It's also worth noting that the Isthmian League starts it's season on Saturday 9th August, so there's a good chance we may have a midweek game ourselves that Tuesday...

What's this FIFA thing? Some sort of modern computer game, where you endorse Blatter, while pretending to hate him? You'll be wearing a green and yellow scarf while munching on prawn sandwiches at Old Trafford yet... ;-)

I always preferred the antithesis of FIFA, the very unofficial, cheap looking but silky smooth gameplay of Pro Evolution Soccer before it became bad (Mike and I are still playing Pro Ev 4 even though it's 10 years old).

Fake names like Rodalno and Van Mistelboum. So that would have left Dulwich with Woodpecker in goal, Voyeur at right back, Crack in Midfield and Ozbumbag at number 10.

That was the pinnacle, Pro Evo 4. I won a university tournament on that game. Challenge?
 
Your boy played his first Posh friendly at Barnet this afternoon (still with his magical pink boots) and did you chaps proud. Couple of duff short balls and dispossessed once but otherwise very impressive indeed with his touch and movement. Met his lovely parents and agent too which made my day as I've been feverishly campaigning for him to be signed by Posh since last March.

Astonishingly, like the only flourishing cannabis plant in a students' bedsit, he's managed to grow another two inches already thanks to all the diligent nurturing! http://www.peterboroughtoday.co.uk/...ut-to-make-a-big-impression-at-posh-1-6174141

Off to Portugal next week then we have more serious pre-season games against Wolves, Brighton and Charlton (deliverance!) respectively. I'll report back as and when Erhun tears the Championship defenders new arses.

Forza Tuscany!

So, no Dulwich game on Tuesday 12 August. Who's up for an afternoon out at Pompey and then Fratton Park for Erhun's League Cup debut?

I'm happy to book anyone ticket in the Fratton End. Although, I expect some of you might want to go into the Posh end, despite the fact they profit through owning the patents on a range of the most mutilating cluster bombs. Have that on your conscience.
 
It will be a dash for me, as I'd finish work at five. Is that possible by train? Would be at Waterloo at about half five, if I went. Can you get tickets for the away end, or would we have to book one through Peterborough?

Best if you get from cluster bomb murdering Peterbrough if you want tickets for away end. 5.30pm train is fine for getting to the game in time. It'd get you to Fratton for 7pm and it's a 10 minute walk to ground. Last train at just before 10.30 gets you back into Waterloo at 12.30.
 
I see Mishi has posted a short Pitchero piece on 'Erhun's Bright Start' at Posh. Unfortunately this a bit of an overstatement.

Erhun played 45 pretty lively minutes in our very first friendly at Barnet (before pre-season training camp) and sustained a groin strain that has proved persistent as he's tried to hone his fitness levels. Despite an intial continuation of his pre-season programme, he wasn't named in the squads for any of the subsequent five friendlies. This is all rather depressing when considered with the otherwise very positive feedback from the training ground - further to this, most Posh fans have bought into the (justified IMO) hype big-time and there's something of a clamour to see him play (they've bought, of all things, a hundred Fez hats to greet Erhun for a Saturday FL debut that he's actually now unlikely to make).

Not all gloom however. Last night, a plainly rusty magician appeared at St Neots in our final friendly and this was the first time that at least a couple of hundred Posh fans have had the opportunity to see him play. I had big reservations that he should be playing at all and was worried that he wouldn't do himself justice. A couple of hundred seconds after the kick-off, a trademark 20-yard direct free-kick was popped over the wall and into the net . Thereafter, he bustled as best he could for the remaining 42 minutes (the whole line-up was changed at HT) but was, I felt, operating at only 60% of Total Turk Power. He would have single-handedly taken the same opponents on a one-way excursion to the fucking cleaners a few months ago.

My pressing message to you guys who are contemplating making a trip to Portsmouth on Tuesday is to check the team news fastidiously before committing. He may well be on the bench but I would think his prospects of starting that fixture are fairly low at the moment.

Best of luck against Harrow on Saturday!
 
The 'I heard a rumour, Erhun Oztumer...' song has been evidently and obviously inconspicuous from our hymn book thus far but I miss it, and the player that goes with it. Its good to know that even below his best he is causing danger. On a day that Dulwich aren't playing I'm sure a sizeable few will take the chance to see him play wherever possible. Here's to you sankara...

I'll think I'll risk it and just go.
 
We duly trooped up to Rochdale yesterday with our Turkish Cypriot flags and fez-hats, creating a slightly bewildered response from the locals. Rather disappointingly, despite being told in the week that he was fit for match selection, Erhun didn't even travel with the squad - "not being risked yet" was the official explanation.

I'd seriously consider giving Tuesday a miss if I was you.

It's MK Franchise FC at home for us next Saturday, also a long shot I reckon owing to this persistent groin issue. I'll keep you posted though :)
 
Didn't realise MK Dons had changed their name. But then I suppose it's so they're not confused with the Kingston Dons...

They get called allsorts and will continue to do so until they drop their unacceptable use of another club's name. It's not just a belligerent act, it's also rather fucking daft when you think about it.

I meant to share this earlier but forgot. It's not Erhun's first league goal, but it's his first goal for a league club (at St Neots last Tuesday evening).



He maintains his Champion Hill link by augmenting his blue kit with pink boots.

Hope he's in the first-team picture soon, thanks for the vid!
