Brian Clough had a few classics too......

"He is a very balanced player, he has a chip on both shoulders"!!

"If someone disagrees with me i encourage them to tell me, we then sit down have a chat and then decide i was right all along"

On being repeatedly asked about speculation regarding his sons possible move to an overseas club,Clough said,
"Nigel is a very nice young man,and doesn't go anywhere without his Mums permission."

Ah Mr Clough, a never ending source of excellent sound bites. One of my favourites........

Don't understand how people think Clough could be a half-decent manager when he couldn't even read a balance sheet.

I re,member when Trevor Francis facing the press (not the media back then) but blokes with large microphones (Kenneth Wilstenholme stylee) and Box Brownie type size camera's - N'Forrest had just signed the first £1million player...this was before transfer windows and a reporter asked him

"So Trevor when will you play?"

and Cloughie in the background pipes up with

"When I Pick Im"

George Best

I spent a lot of money on booze, birds and fast cars. The rest I just squandered

I've gone missing a lot. Miss Canada, Miss United Kingdom, Miss World

In 1969 I gave up women and alcohol - it was the worst 20 minutes of my life.

If I had to choose between dribbling past 5 players and scoring from 40 yards at Anfield or shagging Miss World, it'd be a hard choice. Thankfully, I've done both.

If I had been born ugly,you never would have heard of Pele
