Nine years ago, Four Four Two mag's review of Dulwich Hamlet's trip to Kingstonian read:
"At more than 450 the attendance is good, but it's also heavily boosted by over 100 travelling Dulwich Hamlet fans, who begin chanting before kick-off and only give up around Thursday morning"
This was a bloody great trip. Different world now, sadly.

Adrian Clifton on the scoresheet for Montserrat last night away to Barbados in the Concacaf National League.
Colour me cynical but what are the chances he’s ever been to Monserrat?

Sounds a bit like the National League, except no one got suspended there.

This individual is seriously weird. Even created a fake “Dulwich Hamlet” profile to post their spiel on the Moral Victory Facebook page.

So the FA Trophy 3rd Qualifying Round draw has slipped under the radar, understandably so as we have been drawn away to Cheshunt on Saturday 7th October

I hate cup draws like this. Away to someone in our own division the week after the same fixture in the league. It's the second season running this has happened, after last year's trip to Taunton, although on that occasion the league fixture was rained off.

Where do the K's play now? Corinthians Casuals ground?

Remind me, what's the Velocity cup? Is that the Isthmian league tournament? Is that the same as the Turvey ?
Tooting's ground. They left Casuals ahead of last season.

It is. They’ve tried to shine a Turv(ey) by renaming it.
Match has to be played by the end of October according to the Isthmian website.

Media volunteers needed
AveryDave

Fairly sure I remember a conversation on here before along similar lines, but do volunteers get any benefits from the club?Media volunteers needed
Free entry to games, discounts at the bar / club shop, travel expenses paid to away games, a signed shirt / football - anything like that?
And are there any guidelines as to what you need to commit to? Every game, half the games in a season, home but not away, whenever you can?
Can't help thinking that if a bit more information and detail could be provided it might be easier to get people interested.
And if the sole benefit is getting experience to take to a potential full time role with a league club, not every person is looking for that and not every volunteer role is going to offer it.

I did find the wording rather strange, it sort of suggests that they're only really looking for really ambitious, high achieving types looking to further their own careers and get full time media work at a bigger club rather than Hamlet fans looking to help out.
Anyway if there is an opening for the latter, I'd be happy to help out with match day photography if needed.

Not sure of all the benefits, but free entry is definitely one of them. Send Kian an email regarding the other questions. It's not only open to those wanting to further a career in media but also to anyone that wants to help and has the skills to do it. No commitment to X number of games, though if someone enjoys it it's always nice if they can do more

This is the bit I can’t get my head around - the club needs people to give up their time but apart from the occasional “We need volunteers, get in touch!” on social media it’s then all on the individual to take the initiative and find out what it all entails before they can assess whether it’s something they can do or not. And given the current paucity of volunteers that’s apparently not happening.Not sure of all the benefits, but free entry is definitely one of them. Send Kian an email regarding the other questions.

That the club isn't willing to proactively provide even basic information to try and get people interested fries my brain.

I wonder if next weeks games are going ahead with the international clearance issue as Montserrat and Guyana both have games from the Friday. I undestand Billericay have also been given the option by the league ( their manager's comments) to postpone next Tuesdays game to allow them to prepare for the FA Cup game. They are still deciding . How will their fans react if they do after their uproar when we postponed the game .

"Do we want a moral boosting win league win" - sounds like they're already counting the three points.

I'm guessing we won't request a postponement of the Kingstonian home game, as online tickets were recently put on sale. It would also leave us with a 5 week gap between the last home game and the next one, as well as losing the significant extra revenue from a Saturday game compared to a rescheduled Tuesday night match.
I find it hard to believe Billericay have been offered a postponement because of a home FA Cup qualifying tie with a lower level opponent 4 days later. If that's the case, the administrators who approved the rule really need to give their heads a wobble. It was bad enough when Weymouth were allowed to call off our home game last season ahead of their 1st Round tie, even though Ebbsfleet went ahead with a league fixture at Havant only 3 days before their FA Cup tie in the same week and won both games. It's basically an excuse for clubs to delay a league fixture until a time when they expect to have a stronger squad to choose from and a better chance of winning, it doesn't really have anything to do with preparing for the cup tie, although I don't blame any manager who takes advantage of the opportunity.
Personally I think the 2 international players rule is daft too, that's not enough in my view, although when Anthony Jeffrey (Guyana) is fit we could potentially have 4 players on international duty.
