    As someone who was part of that "rabble" Jack Linsdell can retrospectively go and f**k himself.

    The Rabble is the name given to the vocal Dulwich Hamlet fans.

    Interesting to see the evolution of reporting. As much as Mr Linsdell was completely out of touch, fairly certain papers wouldn’t publish roads where people live these days in pontentially inflammatory pieces

    Good point made there Mr Bartram, aged 58, of 23 Cherry Tree Avenue, Bexleyheath

    It’s odd, what was the rationale for printing the street? I get why you might say so and do live in Kidbrooke, but printing the specific street sounds like a recipe for disaster.

    Different times, you would regularly have people like Mr Lindsell address in the programme and telephone number

    Crazy! But why would that happen? So people could write to them? If so I guess it’s similar to publishing a Twitter handle (with some slightly scarier potential consequences!).

    Oi! That's my address.  I'd better check that he's not living rent-free in the attic.

    Bound to be unrest and upset people in attendance, what did they expect, just a good spirited chat over a glass of Pale Ale...well done to "The Rabble"...
    Shame on not one of the directors even  bothering to turn up for this...at least Lennie had the fan's concerns in mind...

    Proud to be Rabble 
    Proud to be a vinegar pisser.

    I'm still here and that pair of clowns are gone.

    Back in the day, revealing Jack lived in Kidbrooke would probably frighten off anyone who fancied having a go.

    It’s true that many peoples home phone numbers were in the programme in those pre-digital days. I had to ring Bill Treadgold one night to see if there was room on the coach the following evening, I got the reply “Course there is, who do you think we are, Man Utd?!”
  • On the subject of addresses, always interesting watching re runs of The Big Match, and the late great Brian Moore reading viewers letters…

    ”we’ve had a letter from Paul Smith of 15 Hanover Gardens, Acton, West London…”

    This almost perfectly encapsulates why I can't stand DH despite them being my (very) local club atm

    Talking of fan power…….
    Curbs departure article on Talksport.

    Thank God for that.

    I called up LBC once to say it was bollocks.

    A small minority of callers to 5 live etc and club hopping 'Kelvins from Sevenoaks' probably perpetuated this myth but the vast majority of Charlton with any nous surely knew Curbs value and that he had us massively punching for years.

    Would it have killed you to turn up to one fundraising disco?

    Ok don’t take this seriously, but….

    Look at the dateline. Oct. 31st. It never gets mentioned, but there had been another CASC meet before that in September soon after the announcement. Where were you rabble rousers for that one, eh? I went along, assuming it would be like this one. There was an agenda. The words “The Valley” didnt feature. Everyone just banged on about away travel stuff and all that. I sat there simmering and thinking “Its all away travel now, you numpties” and finally grabbed the mike and became a one-man rabble. There was a glacial response from the assembled 50-somethings and “Thank you, next question please”, The only glimmer of a reaction came from two young guys standing at the back wearing faint knowing smiles. A year or so later I discovered they were Airman and Steve Dixon. 

    Mind you i never went to the later one and I can’t really recall why not. Looks like I’d already written off my fellow fans and given up, as I boycotted Selhurst until my Dad talked me into going along for the Sheff Utd match.

    Whatever. I’m the original rabble and you’re all the glory-seekers😉
