Dulwich Hamlet vs Stonewall FC (Friendly) 11th Feb 2015

[pompeydunc]

Mishi sent it to me so you're ok thanks. It's going out in their newsletter this week. I might contact some more uni Lgbt societies tonight if nobody has done that yet? Goldsmith's and King's at least.

Please do! Link to joint press release is here - http://dhst.org.uk/about/the-board/trust-and-club-related-documents/

I work at Queen Mary, so if someones contacted the lgbt here and there is interest I'm more than happy to meet up and come down with them

 

[editor]

I'll run another feature on Buzz next week too.

 

[StephenMac]

I've recruited a load of LGBT workmates for the game. Interestingly, one lives with her partner a stone's throw from Champion Hill but has never been, but has become increasingly intrigued by the ever-increasing noise coming from the ground on match days and has been meaning to check it out. So there you go, a perhaps overlooked local marketing tool - the sound of the rabble!

During the away game vs Margate, one fan who was running late managed to find the ground from the train station by following the Rabble's racket.

Noisy bastards.

Does anyone want to take responsibility for contacting university LGBT groups? I've got fatherhood about to drop any day, so it's best I don't promise to do anything.

I once found my way to Harrow's ground by tracking the noise of the Rabble!

I struggled to find Harrow's ground this season even with GPS!

I used to keep a mini London a-z in my bag specially. The boom boom would bounce of other buildings, very confusicating if your already on your merry way.

If someone supplies a list of LGBT emails for societies across London & the home county universities..then I can do it. Just private message them to me, or email at therabblers@yahoo.co.uk

These are the emails of the university societies.

The only time I am helpful and everyone ignores me. Extreme sadface.

Well done 000. Sterling work! Can you email press release and poster to them and ask them to send out? Might want to check that Monkeygrinder's Organ has not already covered it.

Mishi volunteered - I am too lazy.

Lewisham college have a stand for lgbt awareness week 10th to 14th so they could promote the stonewall match in the first half of that week if they wished. Looking at their website they may do this each year rather than a formalised society.

The stonewall list although only a few are probably relevant.

Timeout lists some football teams.

I am sure you had these all anyway as I just got them from Google.

I've done Imperial College. No response after 3 emails

I was a bit slack tbh. I did UCL and Goldsmith's then got distracted.

Can you get undistracted to finish job, or do you need help from 000 ?

 

[Monkeygrinder's Organ]

Depends how thorough we want to be tbh. I'm happy to do a few more of the bigger ones this evening but I'm not going to go through every college in London.

 

[Monkeygrinder's Organ]

Also the article in the Guardian about the gay Arsenal v Spurs match mentioned a whole load of other gay fan groups. We could contact them? There was a Crystal Palace one.

I'm doing these ones.

 

[tasty_snacks]

Plugged to the LGBT network at work, they've promised to spread the word to twin organisations in the City. Hopefully another few dozen from that.

Just occured to me that my soon-to-be ex employers, with their hilariously disinterested in life itself HR department, don't have anything like this.

And I spoke to the Kick It Out people, and they've published it as an article by me, which they wrote from my phone call:

In relation to this. Anyone going to bring their other team flag / scarf tomorrow? In addition to dhfc of course.

Just mulling whether to bring London-Pompey flag.
