Our draw for the next round of the FA Trophy is a very winnable away trip to Bury Town on 12th December: http://www.pitchero.com/clubs/dulwichhamlet/news/dulwich-hamlet-on-the-road-after-fa-trophy-draw-to-1533899.html

Quite a long trip from SE London though.

I just HAD to google this. Here's what I found. Not quite 20 - 30,000 but the article writes about numbers of 10,000 and 13,000 - which is not insignificant. Thanks Doc.

Dear DHST,


How much for the pink shirts? And do they come in a "small"?


Thank you.

It was September 1949 and the article suggests a crowd of 18,000 for the match at Dulwich Hamlet.

18,000, 20,000, or 30,000...I am trying to imagine how far those sort of numbers would stretch at CH! I'd have loved to have been at those games. The largest DH game I've attended has had figures of touching 3,000 (I think)and that felt massive to me. Thanks dc (and Doc).


Doc, 1949...were you around then? :))

Why do you say that, Chief? I am genuinely curious.

Yes this game had a bit of everything - bumpy pitch, strong winds, penalty save from Phil in the first half, Hamlet took the lead early in second half, terrible second penalty decision given against us leading to their equaliser, Carew sent off for protesting, then Assistant Manager sent off, then Manager Gav sent off a bit later and then a last minute winner!

I too am beginning to wish I'd gone, and despite all the drama theyre still at the top. Let's hope they can keep playing the way they have been.

    • I wonder where he could be deported to, Hungary the obvious candidate in Europe, perhaps he would get on well with Modi?   Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch and Reform UK leader Nigel Farage both said Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood should look at whether Abd El Fattah's citizenship could be revoked to enable his swift removal from the UK. Farage said in a letter to Mahmood: "It should go without saying that anyone who possesses racist and anti-British views such as those of [Mr Abd El Fattah] should not be allowed into the UK." So just racists views are ok Nige?
    • Always preferred Grace and Favour to the BMC, commented in the past on this and sadly long since gone   
    • If it's the same one I'm thinking of, it was a little further down the road towards LL, probably where the Fresh Flower Company is today. I'd forgotten all about it, with good reason. I think it disappeared before Blue Mountain opened and became a pizza place? I once bought a carton of milk from the deli and when I opened it, it was solid. I did get my money back though.
    • But when was it posted?! I haven't posted any this year. I can't bring myself to pay the exorbitant cost of the stamps, and at least I can sort of honestly blame it on illness. If I can't hand deliver them, I send e-cards. I know it's not the same, but it's very much easier. And as for the people who still send pages of closely handwritten letters .... very admirable in terms of the hours it must have taken them to write them,  but they remind me of those spoofs eg x has just passed all their many important exams with the highest marks possible, y has just walked round the world in a week, z has just become the first person ever to be knighted twice, we are about to fly off for our fifteenth exotic holiday this year ....... Or else (or sometimes and) they are full of who has had what illnesses and accidents and other catastrophes. Is this just my relatives and distant friends? Am I somehow attracting these reams of handwritten paper?
