To go along the Garethwrexy route how about a score prediction too?

Were there really 389 there Tuesday? Does that include the missing Tooting fans ticket?

Garethwrexy's predictions are one of my favourite dulwich things. I predict attendance 666 and snow at half time.

if Gareth Wrexy ever discovers urban we're all fucked though. Dulwich to win 7-6 after being 6-0 down at HT and surviving a nuclear apocalypse.

I'm going to amend my guess to about 750 then. I expect it to be well up on last year for sure.

ATTENDANCE: Dulwich Hamlet v Harrow Borough - 607

 

[PartisanDulwich]

Attendance Record Today !

607 in attendance for the Dulwich Hamlet v Harrow game today, probably highest first home game attendance for 40 plus years

Compared to Conference South - only two clubs got higher gates
Wealdstone 706
Chelmsford 675

and only 3 in Conference North

Gates always start slowly due to summer holidays etc - and build

Attendance opening game 2013 was 542

Well done to everyone spreading the word

Why? Do you know him? Or are Dulwich Hamlet fans who enjoy participating in forms, despite not being the most articulate, and having mild learning difficulties, not allowed on this forum?

 

[G Man]

Anyone is welcome on any forum. If Gareth Wrexy ends up here then welcome to him. If he comes to a Dulwich game I'll shake his hand and have a chat.

Those are still actually pretty decent attendances for the level we were at that season. Plenty of Step 4 teams (just look in D1N!) struggle to draw three figures.

That average is skewed by the one massive crowd against Wimbledon, who probably contributed about 80% of those present.

The low point was Gavin's first season as manager in 2009/10. Average of 180, a low of just 103 against Burgess Hill Town, and a high of just 274 against Chatham, when the main stand was officially renamed the Tommy Jover Stand.

 

[PartisanDulwich]

So DHFC have gone from average of 180 in 2009-2010
in four years to
2013-2014 of 667

Think everyone should congratulate themselves on such an impressive achievement

We just need to keep moving forward

Excellent, I've never seen that clip before, maybe Mishi could post us his memories of the match.

 

[Dulwich Mishi]

Only if you tell me what Fatty Foulkes was like, when you saw him in goal for Chelsea...

Fantastic! Great to see some of the Hamlet's greatest ever players "brought to life" on film.

I love the old-fashioned phrasiology you get on things like that: "Bad weather attends cup final" I'm visualising some nasty grey rainclouds squeezing in through the turnstiles! The pitch looks such a mudbath I doubt the game would go ahead these days.

Dulwich Hamlet FC V Hing Kong Sing Tao Club

August 1947

Hamlet win 5-2 in front of a packed Champion Hill

 

[Monkeygrinder's Organ]

Over 800 tonight. Impressive for a midweek game.

 

[PartisanDulwich]

811 tonight

last year same game against Margate in September attendance 466

incredible attendances

 

[JTG]

There's clubs in the Conference National who'd be delighted with those crowds (Alfreton spring to mind)

 

[Dulwich Mishi]

Good away support, albeit very quiet away support. Reckon they prought 80 to 90.

Pleased to say I was at both matches as well as the Fisher v AFC Wimbledon record ground attendance match.

The real question is what is the lowest ever crowd and were you at that match? Or was it just Mishi on his own?

 

[EDC]

My first match I went to wasn't the best attended. I think it was against Wokingham in the League Cup around '85 and a 1-1 draw from (bad) memory, although most matches I went to around that time has pretty shitty gates.
