The Legacy
Brian Clough managed Nottingham Forest for the 1980-1981 season, aiming to defend their European status. Peter Shilton remained the reliable last line of defence, while Viv Anderson provided stability at the back. Trevor Francis and John Robertson led the attacking efforts for an Adidas-manufactured side that featured no front sponsor. These players competed across a demanding domestic campaign.
Key Moment
As reigning European Cup holders, Forest lost the 1980 European Super Cup to Valencia on away goals and finished 7th in the First Division.
