Interesting piece about possible reasons why The Greatest League In The World is failing in Europe.
"It helped that every Forest player in that ’79 final was British. It meant they could read Clough and, much of the time, intuit the inflections of his voice and mood."
Is it just a coincidence that the best Hibs teams have always been made up of local boys (sometimes guided by masters of the game from overseas like Sauzee and Latapy)?
