    You been refreshing this page constantly or something?

    You wrote "do you think that an unexpected large increase in the pass rate does not have consequences for the intake into tertiary education? "

    It's a nothing statement, vaccous without any actual content, asking me to comment on an undefined consequence, it;s not an argument. You spent an hour asking dumbfuck questions about medical students with zero points being made. When i tire of your nonsense you then come out all Aaid hominem

    Away back to defending Rangers you ultracrepidarian.

     

     

    The best slap I've ever seen on the TAMB. Outstanding, Mr Phart. "Aaid hominem". Genius. 😂

    Hatred? No. Bigot? No. There is nothing in my post that suggests I am a bigot.. Funny how other posters can have a right go at your football club, but I am on the receiving end of some rather unfortunate comments from you. Not on here to argue, just pointing out the obvious. As far as my reasoning for point deduction, it's called banter. In all honesty though, it's an absolute fu king disgrace what your football club has done.. Just my opinion..

    Wanna talk about what each of our football clubs have done, you fucking wank? 
     

    Honestly, just fucking shut up for once. You've no clue about Scottish football. You're just a weirdo who clings to a successful team from thousands of miles away to try to cling to the homeland you don't care enough about to live in. 

    You contribute nothing to Scottish football yet act like you own it.

    They didn't just make the results up though, did they?

    The starting point was teacher's assessments. 75% of those were accepted unmoderated.  Where there was a disparity between those assessments and previous data they required to be moderated.

    suggesting they were made up or guessed at is a total misrepresentation. 

    "Disparity between those and previous data"

    You mean "he's at a shit school, Mark him down".

    I think these exams are usually marked by people who don't know the students personally, but yeah, robust evidence, such as prelim results, results of testing throughout the year etc.

    Yeah. Exams are marked by people they don't know. This year people they don't know just made the results up. 

    Bit of a difference. Robust evidence required to changed a guesses grade 😂

    Credit where credit is due. McInnes recent statement is spot on, fair play to the man. 

    It was utterly pathetic IMO. The players are "sorry" and "made an error of judgement". Fuck off mcinnes. 

    Theyre a fucking disgrace and will be heavily punished was the right statement. Might've helped instill a modicum of discipline in the shitshow you call a dressing room.

    I would take any pictures seen with a pinch of salt. I was sent one of McKenna clearly having a pint (from Saturday) 🙄, where his hair was about 4 inches longer that it was on tv and Arsenal wereplaying Man City on the tv behind them. Another had one with live darts in the background, to my knowledge, there were no live darts on Saturday afternoon (but am happy to be corrected)

    I'm talking about the ones from outside soul.

    Tell us you took the cash?

    Sure did. Cash out as soon as I saw news it was called off. £66 for fuck all 🙂

    Is there any proof they were boozing?

    Perhaps out for something to eat?

    Not saying that was even right in the circumstances but is there any proof they were out partying?

    I don't care about them having a few pints tbh. Going to Soul (which we've all seen pictures of the busyness of) in a group of 8, against protocols, is unacceptable.

    Time for a shake up in the club in my opinion. Mcinnes has gone stale and this type of culture needs to end.

    Agree totally. They either have zero respect for him and done this on his watch, or he's sanctioned it. 

    Either way it completely smacks of the total malaise that's characterised most of our performances over the last year or more. 

    On the plus side, I managed to get £100 on st johnstone at 2.87 and can already cash out for £166 if I want 😂

    Exactly. It's a flawed, imperfect system but these are imperfect times. Everything is in a state of flux at the moment.

    I thought that "rounding up" the grades might have been kinder; that is, erring more in the students favour if at all possible. But then that devalues the whole grading system. If a school goes from, say, a 50% pass rate to a 70% pass rate in one year, that's just improbable,  especially as it more than likely will drop back to 50% once exams start again! There is, of course, a wider issue there about why the attainment gap isn't being closed.

    I feel bad for any kid who's lost out because of this (I'd be raging if I was in their shoes) but the appeals process, while not flawless, is still there. If they've robust evidence that they should have received a higher grade than they were awarded, then it should be a relatively straightforward appeal to overturn.

    "Do you have robust Evidence that you'd have got a better grade than the one someone who's never met you guessed?"

    Gifted pupils at bad schools got fucked and marked down, while mediocre students at good schools got to keep their grades. It's a policy straight out of the Tory playbook. What school you go to shouldn't affect the result by a difference of 2.5.

    Downgrading individually historical A students to C students (2 bands) cause of the historical results of their schools to fit an anachronistic bell curve model who shouldn't have happened.

    Anyone defending the outcome when it is so patently unfair and discriminatory cause of who is defending it or is responsible for defending it is part of the larger Political problem, like Alan they'll defend their party and decry the other parties no matter the problem. Rank partisanship is the major problem in politics with folk wiling to eat shite depending on who's arse it came out of.

    Spot on, phart. This has been a fucking shocking way to handle this. 

    Ordinary, hard-working kids who go to schools with a large proportion of deprived catchment areas are being absolutely fucked over.

    Two questions for the TAMB historians if I may ?

    1) On Ye Olde TAMB when this place was once tightly moderated, how long would it have taken for this thread to be locked ?

    2) How many posters would have got banned ?

    Thank you.

    @ReekySporran was a right humourless bastard and would've reported it within minutes of the first post he didn't like. Doubt there'd be bannings. Just posts deleted and told to keep on topic.

    Tbh am starting to feel a bit sorry for you pal youve been out there for so long youve lost the ability to see the wind up or engage in banter of the sarcastic sort i hear the sense of humour is different over there so that may well be the case

    Seems to be the case. Seems Incapable of having a laugh.

    Celtic are still top of the league folks. 10 in a row.. Yasssssssssss!!!! 

    Yeah. No need to keep checking. The league table won't change until more games are played. That's fairly basic stuff. 
     

    I know "soccer" isn't all that popular in the USA but you Americans don't have embarrass yourselves sometimes when you're discussing it. 

    Feel free to PM me any queries on the game, if you want. Like the offside rule, what's the difference between a corner and a throw, or even how come the ref also seems to be on Celtic's team.
