Ay tis.

?7 entry. Cheap beer at the bar, where you can now finish your half time pint at your own pace looking down out the windows, pretending you're in the corporate box (when it's really really cold, it's difficult to leave).

Comedy football with outbursts of quality.

Usually get some handbags too.

Occasionally surreal scenes like the time half the pitch was off limits due to a particularly territorial Canadian Goose.

All the fun of the fair really.


First home game is the 21st I think.

there's a thread about it here from last season. The first game I went to saw three red cards and a knock out, another one the Hamlets were 3-0 down and came back to win 4-3 in a last minute clincher and in another the linesman was stretchered off. I believe they're having to start with a fresh new squad this season as last year's manager Wayne "Oi Ref! Oi Ref! Oi Ref! Fu*k off" Barnet has taken last season's squad with him to Fischer Athletic.


So yes, a good day out.

I haven't been to see them since I was a kid but if anyone on here fancies meeting up one Saturday to watch a match there and support our local team I'd certainly give it some consideration. Mind you the colour and style of their kit is a lot to be desired.

The ground is actually in SE5. That's Camberwell.

Sorry to be a pedant, but the postcode for the ground is SE22 8BD, so that makes it an East Dulwich club in my book.


They played pretty well on Tuesday given it's almost an entirely new team - they should have scored more.


Next match at Champion Hill is on Saturday at 3.00 v. Worthing

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
    • ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
    • You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
