Long before the days of Fantasy Football, Brian Clough’s Football Fortunes was a groundbreaking game which allowed its players to manage their favourite clubs.

In this episode of the Green Jumper, you’ll hear the story behind the game and how Cloughie himself became involved.

It was the 1980’s and Marty Neil was a youngster in Belfast who loved the hybrid game, which unusually mixed a table-top competition with computer technology.

Decades later, Marty has given the game a re-boot and tells the full story behind Brian Clough’s Football Fortunes and what the Great Man thought about the idea.

Podcast host Marcus Alton also catches-up with Cloughie’s friend Colin Shields who was one of the few people, besides the players, who Brian allowed to travel on the team coach.
