I left in 1993. I loved BPS up until about the 4th year. I always looked older than I was as I hit puberty at about 11 so was by the time I was 15 could easily pass for 18 and hung around with a lot of older people 3-5 year old than me and brought on OAS My Obsessive Aging syndrome kicked in around 15 and really affected my life in the last two years at school. Because I had older mates and looked older having OAS I thought I was older too so spent more time chasing girls and playing football than concentrating on my GCSEs. I blame it all on my OAS, I thought drinking and trying to shag birds at 15 was totally normal it’s only now I relaise it was a condition I had and the reason my GCSEs weren’t as good as they should have been. OAS is awful you’re 15 but think you’re 18, you want to do things 18 year olds you have a body of an 18 year old but can’t the law says you’re only 15. It’s not my fault I was afflicted with this condition there is nothing I could do. I think more needs to be done to raise awareness of OAS. Unless you suffer from it you've no idea how bad it is.

We dominated the game and missed about 5 good chances. Not winning wasn't anything to do with prioritising the league.

I had him for all 4 years. TBF he was an amazing teacher, he was also a very funny guy underneath the reputation. Once we got a bit older into the GCSE years he told us some funny stories, would also take the piss out of people for being off sick with sore throats and colds, saying they were soft and pampered, imagine if that happened these days! The control he had of the classroom though was incredible many of the same kids who were absolute knobs in other classes

Mr Crosby his name was. Famous for his sideburns and used to throw homework books at you with amazing accuracy to whereever you were sitting in the room. like all these things I have no doubt there are genuine cases. Much like depression, anxiety, autism and ADHD there are without doubt genuine cases but it’s another bandwagon for people to jump on. My kid doesn’t like being told what to do? Well it’s because he’s got PDA nothing to do with the fact they’ve never had any discipline whatsoever in their lives so When they do get told what to do they don’t know how to handle it

if he'd have it it low and straight at him he'd have scored.

Probably got a load of land near the stadium that Dragon wants to turn into the Maltese Alton Towers but thoughts he'd buy the club as well to smooth the path with the Maltese council

As @Colinjb a lot of it is boundaries. If the kids know what they can and can’t get away with and the consequences then most will behave. If they’ve never been set boundaries and know that if they play up they’re not even going to get into trouble they’re going to get reward then why behave? I think back to my school days and my maths teacher had a a reputation of being ridiculously strict, but guess what, no one played up in his class, it was like a military operation walk in in silence, stand until told to sit. Windows open whatever time of year as he believed cold made people pay attention more etc. our history teacher on the other hand was soft as shit and couldn’t control the class at all, same kids completely different behaviours. Sadly the days of discipline seem to be long gone, it’s now about sticking a label on them, justifying the behaviour with a condition and a shrugging of the shoulders by the parents “well what do you expect they’ve got ADHD/autism/anxiety”

Not thick, just arrogance and entitled. Apart from anything else these young girls should be at home training to be housewives not at a football match being racist to stewards

Having just read an article on it it sounds like it’s kids that don’t like being told off or told what to do. Makes sense as we don’t have a name for this “condition” yet, now we do.

I remember it well because the first time I saw him live was Hull away, we were abysmal during and after the game he was getting a lot of criticism but I thought he looked a really good player, trying to make things happen but was on another wave length to the attacking players on the pitch, Downes, Frazer and Fellows I believe so didn’t buy into the criticism he was getting.

Incorrect. This time last year Azaz was sub, he was sub for the October games v Bristol City, Derby and Swansea. Started v Preston then back on the bench for Tondas first Game in charge at QPR

Yep, 4 absolutely golden chances missed and a stonewall penalty not given. Take two or three of them and suddenly he’s a genius with 9 points and 3 clean sheets in a week. Today was disappointing but we should have won and 7 points out of 9 is a decent return.

He’ll come good, he’s got some quality just needs run of games. this time last year everyone was writing off Azaz

Hes saved a penalty from Ronaldo you know. That’s one of the reasons why our fans insisted he’s good enough for the premier league

Agreed. One of the darkest days in our history.
