Description

I was reminded of my Father telling me about players from this era, muddy pitches, players that (like Garry) been carpet fitters or labourers or car salesman before getting their big break.

Read all The story of how three young working-class lads from Nottingham went on to become unlikely heroes and reach the pinnacle of professional football when unfashionable Nottingham Forest, under the mercurial Brian Clough, won the European Cup not just once, but twice, in 1979 and 198. Three footballers recount their climb to the top of the professional game during a period of austerity and economic turmoil. Fantastic archive footage from the era as well as football action with all the different threads woven together superbly.Two European Cups, a league title, two European Super Cups, four League Cups and close to two decades of cherished memories - Cloughie really was unique.

All three are working-class men from Nottingham who fought their way to the top despite the obstacles they faced, which included rampant racism and discrimination.

I particularly liked the candid camera work, and the director John Warrington deserves great credit for keeping the feeling of ‘being in Nottingham’ running throughout the film. What comes across in the documentary is that all three of these guys have each others backs in times of great need.
