heard a whisper that the coach is to be signing a new deal to stay with the club. anyone heard the same? surely this wouldnt be right.

Why not???

Surely this time he has got to have the experience needed to coach a team in the Championship.

[iAt first I thought you were talking about 'Ellisons' the coach firm that takes the Reds to the away games.[/i

why oh why, when it is very clear to all us fans that McRae hates the club and wants it to go bust and out of existence.

Do they have the same driver every week or does it change? some teams demand the same driver and see it as a lucky charm do we do that kind of thing?

If the driver does well, McRae requests a change, crap driver gets to stay.

[iIt would not suprise me one bit if Shaun McRae is still with Salford City Reds for the next three years.

But as we all know at The Willows 'COACHES COME AND COACHES GO' we've seen it all before my only hope is if Salford City Reds do decide to appoint a new head coach at some time the man is young and comes with no baggage or any past links with our club.

Any more whispers to get BigPev excited?

James not only would I be surprised I would offer you 33/1 (for a pound) and you cant have it each way as only one runner.

Ofsted tomorrow

Best of luck ... I hated them.

Thanks, another observation tomorrow after todays battle with a poisoned bigotted individual, who was supposed to be an expert and missed the basics in the student profile document. how much a day are they on?

HMIs are salaried, on about £60k p/a.

Additional Inspectors earn between £300 and £500 per day.

Back in the days I was at the chalkface, we were Ofstedded by a team of whom the person who had the most recent classroom experience stopped teaching 10 years before. Only two had actually experienced the National Curriculum and then only just! The Health and Safety man came to see me (I was H&S Rep) and was not aware of the European "Six-Pack".

this character has not actually "taught" on the chalkface for about 15 years but has been teaching at teacher training college and an "expert" in basic skills education "theory", she was not even aware that the programme I teach on is roll on roll off. But today she looked at the same class profiles i gave her yesterday and swore black was white they were different and todays had more information, well thats it for .........back to the penicillin to cure my infection.
