I'm not one to speak of the dead but it's a shame he didn't afford the 96 victims of the Hillsborough disaster the same decency or take into consideration, for one second, the feelings of the families of the 96 when he decided to live up to his reputation as this controversial genius.
Wrote it in his book and reiterated it in a TV interview.
Yes he apologised twelve years later, again in public, but he wouldn't have had to if he hadn't decided to go public with his uneducated sh*te in the first place. He apologised when it suited him - when sales of his book no longer mattered.
You've got to remember that this man was there on the day. For him to come out with the comments that he did, in the name of selling a book is unforgivable in my opinion.
He knew what he was doing when he went public with the original comments and then again when he apologised.
Didn't fool me.
A great manager but a f**king weirdo, punched his players, punched his fans, his son was a ladyboy and he gave a f**k about the 96 as much as I gave a f**k when he croaked it and if I had one moment of fame in my life I'd write my own book and stick this post in as my Prologue.
F**k Brian Clough.
Anyway, as I said, I'm not one to speak of the dead
but when writing this I kept thinking of this.
