Dulwich Hamlet 0 Worthing 2, 25/08/07
 Rock on, Tommy! |
Fitting that the fragrant mrs onionbagblogger was sitting next to me - Rabbit, Rabbit, Rabbit etc...
But Oh darling, there 'aint no pleasing you... or the pink 'n blue home crowd. 0-0 at half time, and that was with the full belts and braces defensive treatment from Dulwich. To say Worthing were unlucky is like saying that braces are back in fashion. Which apparently they are.
Rock on, Tommy!
A read through of the team changes at half time by the Voice of Champion Hill revealed that 'Worthing's number 4 has swapped with Worthing's number 5.' What is this? South London non-league Swap Shop? Either way, the Worthing number four wasn't exactly troubled in the first 45 minutes, and neither was the Worthing number 5.
It wasn't the best start to the Bank Holiday weekend. In an attempt to relieve the boredom, I put on my headphones, just in time to hear that 'Stockport have equalised against Rotherham!'
Now I'm no fan of Northern clog football, but compared to the Chas and Dave comatose-fest at Champion Hill, I made a mental notes to go whippet racing next weekend.
A kid wearing a Real Madrid away kit sitting in front of me headed off for the toilet.
'Don't go,' chirped his little mate. 'You may miss a goal.'
Given the kid's choice of kit, I was rather hoping that he would miss a goal, but there was more chance of me becoming a braces boy.
But the wee fella was back in his seat in the 78th minute, bang on cue to see Worthing take the lead. A brace with five minutes remaining from Worthing and the season ahead for Dulwich looked about appealing as a Chas and Dave convention.
Without Chas.
Or Dave.
Gertcha.
