The Phone Call - Nigel Jemson (trailer)

"I thought it was one of the players trying a prank on me," says Nigel Jemson as he recalls the phone call which changed his life.

The voice on the other end of the line said, "It's Brian Clough here, I understand you want to sign for me."

The former striker describes what happened next in this entertaining chat with Green Jumper host Marcus Alton.

This episode is a trailer for the full, exclusive interview in which Nigel talks about life behind the scenes with Cloughie - the man he describes as "the best football manager who ever lived."
