Under Gary McCann this season we had a League win rate of 25% (24 games) and PPG of exactly 1 so if that had continued we would almost certainly have been relegated (46 points). Under Mel we have a win ratio of 42.6% (21 games with1 to go) and PPG of 1.38 which extrapolated over the whole season would see us finish around 12th.

Thanks Tony, interesting statistic and completely justifies the decision to change managers. Even if the injury situation improved which helped. What these stats don’t show is better standard of football.

Pain in the neck busy type of journey over there as the traffic's always awful. No thanks. Concorde and/or Dover can join them too!
Agree with this, always is so packed in there too.

I got a distinct impression there were some at Hampton (who have now left) who were very much inspired by the whole Dulwich matchday experience. Yes, there are some positive things about it, but the sheer number of people at their ground who just stand around chatting as though they are in a pub garden never ceases to amaze. This season I even saw one woman, her back to the game, in animated conversation with the rest of her group, actually turn round and scowl when reaction to an on-field incident disturbed her chat. Unbelievable. And they can keep their vastly overpriced but locally sourced burgers as well.
It's such a terrible view if you want to stand as well. No, they can go. Rant over...

Concord relegated after losing 4-3 tonight.

Dover entertain Weymouth on Saturday if the visitors win, then they would survive on goal difference.

Any one of Dover, Dulwich or Weymouth could still go down. If Dover and Dulwich lose then likely Dulwich will drop as they have the worst GD of the three.

Got to hand it to Concorde they battled so hard to even still be in contention last night, but it just wasn't to be. Sounds like they gave it their best shot against Havant, who are out of form but clearly still have some very good players.

So Dulwich go down and Weymouth stay up, so after a long season a club dropped into relegation for the first time and one jumped out of the relegation zone for the first time, such is the fascination of football.

Spot on there Shep.

That's why we all love it and keep coming back for more.

Dulwich were briefly in the bottom four earlier this season but not for long.
