Rio Ferdinand tries to buy Dulwich Hamlet

The property developers who own the land won't sell, have cut off funding and won't even give them their sales from the bar.

Looks like they are going to have to ground-share somewhere next season.

Disgusting behaviour from the owners. And I thought Roland was bad.

But they are property developers - what do people expect ?

if Dulwich Hamlet are worth £10m maybe Roland isn't mad want as much as he does......... (he definitely is a mad old prick)

The land is worth 10 million. The club's value is not calculable.

Property developers really are cockroaches.

Scumbags.

What a shame. I've never seen the current stadium but my Dad played for Dulwich Hamlet when I was young and have some fond memories of the club.

Filthy thieving scumbags the lot of them. I live just down the road in SE23 and it'll be a real shame if they have to move. Where do you think they'd end up @Vincenzo? Millwall seems most likely based solely on proximity/with both being part of Southwark council.

Is there a way we (supporters of other teams) can get money to DHFC without it ending up in Medow's hands?

Played for Dulwich Hamlet many moons ago at reserve team level. Breaks my heart to hear this.

Good to see their supporters are already on the ball.

You can put money into their 12th Man Scheme. Run by the supporters, not Meadow.

Tooting, Carshalton and Fisher are possibilities.

PS: Go on their forum and talk to Mishi. He'll let you know how to donate.

Crowdfunding page set up as per @EastStand link above. Also as @Simonsen mentioned, the 12th Man scheme is nothing to do with Meadow and all funds received by them will be 100% used to keep the club going. You can follow them on Twitter @dhfc12
