    Dogs in scarves, one dog wearing a club shirt (made for dogs). Women into ‘wellbeing,’ wild swimming and knitting yoghurt sitting on a yoga mat in the main bar - could have been a birthing mat as one had a baby that looked 3 hours old. Stood next to about 20 little kids from Dulwich prep school. Henry next to me said he supported Chelsea - probably because daddy owns most of the property round there.

    F/T: Dulwich 2 Hemel 1.

    Man of the match: A hipster wearing a pointy clown’s hat with pom-poms and one massive gold pirate’s earring.

    Some money round there.

    I called in at your place. Walked up the drive and knocked on the door. The butler opened it, looked down his nose and slammed the door in my face.

    I went to this game last season (or the last time they played it pre-Covid).

    Can't remember what Hemel call themselves (something like 'The Tudors'), but were the 'Tudor Ultras' behind the goal with their beatbox? Feisty bunch for non-league but not quite on the level of Harrow and Whealdstone!

    Very few from Hemel. The hipsters would have seen them off with some organic flares anyway

    *tuts* I'll have to have a word... he shouldn't even be opening the door to riff raff! ;-)

    Hope you had a good time though. Not been for some years for obvious reasons and not really kept on top with what they've been doing other than planning was permitted last year to allow for a new ground just behind this one.

    I was doing a spot of gardening and heard Dulwich had scored at least once, so did look out for the result at the end.

    I don't think the hipsters and lovelies knew what had hit them when the Hemel Massive started blasting out songs from a beatbox behind the goal!

    Hope you grabbed a pint of beer from Gipsy Hill or Brick Brewery when you were in the Supporters' Club.

    The dynamic has massively changed in the last decade. The first times we went had just 200-300 in the seated stand, the typical supporter was typically a 50-60 year old guy who had taken a day off from trainspotting (not the film) and brought several family packs of wotsits to see them through the action.

    You mean instructing the gardeners? Yes really good day out with my mate who's a Peterborough supporter.

    Superbly run operation, ale, food everything. A Dulwich fan coming to Oakwell would think they'd stepped back into the Jurassic period.,

    And everyone looked like they were having a good time whereas at any league game there's an undercurrent of financial worry that's infected everyone. You can feel how money has slowly but surely sucked the soul from the game.

    He was there! Might have had a photo with him. Might not have. Can't confirm.
