Clough Stories - Nigel Jemson (2)

"He used to send my mum a bouquet of flowers every year with a Christmas card. That was the class of the fella."

From the heartbreak of being left out of Brian Clough's 1991 FA Cup Final line-up, to receiving a bouquet of flowers from the Miracle Manager after a car crash, this is a fascinating interview with Cloughie legend Nigel Jemson.

It's the second part of Marcus Alton's chat with the former striker, who also recalls his winning goal in the League Cup Final - and Cloughie's nickname for him.
