Marco Silva Sacked

I am with you there, my son.

 

If you told me your real name was Tom Young I would now understand more about you.

 

She was my form teacher for a while - fit as fark indeed

 

What about Miss Fink the English teacher.

Anyone have any recollections of her?

 

Nope sorry, never heard of him. I was there 73 to 78.

You must have been a year or so ahead of me, no?

 

'Competed'? Not really. But I am talking about the sixties here, which, unless I am misremembering a former post, you won't remember at all.

 

11 years actually - sorry. No- just he too rejected MT - but his father was a card carrying member of the CPGB and he too had very clear strong left wing views. A great guy and a good chess player.

 

In the sixties we only played rugby, hockey and cricket too. Football was confined to playground kickabouts.

 

No girls, no football? Badminton, basketball, volleyball?

 

She was my English teacher in the first year. She was dusky, thin and had a slightly haunted look. I have a feeling she may have left circa 1979. After that Mr Green was my English teacher. He had full-on ****ensian sideburns, or am I just making that part up?

 

Trying to remember the houses. Cassio, Fuller, New I can remember but IIRC there were also B and T?

 

And P, which was Platt.

 

F being clearly the best.
B were a bunch of animals. "4B farm"

 

I'm pretty sure B was Bushey and T was Turner. Apparently they've added another form.

 

Neil Hart was bizarrely overlooked for the headmaster job, he was acting head for my upper sixth year after the Mel Smith lookalike left after two years post Trog.

My oldest son is in the first year there now, there are still 4 teachers from my time there, Mr Thorold, Mr Panter, Mr Hussey and Mr Evans (who was my form master in the sixth form).

 

There are 7 now, there were 6 in my days. Bushey, Cassiobury, Fuller, Groves, New, Platt & Turner. My son is in Groves which was added after my time, an eighth house will be introduced in September this year.

 

I was in B, Bushey, when I started and then was a founder member of P, Platt when they formed that in around the 3rd year.

Since the new P form appeared to contain almost all of the school's villains and ne-er do wells, we used to say that the P really stood for "Punishment".

 

Topsfield taught me German - he casually let slip that he had interrogated German POWs during the war.

 

T was Travellers the house I was in = Ricky based people.
Did they rename it Turner ? B*strds - I loathed that man

 

Can somebody start a schools thread?
Just wondering what this has to do with the snake, except that he needs educating of course.

 

I think it's fitting that he should be ignored in his own thread.

 

Haven't you noticed how undisciplined we are becoming? The West Ham thread has turned into a films thread

 

Silva is favourite to take over as caretaker at Chelsea if they sack Conte according to The Times...

 

Classic!

 

He must spend all his money on PR, I really can't understand why everyone rates him so highly

 

Attacking coach follows defensive coach. It’s the usual pendulum swing.

 

Silva to replace conte if Chelsea give him the boot before seasons end

wut!?!?

They are kidding right?

 

GEG. Carathumpia. Yep. We need a new thread.

 

I love a decent thread hijacking, but this WBGS jizz fest is a bit too much

I recall in the late 70's (maybe early 80's) I used to sneak into the outdoor pool late at night with a student nurse from Shrodells, and go skinny dipping

If you pompous boys school chinless wonder had known there had been a naked girl in your pool, you and your equally virginious (good word huh?) teachers, would have probably passed out with excitement

All the best from a proper school, St.Micks in Garston X

 

It's not even a word at all.

(And no, I did not go to Watford Boys )

 

Is Garston X on Earth X?

St Micks?! Pah!!!

 

Parmiters run the St Micks Scum.

 

You bunch of pretty boys? You couldn't run for a bus (assuming people catch buses anymore)
