I quite clearly stated Cat D prisons.

And No, I don't believe 85% are functionally illiterate.

46% on the pages I looked at which seems about right.

It can be quite cute when a dim five year old does it, but when it is a grown up, it's hard to take them seriously.

Wannabe football managers (black or white) for example should take note.

Having lost track a bit I assume we are still on the" th "sounds!
If so it is not only wannabe football managers, it is wanna be T V stars , comedians etc, which is even worse than your Football managers.
I cant name them but I have heard on the radio people that assume they are well educated doing the same thing, rather pathetic trying to prolong their childhood.

Good luck with that.

Maybe you could put one up yourself one day. But I doubt that will ever happen.

No, it's different with football managers. They will be responsible for many tens of millions of pounds of assets etc. If they sound like div kids in the bottom sets of sink schools, they are not going to be hired with any sense of confidence in them.
