You Said "how anyone can rate a bloke who only has amateur Coaching status is puzzling ".
But he doesn't only have amateur coaching experience does he?
He's been "involved" with a professional academy team that has won nine of the last eleven championships and been assistant coach at 1st team level for a few years.

How can that be when he was not at the club during part of that period as he was for a spell, Coach at Sale Sharks?
And I have never seen anything about him being a Academy Coach or an official Assistant Coach like Winder was!
From What I have been told, he was only involved in the fitness side at the club and not the actual coaching of players.
There is a difference between Coaching and Training!
