What are you lot like with your Arse this, your Spurs that, and your Chels the other?


Fugging brilliant tonight, best match I've seen for ages (5-2) and onto the quarters in a couple of weeks time. Perhaps you big boys will join us for that.


Seriously excellent entertainment and a giant killing too.

Jah is spot on.


There are several Hamlet supporters on here. And malumbu's "you lot" stuff is tiresome to say the least.


It's like he's caught on to a cool band years after everyone else, and suddenly thinks he's discovered the underground scene before anyone else, so starts saying things like "that's way too mainstream for me ".

Ah the misinterpretation of the written word. If you look at my second two sentences you may actually not I was expressing what a wonderful night it was. I am sure it is was for you too.


I am sorry if my purely facetious first sentence caused offence. Actually I am not, it is nice to provoke such feelings. But do I really need to explain all of this? Football coverage was focused on the big teams when I was growing up, and far worse now. Nowt wrong with pointing out the pleasures of grass roots. Used to alternate between league and non-league as a kid (the latter club sadly has gone out of business).


Jumpers for goal posts etc etc.


Anyway looking forward to going to my first FA Trophy quarter final for 42 years.

Malambu - i think if you stopped saying "you lot" in front of every other post it would help a lot.


Given that there are 3 regular posters in Football Focus who I have seen at Dulwich Hamlet on several occasions you're assumptions about how 'us lot' follow football are horsh!t. You frequently do this too, so it starts to get a bit annoying.

It's very true.


Thankfully all the big away games are out of the way now. Our highest placed away game left is West Ham.


Something to be addressed in the summer.

Spurs badly miss Danny Rose and Jan Vertongen on that left side of the pitch at the back. Wimmer came in for Verts against Man City and had an absolute mare in the first half against Man City and was taken off and hasn't featured since. He didn't put a foot wrong covering for him when he was injured last season but has been poor whenever he's appeared this season. On Saturday it was Ben Davies turn to have a nightmare. His serious lack of pace is a problem for us and the sooner Rose gets back the better. On current form he's the best left back in Europe. Other than that yeah, an insipid display but still second in the league, which is an improvement on this time last season. I agree that an experienced player could help us, someone who has the experience of winning things and still has the hunger to win more.

This link shows how the table looked after 25 matches the last 2 years.


http://www.skysports.com/football/news/11662/10159745/what-did-the-premier-league-table-look-like-this-time-last-year


Spurs are 2 points better off now than they were at this stage last year.


However, Chelsea are 7 points better off than Leicester were.

      But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?

      ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
