FA Cup First Round Proper draw - Dulwich Hamlet vs Carlisle United, Fri 8th Nov 2019

[Roger D]

I suspect the club did that intentionally to try and boost the number of tickets going to regular fans. Most DHFC fans will know other DHFC fans . I suspect the hope is that those who don't need the second ticket will pass it to another fan and not a mate who has never been before.

Once we hit open sales, anyone who isn't banned from the stadium can rock up and get a ticket. We'll probably get more DHFC fans in by keeping the general sales figure lower, IF our fans pass on spare tickets to other genuine fans.

Sadly whatever the club do, some fans are likely to miss out as open sales are a bit of a lottery. Selling inside the ground on a match day should help weed out some who just want to watch the big game.

Fingers crossed for any regulars who aren't in the Trust or a season ticket holder.

I was there at about 8-ish last night and the bar was pretty busy with people watching the Liverpool-Arsenal match. No queue for tickets but a steady flow of people coming in and out. I didn't have to show photo ID for my ticket, so not sure if that's something they're bothering with.

 

[EDC]

Some of us were there to watch Chelsea and United actually.

I guess the question now is how early do you need to get their on Saturday for the doors opening at 12!

It's going to be a long day with the rugby, and Bath match!

Basically, leave after the rugby and get in the queue. It can be a party in the line.

Well yes now you say it. Conga in. Tango out.

I actually fancy watching it on the telly to see what it looks like live. It will be a once in a lifetime opportunity to see your team on the TV. Looking forward to not queuing, wave at the cameras!!!

I know what Pitchfork means. It's strangely frustrating that we're live on the BBC but I won't get to watch it!

[pitchfork]

Yep seriously, log fire on cold beers in the fridge and a nice takeaway and pink and blue scarf on with the Hamlet on HD!

 

[scousedom]

Also being at the game is crap for watching VAR.

I look forward to more of your Gavin out statements after we lose and throughout the seasons to come.

I guess it’ll be on iPlayer for a while?

Will Peter Crouch be in the studio? That would be cool. As long is it isn't Pardew

 

[Roger D]

I was outside the ground with Paul Hobdell, a name old timers will recognise, when Alan Pardew drove up for his first game in his second spell with us. The two hadn't met for eleven years. Alan got out of his car, walked over and said "hello Paul".

I thought that to remember the name of a DHFC volunteer, after the way his career played out, spoke volumes about him as a human being.

Agreed. Pardew can fuck off.

No. It's Micah Richards and Karen Carney in the studio with Dan Walker presenting, according to next week's Radio Times.

 

[jimbarkanoodle]

Thumbs up for Dan Walker

Gantry’s are up.

my beautiful wife will be pitchside watching, whilst I will be in Condom, SW france with cheese and wine watching. Its amazing that this is actually happening, feels a long time ago when I first went to Dulwich about ten years ago. Forward the Hamlet. Pressure!

Ohhhhh that French place name very much appeals to my juvenile sense of humour.

I’d rather be in a condom than fucking Leeds where I’ll be.
