Make no mistake, this is magnificent, even though I anticipated & advocated an increase. I have no doubt this freeze for full price tickets is purely down to us being fortunate in being chosen for a live televised game, and I for one more than welcome Dulwich Hamlet being televised.

Two weeks today! Can't believe it is so near. We could give a voucher to every away supporter at Chelmsford on Saturday, that would sort out the real rabble from the glory hunters...

Amid all the excitement, the following occurs to me...
It costs us £300,000 to be at Tooting for a year. We know this.
On the basis we have no guarantee we will be at Champion Hill beyond this season, we should attempt to build up that kind of sum as an insurance policy.
£75,000 in TV money, plus c£40,000 in prize money earned so far, sounds like a good amount in isolation. But in the context of what one season away from Champion Hill would cost is actually not that much.
Therefore I would like to know to what extent the Club are saving the (ongoing) FA Cup windfall to build up a reserve that would mitigate the potential financial damage caused by us not being at Champion Hill next season.

I’m not sure if you’re still on the Dulwich Hamlet Supporters Trust Board, if not you very recently were.
Perhaps ask the Trust Board representatives on the Board as I am sure they will be able to tell you more, rather than a request on here, where ‘business confidentiality’ or similar may prevent an answer...
Put scousedom and Dulwich Mishi together.
One advocates for everyone to pay more and one wants to create a rainy day fund.

Hold on, what? Have I missed something? I thought Meadow had let us back in and that was that? Coffee and muffins and jollity all round.

I haven’t been on the DHST Board since, er, June/July? Whenever the year ended.
The reason I ask in a public forum rather than privately is that this feels like a bigger question that the whole fan base should have an answer to. Two years ago £75k would have been a massive proportion of an annual budget. It’s not so much now, but as I said in the context of an emergency fund - which it’s not out of the realm of possibility that we’ll need - it’s, well, 25%. I think we should know if there is any thinking about saving for the very real prospect of a very rainy day.
And while I will ask this face to face if/when I can, the reason I left the DHST Board early (imminent arrival of another Hamlet fan - sorry) means I do wonder whether I’ll get to a game again this year.

Thank you. For the avoidance of doubt it was you I was directly apologising to. I just don’t know how to do the link thing.Congratulations
This might come as a shock to you but that’s how forums generally work, people can have differing opinions...
This might come as a shock to you but social media isn’t about projecting your own opinions into a void.
But in this case its good to know you advocated everyone paying more for a football game.
And it doesn't come as a shock to anyone that B.I.G and Dulwich Mishi are arguing again....
I couldn’t be more pleased that he survived to see his dream fulfilled.
You are definitely coming to the game right?

I see that on the Official Carlisle site it says they have been allocated 500 tickets including 50 Seats
Now to put them in a corner near the turnstile. A tiny corner.
I understand the segregation will be similar to what was in place for Woking at home last season.

Any chance you could have a pop at the lottery numbers too?

About as fair as they can make it! Up early to join the queues on Saturday, if there are any tickets left.

I have a concession season ticket, but I do not have any photo id. Will they accept any other id. eg , birth certificate? bank card?
