This is a film about the famous Brain Clough and his rivalry with Reevie who takes over from Alf Ramsey as England manager when Alf is sacked. Reevie upsets Clough during a FA cup round match when Reevie snubs Clough. I am not sure if it was intentional or not, but Clough never forget and spends a few years working his way up the leagues with two teams (including Reevies old team), and trying to out do Reevie both on and off the pitch.
The film is set in the late 60’s early 70’s and the attention to detail is superb.
