red fever Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 When i watched this the other night I could not believe the ref was not wearing a Juventus shirt. Though Derby did not retain their title the following season, they did reach the semi-finals of the European Cup. They lost to Juventus in a controversial match which was subject to subsequent allegations that the Italian club had bribed the match officials, leading Clough, to call the Italians "cheating b*stards Derby County v Juventus, 1973: It is a scene immortalised in The Damned United: Brian Clough loudly informing the Italian press he would not speak to "cheating --------". Clough's first European adventure was mortally wounded by a 3-1 defeat in Italy after Archie Gemmill and Roy McFarland were booked – ruling them out of the return, which Derby won 1-0 – and Juventus substitute Helmut Haller accompanied referee Gerhard Schulenburg to his dressing room at half-time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perky1106 Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 Yes, we were cheated in that European match. Such ashame. Imagine if we'd gone and won that. Though even if we had won the Champions League, Longson still would have been a **** and tried to get rid of Clough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
