He wasn't at the Albion for long but he started the ball rolling. Up till then we were a nothing club; when he arrived he made a difference and there was always something happening after that.
As for managing England I don't think so. The blazers would have never stood for it, and anyway his real skill was getting average players to perform above their normal level. He could motivate people to produce a standard of football they'd never played before or since.
RIP Cloughie, when they made you they broke the mould

Sadly gone .... in a strange way Brian was responsible for the Albion's greatest times, because without him we would never have had the Peter Taylor / Alan Mullery years.
RIP Brian

How very sad. One of the few true characters left in the game. He was always top entertainment, and his post-match interviews always made for compulsive viewing.
RIP Brian, you will be missed.

Very sad news. Cloughie lived long enough just to see his unbeaten record, in which he said that he was prouder of than his two European Cups with Nottingham Forest, get beaten by Arsenal recently. A true legend of the sport.
