Cloughie left out of football manager compilation
FOREST legend Brian Clough has been left out of a limited edition collage of managers who have shaped English football.
Forty-five managers have been included in the commemorative print, commissioned by the League Managers Association.

Brian Clough
But double European Cup winner Cloughie is not included in the work, entitled
Football management: Past, Present and Future
.
A total of 200 copies have been made and 50 have been signed by England manager Fabio Capello. It is hoped they will raise thousands of pounds for charity in raffles and auctions.
LMA chief executive Richard Bevan said: "People should not read anything into who is or who is not included. It is not meant to be a definitive collection of the best or most popular or famous managers."
However, a second in a series of five LMA prints is set to feature an individual image of Cloughie, who won the European Cup with Forest in 1979 and 1980.
