bcnram Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Im in at Lancaster University, so what Derby away games are nearby? It doesn't bode well for you if you can't open up a map on the internet and see what is reasonably close to Lancaster. Well done on getting there but I think you are going to have to sharpen up a bit to make a go of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaddesdenRam Posted August 15, 2013 Author Share Posted August 15, 2013 So you've got to uni but aren't able to read a map of England. Easy exams, in my day, etc etc Definitely didn't do Geography as one of my A levels either There are quite a few actually Wigan, Burnley, Bolton, Blackpool, Blackburn then potentially Leeds and Huddersfield.

See, you can do it when you try. Typical youth of today, blah blah Your nearest league ground is Morecambe if you fancy a neutral game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duracell Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Im in at Lancaster University, so what Derby away games are nearby? Well done on getting into Uni! It's always a good idea to do some wider reading before you start your course. Or maybe just stare at a map for a week.... What did you get?

Duracell Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Can I just say, I do not envy any of you one bit today. I was in France this time last year and I think it was the most nervous I've ever been, and if I had cocked it all up I had to spent the rest of the week with my family in confined spaces. And having done my first year of uni....it's absolute ******** to say A-Levels are easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

notts_ram Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Congratulations. The only benefit I got out of my degree was peeing the governments grant money up the wall for 3 years which peeps like you now have to subsidise yourself. Hope you have a job as a doctor or lawyer lined up or you'll be paying off your tuition fees until you croak it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrsRam Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Can I just have a little brag? - my daughter got a B in law and English and an A* in psychology. She's having a year out, working and trying to save extra beer money and has been accepted on a 4 year primary education degree at Snottingham Trent next year. She's worked so hard for it, I'm so pleased for her. Proud mum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uttoxram75 Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 So you've got to uni but aren't able to read a map of England. Easy exams, in my day, etc etc Made me laugh there sage. Purely thanks to football I have a reasonable knowledge of the geography of England. When i was a kid i studied an old AA book of me dad's with maps of all the towns & cities in just to spot the football grounds (they were all named on the maps). When i first started to go away games in me mates dads' car i'd tell him stuff like "Burnley's ground is a mile east of the town centre". (weren't much use if we were going Blackburn though ) I was like an early version of the sat nav! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sage Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 When I was six I could name all 92 league grounds. Those were the days of the same 92 year in year out I could mark where every club are now on a map. I find it weird when people don't know where placds are..
