This extended episode includes memories of Brian Clough as a centre-forward at Sunderland. There's also a chat with former Cloughie player Alan Hinton who recalls a special reunion. You'll also hear from the Ray Mundo Futbol podcast, following an interview with Green Jumper host Marcus Alton.
Our thanks go to the Roker Report for introducing us to Jim Wales who remembers watching Cloughie at Sunderland. He was 15 when he went to Roker Park on his own for the first time - and he saw Brian score a hat-trick!
Cloughie made his debut for Sunderland in August 1961 (joining from Middlesbrough) and scored 63 goals in 74 appearances (league and cup) for the club. He suffered a devastating knee injury against Bury on Boxing Day 1962.
