Review
What can be said about Big Norm's testimonial that can't be seen in the YouTube video? Wow. He managed to get the European Cup champions on the pitch, so we got to see John Robertson, Birtles, Gemmill, Clarke etc. all wearing the red shirt once more. Kenny Burns and Larry Lloyd still looked solid at the back, and Robbo put over some great crosses. But the real lump in the throat? The manager for the night was Brian Clough. He looked old, but carried the European Cup like he owned it. And he did. The old timers won 4-1, partly due to playing with 13 players! Des Walker scored for Crossley's team with an amazing lob over Chris Woods! Please, watch the video...
