Sunderland boss Martin O'Neill has never reached the final of the world's oldest club competition as either a player or a manager despite a trophy-laden career.
"I don't know whether Mr Clough took it all that seriously or not at the time - of course he did, but you always felt that the league was the big thing.
"With Aston Villa, we reached the semi-final two years ago and were beaten by Chelsea. We had a couple of rather rough refereeing decisions, but doesn't everybody?
"But I have never reached the final, I have never been in it. It's the only competition, as a player, that Forest didn't win." "As a player, I never won it. We were in the quarter-finals three or four times with Nottingham Forest, one in particular in 1974 when we played at Newcastle and the crowd invaded the pitch.
