As predicted by George Osborne recently.

I am 69 and this has been going on since I moved to Champion Hill with my parents in the earlier 50's, why has the football suddenly become a problem. It never was.


Have people changed that much.


They used to let you in free at half time does that still happen?

"And we're talking about a club we'd like to see go up to new leagues etc which would involve the ground expanding from 1,000 to up to 5,000 supporter ground."


Now I really am puzzled by the lack of information from Cllr. Barber!


The current ground has a capacity of 3,000. As set by the London Borough of Southwark when the ground opened in 1992.


We were promoted to the Premier Division of the Ryman League in 2013. In 2013/14 our average home league attendance was 667. Last season our average home attendance was 1,070. And crowds have continued to grow this season, with this Saturday just gone being a season best of 2,249; for a home league average so far of 1,202. Our lowest league gate was a 555 figure, on a midweek night, when our crowds are lower, due to less of our young family orientated support getting out on schoolnigts, the crowd for the mythical drums night being only 617.


The proposed capacity for the new stadium is 4,000, as has always been mentioned as such in all preliminary public consultations with the developers. Perhaps Cllr. Barber could explain where he got the five thousand figure from?

    • Totally agree regarding not supporting chains. Gail’s was fine but last time I went in Feb this year, actually walked out Fayetteville looking at menu and waiting 15 minutes to even get glass of water and not busy at all. Staff gone down hill - sooner it goes the better… Always prefer to support non chains - so many lovely places with good food to choose from with pleasant staff who know about customer service and sadly, non English which says a lot for our culture, pubs are also becoming abit of a hit and miss affair but maybe just unlucky. At the end of the day all about the chef. Still abit unclear where new place is located - is it down the road from Goose Green where parade of shops are before Peckham Rye?  
    • Surely only where the local businesses offer clear advantages, otherwise you are rewarding what should be failure. I want to be served by a better bakery than Gail's, not a worse but local independent one. Certainly give a local independent some time to get the offer right, but don't buy goods which are worse and or more expensive just because the outlet isn't a chain. 
    • Let’s just boycott all chains in favour of local businesses.  Places like Gail’s popping up everywhere has a very damaging impact on small businesses. It’s just the same as the new empanadas place but on a bigger scale. I’ll say it a million times more, we hold the power with our choices. Let’s use our power to look after ourselves and our environment (which includes small local family businesses). And yes, I also love Chacarero.
