Former Billericay owner Glenn Tamplin takes over Romford FC

Definitely more numbers I reckon. A couple of seasons ago I recall a Billericay fan on their message board commenting that "I wouldn't mind the numbers they [Dulwich] get, but I wouldn't want the type of supporters they get." (Presumably women, children, ethnic minorities and anyone else who doesn't fit the 'football fan' sterotype of being a locally born and bred working class white bloke who's followed the club since childhood?)
Presumably? There could not be other perfectly legitimate reasons? :)
 
Companies House records show Liam isn't a Director of either DHFC Ltd or DHFC Shareholding Ltd. He resigned both Directorships in 2018.
 
I could reword it to say affiliated to the club in an official capacity but I’ll just take the L. You’ve been very helpful lads thank you.
 
Thanks. I try to be respectful to people and my response was just to show more of a comparison with Ebbsfleet than merely a stadium. I believe there is much to like about the stadium but there is much I don’t believe many would want for Dulwich.
I understand fans frustrations with media and communication and would agree with much of the complaints. The new full time employee responsible for that has already been on the forum seeking to build bridges and I would strongly recommend sending him messages outlining concerns and suggestions.

Upon the wreckage of thy yesterday. Design the structure of tomorrow and all that.
Or just start supporting Aveley?

Mark Baker. He's a piss taker
A barrel scraper
But he's having a ball ache...r
Because he's a fake...r
He needs a deal maker
Cos his team are going down like Freddie Laker
Needs porridge, but not like a quaker
He misses GT the drug taker
Promotion dreams dissapeared like vapour
His tory uncle is Philip Baker
FF sake...r.

I don't know if anyone else read the article about GT in The Athletic, but I thought it didn't really capture the full majesty of the man and his works.


An excerpt:

"This was a man who lived in a £10million house in the Essex village of Abridge — later named ‘Bliss Heights’ after his wife — with a collection of sports cars out the front, and he was not shy about making his mark on Billericay, either.

Craig Edwards, the club’s manager for the previous seven years, quit within three months, citing too much interference from Tamplin, and the owner took his place in the dugout.

In February 2017, former Premier League players Paul Konchesky and Jamie O’Hara joined Billericay, the latter following a stint on TV’s Celebrity Big Brother reality show alongside the likes of Bianca Gascoigne, daughter of former England footballer Paul, and Jedward, identical-twin Irish singers with distinctive haircuts who appeared on The X Factor in 2009.

“I was meant to be going to Las Vegas that week,” O’Hara told UK newspaper The Independent, “but Glenn said, ‘I want you to play on Saturday, we’ve got a massive game (against Dulwich Hamlet), so cancel your holiday because I need you in the team’. I wanted to show them that commitment and I wanted to be involved.”"

A description of the famous Muriel is included, but not a photo, which seems a terrible oversight. I hadn't realised that his house is in Abridge. Not really Essex, more Chigwell adjacent. A very good golf shot distance from Alan Sugar's pile.
