DefinetlyGet out of Gaol card?
Sure it was going to end 1-1. Left early to get train. Oops!Didn't think the 1st half was too bad, the equaliser seemed to really knock the stuffing out of us and the second half wasn't good at all
That late evening service is so annoying, with the "missing" trains when the Beckenham Junction part of the service goes hourly. I caught the 2153 to South Bermondsey with about 90 seconds to spare.Sure it was going to end 1-1. Left early to get train. Oops!
Wait til you change onto the chaos that is Thameslink / GN! Thanks for the warning about Beckenham service.That late evening service is so annoying, with the "missing" trains when the Beckenham Junction part of the service goes hourly. I caught the 2153 to South Bermondsey with about 90 seconds to spare.
Incidentally the Beckenham Junction line seems to be down for the next few weekend home games, so it'll only be half hourly between London Bridge and Tulse Hill instead of 4 trains an hour on that stretch.
Ice baths and 2500 crowd are match winners
Highlights here:Thanks for that, I'm not sure what he wants if he deserved more than a draw but didn't deserve the win - I think the interviewer could have pushed him harder on that point. Joking aside, I think we take for granted how many people turn up to support Dulwich and how much other clubs look forward to playing in front of, probably, their largest crowd of the season and raise their game when they are here. I wonder if Hendon know why they don't get "2,500" and are content with 250 on a Saturday. I suspect a chat with the travelling faithful and a listen to some of their chants might give them some clues.
Highlights here:
I don't think you can blame their manager for being a bit emotional so soon after losing at the death like that, especially when there were two debatable penalty calls that both went against them. Our penalty looks like the sort of incident that may have led to a lengthy video review in a Premier League game, and it's still a bit of a lottery when that happens at that level. There didn't seem to be a particularly strong appeal at the time, but the referee was well placed. I had a close view of the earlier incident, which isn't included in the highlights. I didn't think their player was "looking for contact", as the referee apparently stated. If anything I thought Marshall was looking for contact, but he was crafty. He didn't stick an arm out to push the man, he didn't stick a foot in and trip him; he'd already been beaten for pace and sort of leaned in from behind without making any real challenge. If it had been our forward I'd have felt it was a foul without really expecting to get it.
I didn't notice what any Hendon supporters were chanting, but they've always seemed a generally decent lot in the past. I did look at their Facebook page and couple of halfwits were making the usual ill-informed comment about our club and supporters, as well as discussing the best ways to be annoying and antagonistic. One concluded they should bring England flags and sing God Save the King. (Seriously.) I'm not sure which nationality they think a majority of our supporters will identify with, if not England. It was the first time we've played them at Champion Hill for 7 years, so I guess we're a big day out for the tiny minority of village idiots.
