Alchemy: Brian Clough & Peter Taylor at Hartlepools United
No full textThis book is not available through ChesterRep.Boxing Day 1962: Sunderland’s star striker Brian Clough suffers a career-ending knee injury when he collides with an outrushing goalkeeper. After a forlorn battle to regain fitness, he retires early and sinks into deep despair.
October 1965: Clough persuades ex-Middlesbrough teammate Peter Taylor to join him in managing perennial North-East strugglers Hartlepools United, lying next to bottom of the Fourth Division.
A magical football odyssey has begun.
Alchemy reveals the bittersweet reality of Brian Clough and Peter Taylor’s first management job together. Lower-league Hartlepools United are penniless, with a meddling chairman, a ramshackle ground and want-away players. Yet the management pair tackle every challenge head-on, forging a winning blueprint that later transforms unfashionable Derby County and Nottingham Forest into League and European Cup champions.
Exploiting a wealth of archive newspapers, plus interviews with those present at the creation, Alchemy exposes the humble origins of Clough & Taylor’s meteoric rise to the top of the football tree

Mental toughness: its relevance to teaching
No full textThis chapter discusses some of the challenges in the real world and how an understanding of mental toughness might help. Areas that relate to mental toughness include: dealing with stress; optimising and understanding the learning environment and dealing with change. Teaching is widely recognised as being one of the most stressful jobs. HSE research in 2000 found teaching to be the most stressful profession in the UK, with forty-one and a half per cent of teachers reporting themselves as "highly stressed". Bullying and being bullied are major issues in any educational environment. There are many excellent ideas and techniques to help maximise the learning experience. However many of these share a central problem—they fail to fully take into account individual difference. Change is ever present in education. Mentally tough individuals tend to crave change and can become easily bored with routine
