Oh Louie louie Posted November 19, 2023 Report Share Posted November 19, 2023 Mine would be Brian parkin, all-day long, in the words of Brian Clough a clown. He thought he was playing centre half, acculmating in a sending off, and a goal from the free kick, now that did make me smile, anyone else? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We purchased players through a mail order catalogue. When we realised they weren't up to scratch, we used the catalogue's returns procedure to get the transfer fee refunded. Think that's a fair summary! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Geoff Posted November 19, 2023 Report Share Posted November 19, 2023 OK, I bit and googled Brian Parkin and Nottingham Forest. Took a while but it appears that Parkin was a Goalkeeper who played for many clubs including the Gas. According to worldfootball.net he only played twice against Forest, whilst at Wycombe. I can find no reference to him being referred to as a clown or being sent off. I'm as confused as everyone else.....oh well back to the catalogues.

weepywall Posted November 19, 2023 Report Share Posted November 19, 2023 Wasn't it a Polish or Hungarian goalkeeper that Clough called a clown who then played a blinder against England to stop us qualifying for the World Cup in 1974 I think.
