Dulwich Hamlet’s league season seems to be fizzling out into a long exasperated sigh, with the pink and blues losing to the most out of form team in the league on Saturday.

On the bustling Dulwich Hamlet forum, fans added their thoughts:

PP: We lost 2-1, with all the damage done in the first 25 minutes to leave us trailing 2-0 to opponents with just a single point and 3 goals scored in their previous 8 matches.

The first goal looked very avoidable as we came unstuck playing short passes at the back.

Millsy pulled one back on stroke of half-time with one of his “helicopter” headers, hanging over his marker to convert a Payne corner.

The second half opened with Hamlet forcing four more corners in succession, but despite piling on the pressure for much of the remaining time, we couldn’t find another goal and Lewes had some decent chances on the break with Bull making one outstanding save.

Playing against the most out of form team in the division after winning 4 of our last 5 in the league, this result illustrates why we’re basically a decent mid-table side rather than promotion contenders.

After last season’s fiasco I’d have settled for being where we are right now, with a base to build on for next season, and at least the result more or less ensures we get another trip to Lewes next season.

KP: ‘The first goal looked very avoidable as we came unstuck playing short passes at the back.‘

Dangerous and boring to watch, as is continually sailing the ball over the top after it.

Are we safe yet? If so let’s see more attractive, positive football.

DSD: It was a lazy , underachieving, end of season performance. Quite a few of these need to be off-loaded.
