Not a great game - Dulwich just didn't seem to get going. Plenty of effort, but that passing game that I have possibly taken for granted just didn't click today. Not sure why - it was the perfect weather conditions for playing it around.
I was still smiling come the final whistle. The crowd keeps on growing and Bognor seemed like half-decent fans. Great work from The Rabble folk who kept the singing going right until the end. It looked like the players really appreciated it.
And somehow we are STILL top of the league

I learned about this wonderful drink in Ireland. The punks over there (one of them used to live with us in Altona for a couple of months) introduced it to me and said: "Buckfast makes you fogged fast!"
But as you know, my English is not the best and so I misunderstood them and answered later: "Buckfast makes you f**k fast!"
I think I made their day...

Gutted about the result today. Bognor were a decent team. We did our recent usual thing of not starting playing until the second half. We can still do it but we really need to get our form back. Wealdstone winning today brings the reality into sharp focus - one point behind us and 5 games in hand, with a massively superior goal difference… 
But we can still do it….
I brought 11 new people along today. They all loved it without question, despite the result. I reckon most people on this thread have brought plenty of new mates to games over the past few years. The Kingstonian fans were moaning on their forum the other day about how their club was all marketing and no substance….and they were jealous of us. Not only have Gavin Rose, Junior Kadi, the players & all the DHFC staff made this possible by putting on great football and making Champion Hill our home; us fans - old and new - have played our part too.
We have a great club and a great community - big up to all concerned.
Great voice today.

I had their Blenheim Black IPA in the Gowlett a few weeks back when the Bury Town game was called off, but didn't realise it was so local. Very nice it was. Must check out this new brewpub.
Incidentally I believe the Gowlett will be returning to the Good Beer Guide for next year and has been shortlisted for this year's local CAMRA Pub of the Year award.

Yesterday was my first taste of the stuff since I lived in Belfast. Proustian Rush.
I sense a growing dichotomy between fans who enjoy a well crafted ale and those of us who prefer a bit of rocket fuel...
I note the bursting blood vessel detail on my neck. I thought only enraged skinheads got those.

It's not really a brewpub. It's just a brewery with some tables put up on Saturdays. The owner said he plans to open up more regularly from April / May.... Good news that the Gowlett is set to get back in - there is tough competition in south-east London. The Ivy House deserves to be pub of the year though!

I do want to add, however, how much I'm enjoying the Hamlet Crap Match Reports recently. Along with the Brixton Buzz ones, I reckon they'll become valuable pieces of historical artefact, charting the early days of Dulwich Hamlet's unexpected and unstoppable rise. Or possibly just Oztumer's.

they were a bit rough round the edges...someone down the fox showed me some pics and said they tore down some of the advertising boards and smashed a few things at the end of the game....did anyone see that?
BUT it was also great to see a loud vocal support from the opposition as we don't usually get that.....

Aye, they had a good turnout and were plenty noisy. I saw them break an advertising hoarding after the second goal, but gave them the benefit of the doubt and put it down to innocent post-scoring euphoria (walls, anyone?) rather than dangerous hooliganism. How you would accidentally break an advert I don't know though...

According to the mainstream Hamlet forum their chairman immediately offered to cover the cost of repairing any damage. Hamlet fans often bang on boards, fences, stands etc. to generate noise and sometimes they just aren't as sturdy as they look! On one occasion at Bognor a load of us were banging on the corrugated sheeting at the back of the covered terrace at the far end when a section several yards long completely shattered, revealing a Hamlet fan with his trousers unzipped having what was intended to be a discreet piss behind the stand. I notice there's now a much stronger fence about three feet high in front of the fibre glass sheeting at that end.
Probably around 120 from Bognor on Saturday, which is the third best travelling support at Champion Hill this season after Wealdstone and Maidstone. Of the remaining opponents Enfield Town and Kingstonian should bring a fair few.

yeah great to see that many down..... lets hope we can take as many/more down to Wealdstone.... and Maidstone this weekend!

those ad boards take quite a beating anyway, i'm surprised more of them haven't gone tbh.
