Notice served and Dulwich Hamlet locked out of ground

The fact that they registered their trademarks back in October says A LOT.

I worry they know they are going to lose the land to a CPO, so they are now determined there won't be a football club left to play on it..

If they did really think that, surely they’d have bitten the hand of the ten million offer from Rio et al??
 
How did they manage that? Someone has fucked up somewhere.
What actual trademarks/logos/colours have they applied for?
 
They're doing anything they can to ruin the club out of complete spite. Nothing else. This trademark thing is so low. It will be laughed out of court but it shows the depths they will go to to try and ruin the club.

True but taking it to a legal fight in the first place requires resources and finances and time, elements that Meadow will be well aware the club is short on. So it's basically trouble-making, right? They're piling the problems on, whether they stick or not, as it'll all help to hold the club's head under the water? That's what it looks like to me.

Are "Greendales IP LLC" the same thing as Meadow?
 
Spiteful behaviour. I lived in Dulwich for 10 years and whilst never a fan of Hamlet, I feel some affinity and a bit sickened by al this. Wish you all well in the fight and will be watching with interest.

I'm new here so sorry if this had been discussed before but I wanted to ask if you had a back-up ground in mind if you are no longer able to get back into Champion Hill and what are the available options for playing out the rest of the season?
Thanks in advance for your answers.

Yep, spot on - but they will lose.
 
Load of shit this is, so spineless.

Hope everyone takes faith in the fact we’ve put up a sweet fight at everything they’ve thrown at our club so far and they’re now pushing the panic button. Fingers crossed we can overcome this aswell.
 
What does this mean in practice?

Can the Boating/Ryman websites and other teams' websites/programmes still call us by our name?

If we have any more home games are we unable to print a match programme?

What about stadium announcers? Etc etc...
 
Lord Kennedy has been bloody brilliant in keeping up the pressure. he must be prowling the corridors of the House Of Lords with a scarf and camera phone in hand!

True, I was just trying to apply logic and reason to the actions of utter nefarious shysters. Which is pointless.
 
Anyone know how many tweets a phrase needs on Twitter in order for it to start trending? I'd like to make a suggestion that we try to get #MeadowOut trending in London by including it in as many of our Hamlet-related tweets as possible. Worth a try? Champion Hill is already trending at the moment so presumably it's do-able.

I'd suggest something like #savehamlet, #saveDHFC or #savedulwichhamlet might be better as not everyone is going to know that Meadow are the evil scumbags behind this.

Tell me how to do it and I'll post something on Twitter.

I'm going to have to add the club formerly known as Dulwich Hamlet to my favourites list.
 
Utterly shocked by what's come out over the past 24 hours or so - especially the trademark thing. Hoping that common sense prevails - good news does seem to be that Southwark Council are on your side - which is more than can be said with Barnet when we (Hendon) were made homeless.
 
The club have confirmed the licence has been withdrawn with immediate effect so unless that situation changes then yes we are on the road for the rest of the season. However the club also said they weren't sure it was legal and were consulting lawyers.

Jack Pitt-Brooke has tweeted that the club is investigating ground shares for remaining games.

Given how much things have moved in the past 18 hours I'm not sure anything can be described as definitely out for the season but at the moment it seems fair to say we are out unless something changes.
