The Antipodean challenge

What bullshit, if you come first in the country for another sport or academically that has stuff all to do with having pride in the school and everything to do with pride in oneself.

If that kid attended a govt school and came first in a national 100m sprint that would have nothing to do with the school as sport is practically non existent in govt school......that achievement would be down to the athletics club that kid attended.

As I said you are speaking utter crap, clearly knowing nothing about the subject.

The majority of the kids in this country don't really give a toss about their schools.....its a gathering of mates and when the home time bell rings.....they are out the door.

Team sports build pride in ones school.......you were clearly a loner who played no sport at school.

You cant break a 50 year old athletics record when you don't actually have any form of athletics at school. 

Boasting has stuff all to do with it you ignorant twat......the debate was whether govt schools played rugby at a respectable level or not - I know for a FACT they don't.

I sent my kids to private school after my little man was sent with his year 6 class to the local secondary school for a taster day and they were locked in the tennis courts at break time for their own safety and had a police officer on site as standard practice.

What bull[removed], if you come first in the country for another sport or academically that has stuff all to do with having pride in the school and everything to do with pride in oneself. Yet earlier you posted "Imagine going to school and not playing sport......no pride in their schools at all" you said that, not me, care to rephrase that. And explain this..."Pride in ones school is the product of representing that school on the sports field, or on stage etc".  And if they are not on a sports field or on a stage?

If that kid attended a govt school and came first in a national 100m sprint that would have nothing to do with the school as sport is practically non existent in govt school......that achievement would be down to the athletics club that kid attended.  B...l..l..s..h..i..t, and you know it, it starts at school first, then they get identified, scouted etc etc to an athletics club / school for further development, unless you are categorically stating here that all top sportspeople to ever represent England were developed and groomed at a top level school from their first day starting school.  Don't talk s..h..i..t Dave. 

As I said you are speaking utter crap, clearly knowing nothing about the subject.  You are getting yourself into a corner here Dave

The majority of the kids in this country don't really give a toss about their schools.....its a gathering of mates and when the home time bell rings.....they are out the door.  As I said, don't paint everyone with the same brush, just because of a few bad ones, but you always do, and in this case when you do, you make them sound like they are beneath you, which is ugly to see in writing.

"Team sports build pride in ones school".......you were clearly a loner who played no sport at school.  So with your fantastic theory here, a long distance runner, chess player, pole vaulter, high jumper, sprinter, javelin thrower, weight lifter, hammer thrower etc etc should have no pride in his school because it's a singular event, not a team event as you specifically mention above here like cricket and rugby? LMAO... ok Dave

You cant break a 50 year old athletics record when you don't actually have any form of athletics at school. I said breaking a 50 year old school athletics record to be proud of you idiot, and are you telling me there are no athletics at schools?... 

Boasting has stuff all to do with it you ignorant twat......the debate was whether govt schools played rugby at a respectable level or not - I know for a FACT they don't.  I never mentioned rugby, you did, I am covering other sports that kids could take a lot pride in, since you say there is no pride at all, only maybe in your elite private sector or if it's a team event

Lol, ok Dave

I sent my kids to private school after my little man was sent with his year 6 class to the local secondary school for a taster day and they were locked in the tennis courts at break time for their own safety and had a police officer on site as standard practice.

Not sure what you mean here, what was the danger

Are you stupid? No need to rephrase anything.......one reinforces the other. Sport = pride in the school.

I take it you don't live in England do you......that's plain to see given your ignorant assertion under 2. No kids do not take part in athletics at govt schools so no that is not where they start and its not where they get scouted to join athletics clubs......what utter ignorance......as I said you clearly do not live in England so stop insulting us with your presumptions.....its pathetic.

No dumbass.....the singular sportsman or musician is not representing his school, so cannot possibly assign pride to that school......what part of govt schools in the UK not taking sport seriously are you struggling to comprehend......what part of this is not sinking in huh? The high jumper will be competing in the name of a club not the school.

No there is no athletics at govt schools you idiot so no 50 year record can be broken.....there might have been athletics in that school some 20 years ago.

Answer this - where do you live?

No you thick shit I know exactly what I have said......its clear for all to see......but given how utterly stupid you are, I'll summarise......to start with I asserted that rugby is not played at a respectable level in govt schools, followed by my assertion that the same applied to all sports in general be it individual or team.

Thereafter I pointed out that team sport instil pride in ones school, to which you countered with individual sports only for me to point out that individual sports are not played at govt schools either......something you would know if you actually lived in the UK

But your arrogance knows know boundaries for you feel equipped to pass comment on something you know nothing about nor have first hand experience of.

Your are just an arrogant prick making his name mud in the process.....but don't let me stop you, keep digging.

I'll say it one more time, the vast majority of the govt schools in this country are crap.....no pride, no discipline, no boundaries.......and NO SPORT

I'll say it one more time, the vast majority of the govt schools in this country are crap.....no pride, no discipline, no boundaries.......and NO SPORT

DA I would expect nothing less form you concluding the above, for that is how profoundly stupid you are.

The only point I really wanted to make was that sport is virtually non existent in govt schools in the UK, and the little that is played is of a pathetic standard.

Beenkop, the state of sport and the govt schools in general in the UK has stuff all to do with immigrants - what an ignorant comment

DA you are spot on here - that is exactly what I am saying with regards to private schools being far, far better than govt schools here, which in general are a disgrace.

There was no way in hell I was putting my kids through the shambles of a state education system they have in place here.

I am anything but elitist, just doing the best for my kids and thereby ensuring that they are best equipped for life's journey.

In effect in order for my kids to experience the kind of schooling (govt) I had, I needed to send them to a private school here in the UK.

My boys are absolute gems and I have their school partly to thank for that.

By the way I don't give a flying toss what you think

"The govt schools here are pretty crap in general......no sport and ill disciplined kids."

"The govt schools here are pretty crap in general......no sport and ill disciplined kids."

Sorry Dave, I missed the part here where you say only "some" government schools have ill disciplined kids.  Please...... show me where you say it is only some government schools, and not ALL

This should be fun 

Where did I say that every kid that went to a govt school was ill disciplined, uneducated and had no chance in life?

Geez DA, kindly provide the evidence where I said that ALL govt school kids are ill disciplined you stupid fool......provide the material evidence....failing which shut your ignorant trap up. 

Yes I said nothing about govt school kids being uneducated you liar......but more to the point lying twat, where did I say that ALL govt school kids are ill disciplined.

Here is a little legal lesson for you, given your profound ignorance on the subject......if you are claiming I said that ALL govt school kids are ill disciplined then it is your duty to prove beyond reasonable doubt that I said as much......no inferences, no presumptions ......just material evidence that I said ALL govt school kids are ill disciplined - good luck little man.

Here is some advice for you, ignorant twat.....stick to topics you know something about......which by all accounts is fuck all......there is nothing more stupid than a clown thinking he is an authority on a subject and then gets exposed for such ignorance and blatant arrogance.

You are small fry

The only LIAR here is you, you idiot, but you are too fucking stupid to even realise that.

pay for my kids education as there was no way I was putting my boys through the sad excuse for schools in this country

That statement has nothing to do with govt school kids being uneducated or the standard of education.....I was talking about govt schools as a whole package, more down to the fact that the kids play no sport and the ill discipline in the schools - my reaction to not wanting to put my boys through govt schools was on the strength of my kids taster day at one, where the level of education never came into the equation.

"Not a patch on the govt schools back home.......one thing England falls well short on is its education 

That is a comparison between SA and UK schools as a whole - the complete education package and I include the private schools here. The old traditional govt schools in SA are better than the majority of private schools here.

So why not man up and apologise for your utter ignorance and arrogance.....but chances are you are too fucking small to admit you have been owned and by the way, h ow about providing the evidence that I said ALL govt school kids are ill disciplined you fucking low life.

Game set and match......you are such easy pickings, up your game, pathetic LIAR

The only LIAR here is you, you idiot, but you are too [removed]ing stupid to even realise that.

pay for my kids education as there was no way I was putting my boys through the sad excuse for schools in this country

That statement has nothing to do with govt school kids being uneducated or the standard of education.....I was talking about govt schools as a whole package, more down to the fact that the kids play no sport and the ill discipline in the schools - my reaction to not wanting to put my boys through govt schools was on the strength of my kids taster day at one, where the level of education never came into the equation.

Ok Davey, let me better understand you here. You were very concerned and unhappy about the no sport and ill disciplined kids at government schools, so as long as your kids could play sport and have friends and fellow students who behaved, it didn't matter how bad the academic levels were at that private school, as long as they played sports and had students who behaved, because, in your own words, the level of education your kids would receive never came into the equation?

"Not a patch on the govt schools back home.......one thing England falls well short on is its education 

That is a comparison between SA and UK schools as a whole - the complete education package and I include the private schools here. The old traditional govt schools in SA are better than the majority of private schools here.

Ok I see, so you make a reference to the government schools back home as a comparative, not the private schools back home, just specifically the government ones, but then make no reference or remark about including the UK private schools in this statement or comparison.  You only now "include" the private schools in that comparison because you have been called out on it and you see that you have been found out to be an egotistical moron who brags about private schools and private education, and how UK government schools have no pride at all, only the esteemed private schools do.  Only now are you saying that you actually also included the private schools in that statement, even though there is no proof, but you actually meant to ..... very convenient you mention that now to save face.

So why not man up and apologise for your utter ignorance and arrogance.....but chances are you are too [removed]ing small to admit you have been owned and by the way, how about providing the evidence that I said ALL govt school kids are ill disciplined you [removed]ing low life.

I provided that already, and even challenged you for your response which you have yet to do.  Are you blind as well as dumb?

Game set and match......you are such easy pickings, up your game, pathetic LIAR

I have seen that a few people who know you quite well have questioned you in the past regarding their hesitation about your ability to perform your duties in your chosen profession..... now I know why
