DHFC noise disturbance, evening match

[beagle1]

Anyine else bothered by by the noise emanating from evening matches at Dulwich Hamlet Football Club? My kids were kept awake last night by the relentless drumming that accompanied last night's match (way past 9pm) even though we live half a mile away and had the windows shut. Must have been even worse for people living closer to the stadium. Is DHFC governed by any rules to curb noise, given that the stadium is in a residential area?

Cant make this shit up can you

Someone should start up Troll Bingo.

I'm guessing One Little Duck, number 2...Bob Buzzard

Funny how there were NO drums in the stadium last night,attendance was 617 of which about 80 were singing-doubt it would carry half a mile

It's even worse when they score, it gets louder.

And they wear pink

I suggest a new manager - one who will be tough on drumming.

South Americans are in vogue.

[Penguin68]

Surely tough on drumming, but more importantly, tough on the causes of drumming...

Hilarious suggestion that the drumming coinciding with last night's match came from anywhere but the stadium. Drumming carries! And children need to sleep. For the record, even my husband, a die-hard football fan and DHFC sympathiser, feels that drumming at evening matches is out of order. Disappointing but predictable attempt to shut down any discussion of a legitimate issue, at a time when it is proposed to enlarge the stadium.

I can assure you there were NO drums, I'm supervising steward at DHFC so know exactly what was going on, also game finished at 2140 so not well beyond 2100. As for residential, the local housing were built AFTER the stadium so any complaints aren't viable. Noise is allowed up until 2300 then we would clamp down but as the ground is empty by 2200 not an issue, morally nor legally.

You'll be pleased to know that there are no evening games until January, sleep well.

So... in other words you are guessing and dismissing the point of someone who was actually at the match who said there was no drumming.

And you wonder why no one will take you seriously.

So, in conclusion, the answer to the question in the first sentence of the OP's original comment is "No".

The answer to the question in the final sentence appears to be "No" also, at least with regards to non-drumming before 23:00.

Glad that's cleared up.

Not so fast. Here's a picture I took last night, just after the King of Camberwell had equalised.

Maybe it was the drumming of 614 pairs of feet on the terrace, that would be 1228 individual drums, now that would carry. There are even more evening games planned for next season due to DHFC success. Enjoy.

617, facts only please

[campbellchris]

Yeah, I was at the match, and there were precisely zero drums. There wasn't even any banging on the hoarding, which sometimes happens and could be construed as drumming sounds.

[????]

are you sure there weren't any one legged supporters?

[Bluerevolution]

There was a bit of banging on the hoardings but nothing significant, nice one Quids!!!

[Cyclodunc]

No drums were at the game so no idea what you're banging on about

[Otta]

One Saturday afternoon last season I had a nasty hangover and found myself stood right next to a lad with a drum, who hit it with relish throughout. Now whilst I would have happily stabbed him that afternoon, there is no way that the noise would have carried half a mile and through closed windows.

Haven't seen a drum there since.

Was this aimed at the OP or at me?

I think I just upset the Most Easily Offended person to ever step foot into East Dulwich.

Made all the more funnier by their own profile description: "Definitely NOT a "5 minute clueless c***"". If the clocks on both sites are correct, it actually took 13 minutes.
