Cloughie would give the road sign thieves hell...

UNHAPPY Kal Singh Dhindsa is leading calls for Derby County and Nottingham Forest to do the unthinkable and come together – by replacing Brian Clough road signs that have disappeared from the A52. The Rams supporter is upset that five of the 20 signs along the 15-mile stretch have been stolen since the road was renamed more than ten years ago. It is feared they have been taken as souvenirs of the man who served both East Midlands clubs. “Brian Clough Way is not the same since the signs were taken,” says Dhindsa, and he wants the fierce rivalry put to one side so Clough is rightly honoured. There are no council plans to replace the missing five signs and the County fanatic reckons the clubs should unite. He said: “Perhaps some generous benefactor may want to cover the costs. Maybe some of Cloughie’s former clubs will contribute.” “If he was here today, I think he would probably be giving someone a good telling off.”
