[Jah Lush]

Yes, but who's going to pay for it?

[AGW3]

Fantastic they made the playoffs albeit by the skin of their teeth.

[Otta]

Was a good crowd at Tonbridge.

[Jah Lush]

The play-off against Margate is an all-ticket affair.

[Otta]

And IF they get past that the final will be at Champion Hill...

[Jah Lush]

Woo!

[GriffDHFC]

Just to add that the final will only be at Champion Hill IF we beat Margate AND whoever gets the last playoff spot (Enfield Town or Met Police 🚓 depending on what happens with Enfield's points deduction and any subsequent appeal) wins away to Hendon.

[Otta]

Fingers crossed!

Gutted the Margate match couldn't have been next weekend.

[Jah Lush]

It's been postponed due to some sort of appeal from Enfield.

It's complicated but the last couple of pages of this thread provide some background: http://www.urban75.net/forums/threads/margate-v-dulwich-hamlet-7-45pm-30-04-2015.334409/page-6

Really bad that a large number of Hamlet fans - and many others no doubt - have been put to not inconsiderable expense and huge inconvenience by the manifest failings of the FA and Ryman League in this matter.

[not2late]

If they go up, what league is above Ryman Premier?

[Jah Lush]

Conference South.

[Otta]

That's shocking considering the Enfield situation has no bearing on DHFC / Margate.

[GriffDHFC]

Perversely it could do. One of the options open to the league as punishment for Enfield is to replay the game they won in which they played the suspended player. And guess who that is against? Hendon! If Enfield win by a big enough score they could overtake Dulwich, meaning we'd play Hendon in our semi. In an even more absurbist twist if Hendon were to win that (theoretical) game by a big enough margin they win the title at the expense of Maidstone. However can you see that happening? Watch this space (and several others).

[AGW3]

Could be a plot for a theatrical farce. We have the cinema, Dulwich Theatre anyone?

South London's number one.

Paid the old Lady a visit to find out the situation regarding the playoffs but noone seems to know and it sounds like a shambles. Can anyone shed any light on this?

[BrandNewGuy]

According to the Enfield Independent newspaper, "The appeal will take place on Friday, May 8 and it is expected the outcome will be announced promptly." So there'll be no news about the play-offs before next week. Shambles.

El Pibe,

Saw this in the fanzine - brilliant.

Did you do it? When can we expect the DHFC graphic novel?

That article is useful,The Dulwich Raider. I wish I had known before as it would have saved me and my flatmate lots of wasted phone calls only to be told "we don't know". Shambles allright.
