L'histoire des 44 jours durant lesquels, en 1974, Brian Clough a été l'entraîneur de l'équipe championne du football anglais, Leeds United. Avec leur précédent manager, Don Revie, le rival de Clough, Leeds avait remporté ses plus grands succès en tant que club, mais représentait pour beaucoup un style de jeu agressif et cynique - ce qui, aux yeux de Brian Clough, un homme au style flamboyant mais ayant des principes, était tout à fait condamnable. Clough avait pour sa part connu d'énormes succès en tant qu'entraîneur de Hartlepool et de Derby County, construisant ses équipes selon sa propre vision avec l'appui de son fidèle lieutenant, Peter Taylor. Reprenant la tête de Leeds sans Taylor à ses côtés, avec face à lui des joueurs qui, dans son esprit, étaient encore " les petits gars de Don Revie ", il a montré durant 44 jours sa combativité et son exceptionnel savoir-faire. 44 jours pour une légende.
