It ended up as a 1-1 draw, so Dulwich slip to 6th and out of the play-off places for the first time since September....


Nevertheless, it's still been a great year considering it was the first season back in the Premier Division. The crowd of 1,388 shows the potential that the club has to keep pushing on.


There will be a player awards evening at the ground on Saturday 10th May (7.00pm) to say thanks to the players - free entry and food. Details to follow.

Thanks for sharing those pics. The match was against Walthamstow Avenue in 1986/7. That was the only season we wore pink shorts and Avenue finished bottom and we never played them again as they amalgamated with Leytonstone-Ilford, eventually renaming themselves Redbridge Forest before amalgamating with Dagenham, to form the club now playing in the Football League. Avenue are wearing their away kit. (Their traditional colours were sky & navy hoops.) The Hamlet players in the first picture are Stokley Sawyers (no.10) and Paul Williams, who played one League match for Chelsea as a youngster. From memory it was Sawyers' debut for the club and they both scored an a game Hamlet won 5-2.

    • Thank you, this really made me chuckle. It's like you met my brother as he would be the one taking more than his share. Plus the 'pikey' chutney is a winner. Unusual as in can't be identified??? Sadly I'm not the host otherwise I would definitely do that I regularly shop in the Cheese Block and am a fan. But as people have pointed out, there is no cheese shop that charges less based on bulk, so Aldi unusual cheeses may be what the familam receive! Yay, so I can get discounted mouse nibbled cheese still! Oooo, now I do love a Stinking Bishop. It actually offends my stepmum by it's stinkiness but luckily she is not one of the attendees at this particular gathering.  This is blooming genius. It's actually my partner who has the biggest issue with buying in plastic so I will have to hide the wrappers from him!
    • I like the look of SD's Sweet and Sour chicken. It's a really good dish when made freshly and well. I'll need to try it. Sad that Oriental Star and Lucky House by Dulwich Library both closed at a similarish time. They were decent, reliable, "British Chinese" takeaways.
    • William S Spicer was a family-owned firm that initially made horse drawn delivery carts for breweries (especially Fullers Brewery in W London) and horse-drawn trams. With the advent of the internal combustion engine, they successfully made the transition to coachbuilding delivery vehicles London's leading department stores using German engines. WW2 interrupted their business for obvious reasons, and their postwar attempt to become the local assembler and distributor of Bulgarian "Izmama" trucks was not blessed with good fortune. In 1953, the company pivoted to being a full-service garage, leveraging their reputation for honesty and excellence.  In 1972, the Dulwich site was sold to its present owners. William S Spicer III (the grandson of the founder) retired to Lancashire, where he founded a sanctuary for the endangered ineptia beetle, which he had encountered in Bulgaria while travelling for business. In 1978, Spicer was awarded an OBE for conservation, and a newly-discovered  beetle was named after him by the Bulgarian People's National Academy of Sciences - Byturus Spicerius.
