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...

      well - that is disappointing. We know the impact of foreign buyers on the housing market.

      New Shops in East Dulwich and Nearby - 2025 Edition

      By Dogkennelhillbilly · Posted

      I much prefer Romeo Jones to >spit< Gail's, but I'm struggling to blame this on the LTN when nothing outside Romeo Jones has changed, the LTN came in 5 (!!!) years ago, and Gail's has queues out the door most days. It also is directly opposite Rocca (which serves coffee and has seating), next door to Porters (which serves coffee and has seating), a few doors along from Real Greek (which serves coffee and has seating), and diagonally across from Gail's (which serves coffee and sells baked goods and has seating). I'll be sorry to see Romeo Jones go (not least because I have a stack of stamped loyalty cards). I don't want to criticise small business owners because it's a tough old racket, but DVillage never really seemed to find its niche either as a proper deli (like La Gastronomia or The Sicilian in West Dulwich) or as a coffee shop (which is difficult when you have Megan's and Redemption right next to you, and Au Ciel around the corner).

      Hopefully we will see something like Melbourne Grove, where all the shops that initially closed after the road closures were then replaced with new ones. I think all the units on that street are now finally open for business.

      Here's a working link: https://www.propertywire.com/news/london/circa-london-partners-with-developer-to-sell-9-6m-dulwich-townhouses-to-far-east-buyers/ I think they look quite nice from the outside which is what matters to me as a member of the public. The indoor floorplan is not to my taste with lots of awkward small floors, but I don't care about the inside as I don't plan on living in them.
