More than aware of these "epitahs", since I've followed the club since 68, unlike Tick Tac who changes allegiances to suit his mood. Proper plum. If I were to come out with the dross that he trots out, I'd be told to be less antagonistic and confrontational, he, on the other hand, is seen as a bit of a joker. The man is hilarious, just like his clubs exploits in the CMPL, ooops sorry, I forgot that they aren't in it any more. Now I promise to leave it, provided Victoria Plum drops it.

As it happens, and a rarity among West Ham fans, I've a reasonable amount of time for Lampard, he strikes me as petty bright for an English footballer, and apart from the horrible episode after 9/11, tends to act with decorum and dignity. He's given West Ham fans a fair bit of stick but has faced some pretty hideous abuse off them (including when he played for us - "daddy's boy" etc), his dad was unceremoniously sacked by the club with no notice was he ever going to want to carry on playing for us then?


Still praying Chelsea finish 5th or 6th ....even if Spuds get the spot,mmmm, maybe

Aris boasts a remarkable statistic in European football; the club has not lost a home game in European competition in 42 years, having gone 25 games undefeated at the Kleanthis Vikelidis stadium. This record was notably maintained when Aris defeated Europa League champions Atletico Madrid on 16 September 2010, Aris' 22nd undefeated home game in Europe. The team then went on to tie Bayer Leverkusen to keep the record intact once more.


From wiki.

At last. It's good to know that I'm not the only one. Whatever Hammers fans say he was one of the best box to box players I've seen at Upton Park. His position wasn't really helped with sacking of his Father and of course his uncle.


But of all the clubs Abramovich had to pick, he picked them tossers.

Keef - with more people like you on this forum, there would be no fun at all.


If you can dish it out you should be able to take it. My personal view is that anyone who can get annoyed about football banter needs to take a good look at themselves.

Nope, I always had time for Frank at Upton Park. I thought he was a consistent and talented performer for us for years and got very annoyed at the abuse he received from the fans, all that lumplard rubbish, it was so self defeating.


Both Franks were treated pretty shamefully ..err...frankly... so good luck to him. But yeah, the whole Chelsea badge kiss thing is pretty annoying...i mean...chelsea...

      Family Photography

      By dianamaru · Posted

      Hello East Dulwich families 👋 I wanted to introduce myself to the community. I’m a professional family & wedding photographer with 14+ years of experience, and I split my time between the US and London throughout the year. I’ll be based in London for the coming weeks and would love to photograph more local families here in East Dulwich. My approach is very relaxed and natural — no stiff posing, no pressure — just real connection, movement, and the beautiful everyday moments that tell your family’s story. I work especially well with kids and parents who feel “awkward” in front of the camera (which honestly is most of us!). Sessions can take place at home, in the park, on your favourite street, or anywhere that feels meaningful to you. The goal is to create images that feel like your life — not a photoshoot. If anyone has been thinking about documenting this season with their children, I’d love to connect, answer questions, or simply share examples of my work. No pressure at all — just happy to be here and meet some neighbours. You can see my work here: https://bluesparkphotography.com/family/ (use the contact page on the site to send me a message if you're interested!).

      Be careful in local shops

      I don't! But I've also taken to calling myself David, as it seems to shorten the odds of achieving something in life. It's not King Dave, Dave Lloyd George, Dave Hockney, Dave Bowie or Dave Hasselhoff is it? And I'm not sure Michelangelo would have had such success if he'd called his sculpture 'Dave'.
