I'm not going to claim I understand how the different levels of coaching badges work, because as most of you have guessed from this article's very existence, I've no idea whatsoever!
Having read a few people's comments on earlier articles, it got me thinking. Presumably to take the reins of a club at Championship level you have to be in possession of some "credentials". What credentials would these be? In order to take charge of a Premier League team, do you require the level above, and to manage in League One and League Two just the two respective lower-level qualifications?
When you say Cloughie is unqualified and out of his depth, surely he would not be given permission to manage DCFC without having the correct badges. Or is it the case that if members of the background staff possess the levels then that will suffice?
This is genuinely no dig at anyone and purely for my understanding, although I guess if people answer it'll show whether they actually have any idea or if they're just spouting ill-informed tommyrot and nonsensical amphigory!
UTR! Come on Nigel. In the words of Rob Schneider in a couple of Adam Sandler movies:
"You can DO EEET!!!"
How do coaching badges work exactly?

Cos he's forced too by the Poisoned Dwarf, he want his old job back and young Nige is in his way.
Apparently he has something over 666 with some video featuring Tommy Sheridan, Paul Jewell, a couple of Rumanian Gypsies. All filmed on Chaddesden sidings apparently.
And I'm not one for starting gossip.

Middle managers, eh?
Too incompetent to be left alone to do the real work, so they get promoted into a non-executive position where they can't spend money, can't influence policy and can't do any damage.

...which part of that cut'n'paste forms the question 'Why does he not have them?'

Oh, and I own a company: the 'middle manager' bit is yet another invention/distortion of facts by others

Your language is terrible when you're rattled
Just admit that you made a ridiculous statement and move on, simple!

I take back everything I say about middle management.
666 is such an effervescent character - I think he must own 'Bubbles', having 'worked' his way to the top..

So we are all agreed then that Nigel doesn't need a qualification to be our Manager.
He has earned that right.
He is a mid table Championship manager, FACT, who was more successful than Swen Goran Erikson (ex England) and Steve McClaren (Ex England) last season. oh, and reduced the budget at the same time.
