  2. Atila Reincarnate Wrote: Surprise, surprise fergie didn't speak to the BBC after the game. That comment would imply that his decision not to speak was based on events in the game which didn't go his way. Its no "surprise surprise" to anyone as he vowed never to speak to the Match Of The Day Boyz again, many moons ago, so I have to say (to quote someone here) that connection is "total ballacks":))
  3. Went to an old-fashioned Grammar School in the heart of baddest South London, which had a 300 year Academic History to be proud of. Working Class Boys from South London had good some superb Grammar Schools to try to obtain entry to: Addey and Stanhope, Askes, Wilsons of Camberwell (who left for Sutton ), Archbishop Tenisons, Colfes and of course there was also Schools like Dulwich College and Alleyns to dream of getting into, which my cleverest friends did. It was very strict, literally "old-skool" Teaching methods and the Boys respected that (apart from "Jethro" Knight):)). Some Teachers wore Black Capes and the empthasis was on learning, discipline, good manners and respect. Funnily enough most Pupils who left received a good education, had discipline, displayed good manners and treated others with respect. Obviously this nonsense had to stop:)) The cane was used freely by some, including weekly "dustin" tests where, as an 11/12 year old, we received a stroke of the cane for every half mark under 10/20 (!) that we got in the Geography Test. (funnily enough most Pupils developed a real keenness and eagerness to learn Geography and most passed the "O" Level with some ease). Standards were high and the behaviour of "nearly" all Pupils was excellent, I would say. Then it lost its "Grammar" Status. The brighter kids from all parts of South London (deemed at "11" with all that implies) exited staged left. The local yoof entered stage right and within 10 years this (once) proud School became a Government "Sink" School, though, thankfully, its now, finally, lost that unenviable tag. Progress, innit...(Music is much better there now though...):)
