Dulwich Hamlets FC


Recommended Posts

I'd just like to say what a fantastic time I've had going to the last two Hamlets friendly games. The atmosphere was great and everyone was friendly. I'd not been before despite being a big football fan but will now definately be buying a season ticket and plan to get down there whenever they play. Not only was the football enjoyable but I had a great time having a laugh talking to people and meeting other people who live in Dulwich who I may not have met.

I'd urge anyone who hasn't been before to give it a go and get behind the team, great for community spirit!

I totally agree. We moved to East Dulwich 2 years ago and lived behind the football ground. I went to my first game within a month of moving here...and loved it!


Its a nice friendly atmosphere...theres never any aggro , hoolaganism or trouble. The crowds have banter and a laugh...we pile into the bar at half time and full time ...for footie results on Sky!

And great little kitchen downstairs with the ladies serving up tasty burgers, chips, hot dogs


The nicest thing is being able to take my little girl down there..and she happly runs around playing and watching the footie with me!!

Even Franster who normally hates football , enjoyed the day out down there.


Its great value for money...?6 entry


So come down and support your local team here!!

It's good to hear that people enjoyed it so much. Likewise I converted from watching higher level football after moving here in the late 90s - it's suprising how many people do so, once they 'discover' it and give it a try. There are certainly no glory hunters (!) just locals - or people who used to be locals - enjoying the football and a few beers.


Just to emphasise the point on prices - the club have cut admission by 25% this season (from ?8 to ?6) which I think brings it much more into line with what I would say is good value for the quality of football played. Over 60s and 12-16 year olds are just ?2 and accompanied children under 12 are free.


Season tickets are also cheap as chips. Details are on the link below (ignore the 'ticketing page on the website which has the old prices).

In case people don't know, the club were one of the great teams of amateur football's golden age from the 1920s to 1950s attracting five figure crowds to a massive ground where Sainsbury's now is - the history page from the club's website below may be of interest to those who would like to know more.

Hopefully with more local support they can have a brighter future too.

Yeah we all can see the Muck is trying to blame the Gooner for her misconduct......but Muck is Muck wherever it stands......


*runs onto pitch, volleys bog roll into air....chests it down....cruyff turns the last defender and scores!*


Eddie, the stands are going to be invaded by EDFers over the coming season....be sure to keep reminding us of the games and the great value they are for a family day/ evening out!


Oh and I can hand on heart say that the team ain't half bad either.

And yes...roll on the next game. I might even take up knitting and knit myself a pink and blue scarf. How much is a season ticket?

    • I don't know how spoillable food can be used as evidence in whatever imaginary CSI scenario you are imagining.  And yes, three times. One purchase was me, others were my partner. We don't check in with each other before buying meat. Twice we wrote it off as incidental. But now at three times it seems like a trend.   So the shop will be hearing from me. Though they won't ever see me again that's for sure.  I'd be happy to field any other questions you may have Sue. Your opinion really matters to me. 
    • If you thought they were off, would it not have been a good idea to have kept them rather than throwing them away, as evidence for Environmental Health or whoever? Or indeed the shop? And do you mean this is the third time you have bought chicken from the same shop which has been off? Have you told the shop? Why did you buy it again if you have twice previously had chicken from there which was off? Have I misunderstood?
    • I found this post after we just had to throw away £14 of chicken thighs from Dugard in HH, and probably for the 3rd time. They were roasted thoroughly within an hour of purchase. But they came out of the oven smelling very woofy.  We couldn't take a single bite, they were clearly off. Pizza for dinner it is then. Very disappointing. 
    • interesting read.  We're thinking about the same things for our kids in primary school as well. One thing I don't understand about Charter ED is whether they stream / set kids based on ability.  I got the impression from an open evening that it is done a little as possible. All i could find on-line was this undated letter - https://www.chartereastdulwich.org.uk/_site/data/files/users/18/documents/9473A8A3547CCCD39DBC4A55CA1678DC.pdf?pid=167 For the most part, we believe in mixed ability teaching and do not stream in Year 7 or Year 8. The only exceptions to this are that we have a small nurture class for Maths. This is a provision for students who scored lower than 85 in their SATS exams and is designed to support them to acquire the skills to access the learning in mainstream class. We do not have nurture classes for any other subjects. We take a more streamed - though not a setted - approach in Maths and Science from Year 9 onwards. though unsure if this is still accurate reflection of policy, and unsure of difference between streaming and setting.
