Clough Stories - Neil Webb
Episode 107
Thursday, 23 April, 2026

"He's absolutely teeming with talent. I'm just trying to teach him to tackle like Archie Gemmill now." Brian Clough was full of praise for his young midfielder Neil Webb back in the 1980s. In this fascinating conversation with pod host Marcus Alton, the former England international shares special memories of playing for the Miracle Manager.The stories include signing a blank contract ('Seriously, you want me to sign it and then I'm yours, regardless of what's on it?'), being dropped from the first team after volunteering to go in goal ('Working with the gaffer, I learned not to volunteer for anything') and Cloughie's last-ditch effort to keep the star midfielder when Man Utd came calling ('I was shocked to see him at the tribunal which set the transfer fee').
