Like father like son at Derby County

2:56 pm on 7 January 2009

The former England international Nigel Clough has emulated his legendary late father Brian in becoming manager of Derby County.

The 42-year-old, who played for his father at Nottingham Forest, left Burton Albion after a 10-year spell there to take over the Championship strugglers.

Clough says this is a fantastic opportunity for him and one he'll relish.

He says the club has always had a special place in his and his family's heart.
