If your energetic offspring are keen to play good football to a high standard then DHFC are looking for new players


(particularly 8-9 year olds)


My Son is obsessed with the game & has been training with the club this year. It's the most welcoming and considerate/passionate bunch of coaches i've come across. My youngest loves it & we look forward to the training each week


( no shouty parents on the side-lines - which in itself is a joy )

I should tell you Nette that most of my son's football career was spent playing for DHJFC.I have so many fantastic memories of some of his games and especially the year they got to the London Cup semi-final as complete underdogs. However there were teams who had not just shouty parents but obnoxious ones too. I'm glad to say that the parents of the teams he played in were great as were his coaches. Actually one of his team-mates plays for the DH senior team nowadays.

I have to say one of the best speeches I ever heard (third only to Henry V and Tim Collins) was the coach for Millwall Lionesses, some years' ago. It was about what was expected of the players and parents, was so uplifting I was weeping by the end of it.


Alas, some of the parents seemed to have filtered it out.

Booooo


Rain stops play


Rescheduled until next week ( I think )


Still, at least I got to stand round on Peckham Rye in the pouring rain, whilst the-golden-child ran his energy off


And that's a good thing


A bit bonkers, but not as bonkers the man jogging in bare feet

    • I sometimes don't feel as comfortable as I did but it's not because I'm older, it's because I'm sober. Staggering home when I was younger I always felt I like a had a cloak of invisibility around me. And a magic compass - not even sure how I found my way home some nights. 
    • I'm London born and bred and have always considered myself streetwise having grown up in Notting hill (pre getrification) and I lived on the border of Harlesden (kensal green) in the 90's  when it was pretty sketchy round there .and I spent much of the 80's and early 90's in downtown New York.. I would walk everywhere at all hours of the day and night and never felt particularly uneasy largely because I was always mindful of my surroundings and walked with 'purpose'. I don't know wether its because I'm now so much older but I don't feel as comfortable as I used to walking round London. Today I was in the West end and I made sure to carry my bag on the opposite arm to that facing the kerb and felt uneasy when I saw people wizzing around on limebikes or scooters close to the kerb..I never got my phone out at all...I never used to feel like this but just recently I've had friends witness phone and bag snatching in central london in broad daylight..apparently it happened so fast in both instances there was nothing anyone could do to help..One phone snatching was during the tube strike 7.30am two guys on bikes grabbed a mans phone..My friend took the victim to a nearby hotel to sit down and recover the hotel said due to the tube strike they had witnessed many duo's of youth out very early on bikes aware that there were more pedestrians around at that time with their phones out trying for Ubers or looking at directions. I would'nt say I feel 'unsafe' I just feel more aware of being a possible target for crime than formerly. I don't know if this is due to being older or due to reading the press.
    • The fact everyone has had a CCTV camera in their pockets for the last 15+ years has done a huge amount to prevent and mitigate random drunken violence.  Thugs can't get away with what they used to anymore.
    • Do you mean that there are only very few trades people and that all of their thousands of happy customers post glowing reviews but most of them have only ever posted once to recommend said trade person on the trade person's own thread?   If so, I agree it's mysterious.
