Just seen this article in the mirror, very interesting , your comments please
http://www.mirrorfootball.co.uk/news/Derby-boss-Nigel-Clough-cannot-be-new-Nottingham-Forest-manager-because-of-red-tape-article810223.html
The main points of the article are:
Nigel Clough's move back to Nottingham Forest is off – because he does not have the proper coaching badges.
Under new regulations brought in last summer, Championship clubs can only appoint bosses with A or Pro licences.
Clough has not enrolled on any further courses and is now effectively stuck at Derby, where his contract runs out in the summer. He is allowed to carry on there with just a B badge.
There is a drive to make all bosses in the higher divisions fully qualified because of complaints from coaches who have forked out for courses and then been overlooked.
The rule will have been a shock to Clough, who faces an uncertain future until he gets the extra qualifications.

Mos,
So what the Mirror wrote is basically a load of old balls in a hairy sack?

Tried and tested strategy - state a spurious "fact", then argue a supplementary point as though the original one is generally accepted. Very sad that the Mirror has moved down-gutter of the Sun etc.
