One Hamlet fan added a load of his friends to that page as soon as we were promoted. I removed myself after about 30 seconds of reading drivel posted by morons who seemed to be competing to be more abusive than each other, and I think most others have done the same.

Margate's ground is terrible. They never did any worthwhile ground improvements when they were spunking a fortune on players and hiring Terry Brown as manager, but it's still a great day out.

Two years ago they were doing well to get 300 through the gate in total. Dulwich had a 3,000 all ticket game with no segregation and 1,000 away supporters, beer on the terraces three years ago against Maidstone. Treat people like responsible adults and most will behave accordingly and...

Which team has played these opponents? Concord are jousting for 7th place at best. Their manager is delusional if he thinks they'll do better than that. Obviously 7th gets you a lottery ticket.

Just spent a couple of days at Trent Bridge watching Surrey hammer Notts. I'm always prepared for any extremes of the British climate!

In fact Welling is probably almost as close to Dulwich as our temporary home at Mitcham: both about 7-10 miles. Like PVR, proper old's cool ground.

Cheers, did the Door Hinge at a pre-season game against Erith & Belvedere a couple of years ago. I love small basic bars like that. East Kent is certainly the place for micropubs, loads of them around Thanet. Certainly won't miss Welling on opening day. First time in 111 years we've been in a...

You've got a lot of other decent clubs worth visiting around that East Kent coast: Whitstable, Faversham, Margate, Ramsgate, Deal, Folkestone, Hythe. I'll miss those sort of trips following Dulwich now we're in the National League. If you like real ale pubs the Butchers Arms in Herne Village...

I think the biggest problem is the lack of certainty that this new stadium will ever materialise.

It's really just the novelty of going further West than ever before. I'd be equally excited about Workington or Blyth. They've recruited an inexperienced manager from the league below who did nothing special at Leatherhead on a big budget and has taken a load of Isthmian players with him. I'd...

Is this "next season" starting in a fortnight, or 2019/20? Really want to do Truro but Hamlet are duethere on FA Cup 1st Round weekend so there's a good chance it'll end up on a midweek in winter.

You'll get used to this kind of nonsense after a few weeks. The bloke just can't help himself. Someone I trust recently spoke directly to Wheeler and apparently he said he'll walk away if Tamplin starts interfering. "I want to be there as a rock and be there when it goes wrong." That's...

What is the going rate for adult admission in National South? Dulwich will be charging £12, I know some clubs will be £15,which seems a bit steep. I've just heard Woking will be £18.

Dulwich Hamlet still have only twelve players publicly confirmed for the coming season, so I guess more will be revealed when we see who appears for the first pre-season match at Walthamstow tomorrow. Looks like we're so short of numbers we're signing up supporters! Dulwich Hamlet’s new...

Surprised to get Welling away for Hamlet's first match in this league. We were never going to get them at Christmas with Dartford in the same division, but I expected that to be a midweek game. Annoying to have Truro away on FA Cup 1st Round weekend as it's impossible to plan in advance until...

It's the National League playing power politics. They complain about not getting more promotion places to the Football League, then they want to pull up the drawbridge now there's an additional division at Step 3. I'd just exclude 4th & 5th placed teams from the play-offs and have 2nd v 3rd...

It's a joke. I've just seen Dulwich promoted as play-off winners following a string of near misses. It was a great day for the club. Under the new system our victory over Hendon would only have earned us another play-off against Slough. There's only a 1 in 8 chance of winning the play-offs...

Pearce was a regular in a very good Bognor side that were Premier Division runners-up twice in a row and scored the decisive goal in the play-off final when they were promoted, so he looks like a great addition.

Haringey's crowds have been growing steadily from a small starting point and they've now been promoted twice in the space of 3 or 4 seasons. There's a massive niche market for semi-pro football in Inner London these days if grounds are close enough to community hubs and transport links.

Did someone seriously call their child Raven?
