If this is your sort of thing, do head over to Peckham and support it. And if it's not, come to Champion Hill and watch the women's team batter Chatham instead #dhfc

An important post about this Sunday. Come join us at the training ground behind Champion Hill, it should be a lovely afternoon supporting the ressies. Also, bring buckfast. #dhfc
The Pepper Army do not acknowledge the existence of the team from Milton Keynes so won't be going.

Thankfully the Ressies are playing Clapton at 1:30pm on Sunday 22nd March at the Training Ground. Free entry and BYOB. See you there.

Do the Pepper Army count as "ultras"? DHST board member Alex Wilson was a guest on the Football Heritage Podcast to talk about fan groups across football, how the Dulwich Hamlet fan scene is evolving, and what makes our football club special. Listen here: open.spotify.com/episode/2n6b... #dhfc

I‘m not exactly sure about the ‚losing is shrugged off‘-bit, but it‘s a neat breakdown of the roots and how to preserve them, I think. It might be a good read for @dhstorg.bsky.social, @pepperarmy1893.bsky.social, @curvacarwash.bsky.social & all involved with @altona93.bsky.social. #dhfc #Altona93

Today we play an opposition supposedly from Milton Keynes, a disgrace of a team that shouldn't even exist. A stolen football club that destroyed the work put in by a community for a century, whose existence is an embarrassment to everyone in football. Turn them over and show no mercy x #dhfc

If you enjoyed that, how about making women's football a weekly thing? It could be support us (yay!), it could even be going out to watch a WSL team (boo!). But either way, women's football doesn't continue to grow and progress without good people on the terraces. See you there? #Lionnesses

Right, think I managed not to mess it up this time
Today’s L&SERWFL Trophy final between Dulwich Hamlet Women Reserves and Clapton CFC Women was abandoned with Clapton winning 2-0 after fans from both clubs refused to remove Palestine flags and a banner reading “Show Genocide The Red Card”. 
We want to unequivocally state our support for the fans of both clubs who refused to bend to the demands of final hosts Maidstone United FC, and every player who refused to play if the flags and banners were removed. 
The facts in Gaza are clear and widely accepted: the death toll in Gaza since October 2023 is estimated to be over 54,000; a United Nations Special Committee and Amnesty International have both concluded that the state of Israel is perpetuating a genocide against the Palestinian people in Gaza; this week the UK government issued a joint statement with the leaders of France and Canada calling on the Israeli Government to stop its military operations in Gaza. 
Sport has long played an important role in putting pressure on governments perpetrating human rights abuses, from South Africa during the apartheid era to Russia since its invasion of Ukraine. Those who argue that political protest does not belong in sport are either ignorant or are deliberately ignoring that history. 
This is particularly true in the women’s game — access to the game has always been political, and even now, women continue to fight for the right to play football.
We don’t protest at our games because we think one protest in a regional football competition will change what is happening in Gaza. But we do it knowing that every protest joins a drumbeat of defiance that is slowly convincing the world it cannot ignore the daily murders perpetuated by the state of Israel.  
We are, for the avoidance of any doubt, against genocide, against anti-Semitism, against Islamophobia, and against prejudice in all its forms. 
We are proud of the behaviour of Dulwich Hamlet fans today, and we are equally proud to join hands with the fans of Clapton CCFC, who hav…

Today's L&SERWFL Trophy final vs Dulwich Hamlet Res has been abandoned. The presence of Palestine flags among both sets of supporters was deemed unacceptable by the venue and the game was duly called off. Clapton CFC were 2-0 up at the time through goals from Emily Link and Egle Trezzi.
