Description

In 1973, Brian Clough and Peter Taylor stunned the football world by taking charge of Brighton & Hove Albion, a sleepy backwater club that had rarely done anything in its 72-year existence to trouble the headline writers.

The move made no sense. Clough was managerial gold dust, having led Derby County to the Football League title and the semi-finals of the European Cup.

He and his sidekick Peter Taylor could have gone anywhere.

Instead they chose Brighton, sixth bottom of the old Third Division. Featuring never-before-told stories from the players who were there, Bloody Southerners lifts the lid for the first time on what remains the strangest managerial appointment in post-war English football, one that would push Clough and Taylor's friendship and close working relationship to breaking point.
