Dulwich Hamlet Transfers Summer 2020

Oh yes - good spot:


Fjölnir in the Icelandic top flight. Looks like they are rock bottom after 13 games. That's a shame.
 
Monokana is heading to Iceland it seems. Grainger is injured I heard.

Interesting. I had a hunch that players at our level would explore opportunities playing abroad.

Monokana is off to Fjölnir, who play in the Icelandic top flight. Fair play to him.

Amended on previous list.

That's a shame, I rated him but he never quite built up real momentum last season due to several brief interruptions through injury. His ability to consistently beat a man on either side and deliver an accurate cross, or shoot, with either foot sets him apart from most at our level.

At least if Charlie Grainger is attending games he must still be a possibility, which would give us a more than adequate goalkeeper, but if his injury may keep him out for a while I guess we can't commit to offer him a contract given the uncertainty over everything that affects revenue and cashflow.

I really liked Monakana. I know you've made the comparison before, but the last winger we had like him was Ellis Green. I think it's really rare to find a consistent winger at this level, but I thought they both stuck to what they were good at - unfortunately like you say Monakana's season was disrupted through injuries and it looks like this has been the case at previous teams as well.

There‘s definitely an attraction to playing in Iceland at the moment what with the place being Covid free at the last shout.. There have been posters up on walls in Peckham for some time looking for players for one Icelandic team paying about €2000 a month plus accommodation if my memory serves me right? Not even sure if they are a top flight team either?
 
Jack Connors has been on trial back at his old club Dagenham. Dunno if they'll sign him

Paul McCallum there too. Wouldn't mind having him back one day.
 
Patrick Ohman is in goal for Carshalton today so looks like he's no longer in contention for the keeper spot.
It sounds like Charlie Grainger is still around but nursing a hand injury. Maybe James Pardington is lined up for a Maynard-Brewer role until he's fit? (He had a loan spell at Bath City last season.)

I noticed Carshalton won their FA Cup tie 5-1, Omar Koroma got one of the goals. Unlikely Ohman is still on our radar now he's cup-tied.
 
On the basis of last season Grainger is the best goalkeeper in our division. I'd like to see him distribute the ball earlier but it seemed not to be a tactic we as a team employ.
 
Is this the bloke who played at Sutton on Tuesday? Sounds like a prospect if it is:


Given that Dapo Olarewaju, Sandro Embalo and James Pardington were named on the teamsheet, while three others were listed only as triallists, I assume we're expecting to have these three in our squad. (Pardington presumably on loan from Wolves as cover for Grainger.) Just in case anyone is confused, "David Bondo" is Kuagica.

I'm not sure it's easy to judge the best keeper when you see most of them only once or twice a season. Quite a lot of supporters at various clubs seem to regard their own keeper, who they see every week, as the best. I think Jack Turner of Slough was voted into the divisional team of the year and he's always impressed me both at Slough and Staines. Charlie is certainly good enough though, and I'm delighted we've kept him.

Preston Edwards was especially good at distributing the ball quickly and accurately, particularly when receiving backpasses that couldn't be picked up, but even when he was playing it seemed to be more of a tactic to kick the ball long than throw it out to feet in this division compared to the lower level.
 

Fantastic to see Reise back playing football and with us to boot!

From his Twitter feed looks like he got back to running a few months ago and has been training at Coventry through the restart.

As has been said, he absolutely deserves some good fortune.
 
Updated list. I would think Embalo, Musampa and Sammut are the most likely of the triallists to stick around going by reports, which would give us a squad of 19 if they're all included.
