Thanks Alan. My boyhood idol. What a player he was. The greatest goalscorer I've ever seen and I've seen a few. Did you watch it? Marvellous stuff.

Yep, good to see the top 4 shaken up a bit, especially if it will be at the expense of a certain team at the other end of the East Lancs Road...

Do come and join the other thread DR, I was never expecting it to stick to cases for the ESL. Looking at some of the debate on this thread maybe shows why ESR is the logical conclusion. If football was the 'true working class' game as it perhaps was 60 years ago then most of the discussion would be about Palace and Millwall. Just take a look at kids training on the Rye on a Saturday and most will not be wearing local colours. And perhaps you have said as I have, just pee off to the ESL big 4 (now big 6); perhaps they heard me.


Even when I was growing up there was so much bias towards the 'big' clubs - not counting Chels and Man City in those days.

It's selfish and only motivated by those whose idea of fans are those paying to watch on tv in the large markets outside of Europe. If anything, the detestable fan 'muzak' played over games at empty stadia during the pandemic has probably convinced the yanks they don't need real ones at the grounds anymore.




It's just for those who want to help themselves to an 'open goal'-

      Did Dulwich College tolerate pupils' bigotry and racism...?

      By malumbu · Posted

      As I may have said before those that knew him  at DC who I have met sat similar, but not sure if they are quoting the above contacts or first hand experience.  And of course that he has changed the pronunciation of his surname

      Did Dulwich College tolerate pupils' bigotry and racism...?

      By Dogkennelhillbilly · Posted

      A detailed account of Nigel Farage's alleged racist and neofascist behaviour while he attended Dulwich College appears in the Guardian: https://www.theguardian.com/politics/ng-interactive/2025/nov/18/deeply-shocking-nigel-farage-faces-fresh-claims-of-racism-and-antisemitism-at-school Obviously for most the relevant question is if these allegations are true, then is Farage a suitable person for public office? But for Dulwich local yokels (and tbh anyone that's already formed a firm opinion about Farage), the more interesting question might be whether Dulwich College incubated and tolerated pupils' racist and bigoted behaviour at the time? After all, the allegations include that NF and a number of other boys sang songs about gassing Jews and engaged in other bigoted behaviour, that teachers were either present or aware of that behaviour, and that nothing was done. It's remarkable that pieces of the reporting abour 40 years ago mirror some of the allegations about Dulwich College's reaction to some pupils' alleged sexist and predatory behaviour 4 years ago. Minimisation, dismissal, wilful blindness... https://www.thetimes.com/uk/crime/article/i-warned-head-of-dulwich-college-about-abusive-boys-five-years-ago-xkxgjftk8 https://www.theguardian.com/education/2021/mar/26/dulwich-college-head-warns-pupils-over-culture-protest

      Saied (Dulwich Eco Gardening) said he’d give us our garden back and he did. He cleared the overgrown front and back. It was bigger than we remember.    He doesn’t do hard landscaping on the scale we needed but recommended someone (Kris 07938 204480). He flagged and fenced it.    Once we decide what plants/pots we want we’ll have Saied back to do that. Can’t wait for next spring to use the garden.
