Revealing mistake: In the scene where Brian Clough is at home you can see double glazed upvc windows, even though they were not around until the 1990s.

Starring: Colm Meaney, Henry Goodman, David Roper, Jimmy Reddington
Factual error: Towards the end of the film when Brian Clough goes to see Peter Taylor at his house in Brighton, there is a 'Pay & Display' ticket machine visible in the car park in the background. The film-makers have done a good job at placing period vehicles in shot but seem to have forgotten the shiny black new (solar powered?) ticket machine.
Journalist: How would you define your approach to management, apart from being brilliant?
Brian Clough: Good lad.
