No need for the "ouch"...


It was bad luck on Dulwich...they played magnificently from the outset and gave their all right until the final whistle.


Yes, we went into extra time and Leatherhead got ahead...but WHAT A GAME! For me, probably the best all season. Nice crowd too. We found ourselves sitting amongst Leatherhead supporters, but they were very tolerant of us Pink and Blues. An elderly gentleman gave me his programme as a souvenir. He must have been about 100 years old LOL! And we sat next to a dad of one of the players - so that was interesting too. A wonderful afternoon. And Dulwich Hamlet should be proud.


Mr. Medic, your fella (no. 2) was there - he played exceptionally well. Weegee, your chum Martin was there too. Nice to see the Dulwich supporters out in force.


I am exhausted!

Wow! That's only 10 years ago. Kalvin has grown a bit, but is still quite little. Certainly he's the shortest player, but what he lacks in size he more than makes up for in skill on the pitch. He's very talented and fast - so much so that we have nicknamed him "the whippet". You should have seen him play yesterday - you would have been proud. Whilst they all played well, little Kalvin stood out as one of the best (if not the best). He seemed very sad at the end though; sat on the pitch looking very dejected, whilst his teammates tried to coax him into standing up to the cheering crowd. Do you no longer go and watch them play then?


As for Medic jnr, he is the tallest! And he looks most serious.


Again, a lovely photograph.

Kalvin always gave his best and never had tantrums like some under age players did. Medic jnr lacked a friend in the team (most joined up with a friend) and at that age was a bit shy I think. He scored some fantastic goals,would put his head down and run back to the half way line almost embarressed. He once scored a goal from almost the half way line and I can still remember the shout from the other side of the pitch when it went in......'he's like David Beckham'. Great.


Must take jnr to see Kalvin play next season...........

Kalvin is great in that he doesn't do any of this "diving" or "lying on the ground" stuff in order to gain an advantage. If he goes down, he is up again in a jiffy. Sounds as though he hasn't changed.


Shame Medic jnr didn't keep it up. And - yes - you should take him next season. DH may not have got their promotion this time around, but - if they continue to play as well as they have this season - I don't see why they shouldn't get promoted next year. Despite playing like troopers, they were unlucky at yesterday's play-off.


Roll on next season!

      GALA 2026

      By fishboy · Posted

      Not sure about that - I'm personally not too bothered by the noise, despite living possibly the closest to the site. I am bothered by the impact on all the wildlife, as should hopefully everyone with a conscience and who care about their community?

      Their coffee and food is delicious. Really nicely decorated cafe with a nice vibe and a great selection of books too. The owner and staff are all very friendly and happy to chat when preparing your order.

      The venn diagram of people who are personally really bothered by the noise from GALA and are also deeply concerned about the local bat population looks remarkably just like a circle.

      Language is a fluid and evolving thing and as it changes the original meaning of words can alter to take on a new true meaning or meanings. Original meaning is not the same as true meaning. Take the word literal which is now used to mean the very opposite of how the word used to be used, irritating for some of us but demonstrates the English language is vibrant and alive and also very subjective. But I must go and make myself a cup of tea now or I will literally die of thirst
