[Football] Kane to Bayern Munich?

[Live by the sea]

Most people my age seem to move abroad for love, work or both. We simply wanted to live abroad and have a change of lifestyle, and Berlin was the choice, see post #52. As I said in this post, we actually lived off Church Rd before moving here.

Well as long as you’re both happy that’s the most important thing.

Couldn't do German even if you wanted to when I was at Tideway.
That story sounds very Tideway though.
All that's missing is somebody falling over after drinking half a bottle of rum at 10am.

Did they issue detention cards when you were?

All some kids took to Tideway each day was a folded up one of those, and a pen resting on the ear. Never a book in sight.

Sounds Surprising any of the kids undertook professional careers !

It was a sink or swim state comp, 360 kids in each year. Sone kids became successful as adults, in spite of the system.

A select few such as @Herr Tubthumper went on to have stellar business careers.

Yes! And conversely 'merits' as well. If you did well at something you got a blue slip which was a 'merit'; if you collected enough you got a certificate.

I think I vaguely remember detention cards being mentioned, but I think that was before I was there (in the 2000s for me, my older siblings went there as well).
My main issue was the rain blowing in through the hole in the floor of the portercabins we had after it burnt down, and going up the ankle of my trousers.

How much of the uniform was orange when you were there?
It was the PE shorts and a stripe across the PE top when I was there, but I'm sure I've seen photos from the 60s when the actual uniform had an orange jumper.

All this talk of Tideway takes me back to the early 90's.

Mr Saxby was the head I believe.

If the olympic pool is still there he can practice his diving skills.

A few days here and he'll have every angle nailed

Late 70’s/early 80’s. Orange jumpers first year only by then. Casual clothing every other year, the head Mr Rothwell had survived being a Japanese prisoner of war, so was a natural libertarian. We also lucked out with a 2:15 finish when every other senior school in the country was an hour or two later, to do with buses availability in the morning …. bringing a thousand plus kids from east Saltdean, Telsccombe Cliffs, Peacehaven and Denton. Giving very long afternoons of leisure with mates.

Yep, a very windy location. Cross country in horizontal hail past Mr Davies’s home on the Heights, fights and snowball fights on the vast school field above Gibbon Road with snorkel-parkers turned into spinnakers.

All the original blocks were used, A to G plus the 6th form, almost 2,000 kids.

I don't blame him, he might win the League Cup, if lucky, with Spuds but nothing else as serial underachievers and basket case when it comes to appointing managers.

Bayern, probably every season League Champions and every season Champions League

He was indeed, along with a few other dodgy teachers. like the science teacher having an affair whilst his wife also worked at the school, only person that didn't seem to know was her!

What was his surname?

Henderson?

Edit: He was PE. I'm intrigued now.

We had detention cards and merits at nearby Seaford Head. That takes me back..

Kane to Bayern Munich?

 

[dwayne]

Please go

 

[BBassic]

It'd be lovely to not have to watch him getting away with backing into players anymore.

Just lovely.

 

[The Fits]

I just can't see it. I really don't think Bayern is that attractive to a lot of footballers. He wanted Real you'd think, but that is never happening.

 

[Bakero]

He's gone. Done deal.
