Dulwich Hamlet FC tour of Holland/Germany 1912

According to the Hamlet Historian Jack McInroy -

At the start of the Easter holiday weekend of 1913, the Dulwich Hamlet football team set off for a short continental tour. This was nothing new, in fact it had become customary over the previous five seasons – four tours to the Netherlands and one to Germany.

The team included
Coleman, Clegg, Wight, Popple, Carson, Hegazi, Clarkson and Green played in all three matches. Knight, Smart, Barker and Lawrence played in two. Hagger played in one.

Hussein Hegazi was Dulwich Hamlet's, Egyptian inside right,

Hussein Hegazi (14 September 1891 – 8 October 1961) was the first African player to play competitively in England (Dulwich Hamlet from 1911-1914 and once for Fulham in 1911)

Can we have an EDC of the day photo? Like divot of the day on Brixton Buzz...

 

[Dulwich Mishi]

That would be a great idea...but I think it would be un-practical, with both yourself & vornstyle76 hogging the cameras each week!

Personally, I have no interest in any of the history of other local sports clubs, unless there is a specific Dulwich Hamlet connection involved, for the purposes of this thread, which is entitled Dulwich Hamlet History Notes.

ONCE AGAIN...can you PLEASE list the sources of where you are getting these from!!!!

 

[Dulwich Mishi]

And why would the date be "Dulwich Hamlet FC V Walton On Thames (Circa December 1945" as the War was over by then, thus there would not have been air raids...

Thank you...we don't all time to trawl the internet, never mind look on Ebay, so it's good to find out where these all originate from. Even more so when it comes to newspaper articles.

With regard to the 1945 thing, yes it might have come direct from a seller's quote on Ebay...but I am sure you knew it was inaccurate, so it's comes across as annoying (in my view) for you to repeat the error on here, without mentioning that it is clearly wrong.
