed copies are available at the tribute website, briancloughcom.
