Did anyone go to today's meeting about the future of the Club?

A recording of the meeting...

I didn't attend the post-match meeting, but a footie buddy did and he has sent me this link (thanks Weegee). http://www.pitchero.com/clubs/dulwichhamlet/news/new-owners-announced-1166657.html

Whilst on the pitch is fab, worrying times off the pitch I'd say

Short article in this month's WSC about the possiblity of the ground being turned into housing.

[Laddy Muck]

I think the WSC article is probably the one which reflects the current situation the most accurately. On a different note, I had no idea that the old Champion Hill stadium had hosted football at the 1948 London Olympics. Bloomin marvellous!

I'm sure I read it somewhere, sometime, that the ground was used by the England squad for training prior to departing to Chile for the 1962 World Cup. That squad would have included Charlton and Greaves.

I didn't know until just now that Alan Pardew made iver 50 appearances for the Hamlets between 84 - 86.

I knew that Peter Croutch had a short koan spell of around 15 matches. Think he scored on his debut but not any more.

[Jah Lush]

Ian Wright played for the Hamlet as well.

[Otta]

I'd always thought tha but can't find mention of it.

Bad loss to the mighty Lewes yesterday

Beaten by the Old Bill tonight.

DHFC V Bognor Regis Saturday, should be a good game/turnout. ST holders please use main entrance, Mike and I will be there from 1pm.

People have still been queuing for upto 10 minutes after KO, we only have a limited turnstile turnover so please don't leave it too late and miss the game.

Still need volunteer stewards, a couple of pints post game is all that is no offer but should we gain promotion league rules mean we WILL need extra stewards.

There is no absolute commitment, just what you can, but if we can get a pool of stewards that would be great and we would be prepared.

Steve the Burger van is no more as well, whether there is something to replace by Saturday is unknown as yet ??

Happy to answer PMs or generals on here

[Laddy Muck]

KO in 30 mins. We may have lost at the hands of the "mighty Lewes" ("mighty" my arse - SJ) and the Police, but Maidstone lost too (*snigger*) so we remain TOTL. :)

BR - I've a pretty full plate at the moment, but like the idea of helping out our local club. Would DH consider one Sat. (or sometimes - less) a month?

Beating top 2 in the league within 4 days = mighty

[Alex K]

More about burger vans, please. Will gladly re-arrange my Saturday to stop by, for example, a Meatwagon franchise in the car-park now clogged by the Romanian car-wash queue.

Dirty seaside b*st**ds

[Atticus]

Normally a champion of all things DHFC, today the standard of football was as always impressive, unfortunately the beer didn't match, flat as Everton's back four today. Also charged 2.50 for half a lager, think that was an innocent mistake but overall unlike the side continues to do, the bar needs to up its game.

[Jah Lush]

Bugger Bognor!

Sugars!
