The Proposal

A marriage proposal is a special moment for any couple, but Brian Clough made it an incredible one for fan Darren and his partner Sam.

"When I saw Brian's car in the car park I became a quivering wreck. I couldn't believe it ," says Darren, who had planned his own surprise for Sam.

The couple's memorable encounter with Cloughie - and how he helped them celebrate their engagement in style - is described in this Bonus episode.

It also includes memories of Brian taking his players to the coast for an unusual way of easing their injuries. Colin Shields, who became a close friend of Brian, describes what happened.

'The Proposal' is hosted by Marcus Alton, the editor of the non profit tribute website brianclough.com.
