Dulwich Hamlet FA Youth Cup 2019/20 Season

Reminder that the rearranged Hastings fixture takes place tomorrow night at Champion Hill!

7:30pm kick off, 3 quid on the door for adults, 1 quid concessions, U18s FREE.

 

Enjoyable 4-3 win. Tika Taka gets a shafting.

 

Was good that. Couple of pieces of play by Miracle Achampong worth the admission money on their own, and that's before the 7 goals.

Hasting looked superior in the first 15 but Dulwich raised their game and in the end deserved to go through

 

First 15 minutes, or first 15m of the pitch?!

 

Looked a healthy crowd. Anybody know what the attendance was?

 

First 15 mins... I thought it was a bit ominous that that Hastings boys were wearing GPS tracker bibs in that warm up, and seemed to go 1 up fairly effortlessly.

Don't think it was read out or tweeted but less than the last round I reckon, maybe around the 120 mark with 30 or so from Hastings.

 

151 I believe

 

The next match in the 3rd Qualifying Round sees us playing K Sports away. They're based on Aylesford, Kent

Date for match now confirmed as Monday 14th October @7pm.

 

What's the rush?

 

Round just gone was postponed perhaps? Just a guess.

 

Yeah the Hastings game was due to be played a week earlier

 

The FA Youth Cup is always every couple of weeks or so in the earlier rounds anyway. Looking forward to it. New ground for me...

 

Hastings played the previous round late so that carried over to our tie. This date brings it back on track.
Also K Sports is Kent FA ground and access to the pitch is limited

 

tonight's score , anyone ?

 

4-1 win.

 

Anyone know when the draw is for the next round? Wasn't obvious from the FA Website.

 

Yesterday was the first day ties for this round could be played, so presumably they'll be scattered throughout the week with a draw next Monday or Tuesday as the next round is to be played w/c 28th.

 

FA site says first round proper is week commencing 02/11/2019

 

I think they have to be done by the 2/11 as it's a Saturday so wouldn't be a w/c.

 

Div 1 and 2 sides in the hat, right?

Here's hoping the first XI can do the same on Saturday..

 

If you mean League One & Two, as I’m old third & fourth division... then yes.
Top two divisions enter in the third round proper.

 

Home to Crawley Town.

 

Home draw good, but a crap draw from my selfish perspective.

 

Go on then, which other clubs in the draw were "one of those grounds you always mean to do"!

 

No idea, haven’t checked who else was in the draw.

 

Through to the 2nd round after Crawley withdraw from the competition

 

Is this what it feels like to be Chichester?

 

Similar, but without the added bonus of £36k in your sky rocket

 

As above, no First Round game for us as Crawley withdrew from the competition.

We will be at home in the Second Round against the winners of tomorrow night's game - Forest Green Rovers vs Helston Athletic.

Bit of background on Helston here, for anyone interested: Blues prepare for latest step in historic FA Youth Cup run

 

That would’ve been a great away draw!
