 * Broadbent, Rick (10 January 2009). "How big screen brought Brian Clough back to life in new film, The Damned United", The Times, Times Newspapers.

Taylor paragraph

 * It can be debated that Majorca was used as it is the location which in Peter Taylor died suddenly in 1990, - The source needs to say that the location was used because that's where Taylor died.


 * having never made amends with Clough over the transfer of player John Robertson in 1983 from Nottingham Forest to Derby, an argument that was said to have damaged their friendship and working relationship permanently. - This is fine, it's sourced.


 * The final shot of the argument in which Taylor walks away from Clough as he screams could be seen as symbolic to this. - Needs a source. Otherwise it's original research/POV.  Geoff B (talk) 16:53, 10 May 2010 (UTC)

Factual inaccuracies
Most of the inaccuracies noted are extraordinarily petty - players were signed at different times from how the movie shows it? Really? That's worthy of mention? Mackay had left Derby by the time Clough was sacked? Has there ever been a film made based on real events that didn't have errors like that? john k (talk) 16:12, 5 March 2011 (UTC)

Timeline is confusing, both in the movie, and in this article.
I'm from the USA, and may have missed a date or two in the first part of the film, but I'm 35 minutes into it and very confused.

It seems that this grudge between the two managers started after the beginning of the film, but they seem to already be at odds. I'll try to update the article if I can after I finish the film, but I'm not sure it will get any clearer for me 98.125.225.53 (talk) 05:01, 31 May 2011 (UTC)
