Clough Stories - Headline News

From his first interview with Cloughie ("Yes, I was definitely nervous - I was meeting a legend") to their last emotional meeting ("I was on the verge of tears"), former TV sports reporter Dennis Coath has a wealth of Clough memories.

"There was no point in having a list of questions ready - you'd have to rip them up!" says Dennis as he recalls interviewing the Miracle Manager.

Dennis looks back at his eventful career in journalism in an entertaining new book: 'Rats, Pies and Pigeon Poo' which is published by Olympia.
