Although It pains to me say it Revie won that battle but overall Cloughie won the war. His partnership with Taylor was massive and they used a simple formula to beat the current crop of teams. I lived in Nottingham for many years and saw Nottingham Forest destroy anyone that dared to visit the City Ground. John Robertson was just unplayable back then.. On the later years I met Clough in the local paper shop which was run by his brother. The European Cup proudly displayed next to the sweet counter. Asked if I could pick the cup up for a Emlyn Hughes moment. something I will never forget. Whatever you think about Brian Clough, a big headed, self centred and in top one for the England job which he never was offered.. He was always a winner............

We will never know for sure...Clough had time at Forest and he rebuilt the squad and the rest is history.

Clough needed Taylor like The Don needed Les ....
