Archive chat from 2007: Dulwich Hamlet FC. Anyone fancy going on Saturday ? (Aug 2007)

[Termite Man]

Since the thread in football about watching a game in a pub isn't going well does anyone fancy seeing the new season in with a proper game instead ?

Dulwich Hamlet vs. Potters Bar Town

 

[JTG]

can't come but I think you all should

the Hamlet are great, any team that plays in pink has got to be worth watching

 

[editor]

I'm away for this one, although I fancy checking out the 'amlet a few times this season.

What the Editor said.

 

[Andy the Don]

Only a pre-season friendly the Ryman League season starts next Saturday (18th August)..

what the editor and onket said.

What Andy the D - said - poxy pre-season and you'll be fleeced seven notes. I doubt many of the regular Rabblers will even be turning out for this.

It's a big year for the pink 'n blue boys this season. New manager, new squad and a lease that's fast running out.

The Fisher merger rumours refuse to go away...

What's the skinny on this, Mr Skills?

bollocks maybe I'll pub it and watch a game then

 

[Tricky Skills]

What's the skinny on this, Mr Skills?

Officially the two clubs have separate owners. Lots of informal crossover though.

Fisher are ground sharing with us whilst their new 'stadium' (ha) is being built. Looks like that could be a few years away yet. The lease on Champion Hill runs out in five years. It would make business sense for the Hamlet to head over to Surrey Quays

Fisher this season are really Hamlet of last year. They took our manager, our chairman and EIGHT players. If they weren't good enough to get Dulwich out of the poxy Ryman Division One, then I can't see how they'll perform in the Blue Square South.

Full of optimism!

 

[Tricky Skills]

Plus..

BBC London now has a very decent weekly non-league show.

 

[corporate whore]

Worrying news, Mr Skills. Will deffo have a wander the whole 3 minutes from my place to the ground this coming season.

Does Sainsbury own the lease or Southwark?

 

[Tricky Skills]

Mmmm - think it might be our old friends the mysterious Dulwich Estate. Not sure though.

THREAD BUMP! THREAD BUMP!

Hamlet are top of the table this season (7 games in unbeaten and having played some other top teams), theres a long way to go, but possible promotion beckons... if ever there was a time to support them to glory its now! Fixtures:

We can be glory hunters!

 

[editor]

If you type in 'dulwich hamlet photos' I'm #1!

 

[Onket]

Why can't you cut n paste on these boards?

 

[Brixton Hatter]

yeah really want to go and see the Hamlet again soon. We saw a cracking 3-2 win there against Chipstead last season.

I was...ahem...politely removed from the "directors box" by the friendly Chairman - I'd absent mindedly wandered in there in a slightly drunken stupor!

great club

I dont know whats happened this year, there are only a handful of Saturday home fixtures - most of the home fixtures are at 3pm on a Tuesday. Im guessing they're sharing the ground with someone...?

In your heart you know this is a daft thing to say. Fixtures - scroll right down the page as it starts at the top with 06/07:

http://www.dulwichhamletfc.co.uk/fixtures-results.php

Huge game coming up on the 22nd - FA Cup, First Qualifying Round (possible league opposition if they win that)!

Ive been trying to go to a home game this year and its been hard to find a date, been reading through the fixtures on that link and checking against a calendar - but your right there are lots of dates coming up - strange - I could have sworn there were just a couple - seems i was having a little brain malfunction!

There apparently is a continued threat to the ground - loads of stuff on the supporters' website http://www.dhst.org.uk/ with estate agent brochure http://www.dhst.org.uk/pdfs/Sale.pdf showing potential - although impression given is that any developer would have to re-site the football stadium

Dulwich Hamlet top of the leauge with two games to play! They really might go up this year
http://www.dulwichhamletfc.co.uk/league-table.php
Last home game this Sat, then one away game and its all over! Come on you Hamlet

 

[ska invita]

In fact, if Dulwich win on Saturday they cant be caught! Well worth getting down there this saturday (3pm)

 

[stevebradley]

I love a bit of lower league football, so might get meself down for this after the official opening of the new Slade Gardens children's playground (*cough* starts at 1pm *cough*).

 

[Thaw]

Hamlet don't really keep that table up to date. 2 games left but they are a point behind Bognor and Whitehawk

I go to West Ham a lot and the standard of football isnt much different.

Were will they get promoted to, if they do?

 

[Thaw]

Were will they get promoted to, if they do?

To the Ryman Premier League
Then from there to Conference South, then Conference National, then League 2...and so on, and so forth until the owners get crooked, they go bankrupt and end up back at the start. Like Portsmouth are going to.

 

[Onket]

Or get bought and move to somewhere like Milton Keynes.
